How Receptive Are We
How receptive are we
to taking a detour,
simply breaking routine,
for that’s how we may see,
the hitherto unseen?
How receptive are we,
to an opposing view,
outside our comfort zone,
for who knows that’s how we
may come into our own?
How receptive are we
in ending resistance,
that whence we surrender,
we’re in the here and now,
awestruck thus in wonder?

Perfectly Receptive To Otherness
I am that other guy.
You, you're my perfect lover

with identity vaporised presence
imbibing nectar osmotically.
Mode acceptant in childlike innocence,
open thus to blossoming magically.

All That Constitutes a Receptive Mind
Grey dawn was retreating from my
Front gate.
I looked upon its obvious distress;
And, slinking away as the new day
Breaks...
Its all too apparent old weariness.
What strange compunction pulls on
Us to pause
At the sudden insistence of a whim?
This, which, seemingly, without any
Cause,
Rising upwards from very deep within;
