Renunciation Poems - Poems about Renunciation

Renunciation

Look at body-mind as a car we drive,
from which upon death we will disembark,
so we renounce goals for which we did strive,
sailing in the void on an upward arc.

This world is a dream, so it’s unreal,
therefore to which object should we then cling?
Shifting to the heart, we being to feel,
throb of bliss magnetism that makes

Renunciation

Looking deeper than mind and senses five,
instruments provided for earth life use,
in stillness, eye of the soul let’s revive,
since ego cravings lead to self-abuse.
Following scent of love, bliss beat’s our muse,
we get to a knowing no one can teach,
as illusion of space-time we so breach.

Discarding every conditioned belief,
jettisoning fear, renouncing desire,
we so give our soul

Renunciation

The screen of awareness upon which life plays,
learns by touch whilst yet free from both joy and pain,
because it is not soul but ego that sways,
imprisoning consciousness in a thought chain,
wherein we trauma bond until end of days,
unless by force of will, dark desires are slain.
This practice requiring renunciation,
chooses cessation to raise soul’s vibration.

Abdication

I will doff my ermine gown
and take off my kingly crown.
The day declines, the course is run,
on  fleece of gold reclines the sun.

I'll not  retouche the Mona Lisa
or straighten up the Tower of Pisa.
Further work in that connection
I leave to those who seek perfection.

bold bright butterfly
flies far from fragrant flowers
rests on dried cacti

Her Renunciation

She walks barefooted in spiny shore
as dusk descends to snatch her heart;
Bloody feet turn curling foams
into hot crimson red~
melting her footprints
and her wild dreams
into smoke
that kills
her.
She
dances
with the moon
as the tide dries;
Her dolesome heart hails
on nocturnal murmurs
echoing from northern lights
as seabirds return to their nests;
She jumps in and succumbs to the sea.

Eulogy - I Ate My Mother

chewing 
misery
a dagger 
in the morsel
jabbed 
slash on the heart
an evil thrall
enslaved 
my conscience
my mother the morsel
she rebirthed 
as the chicken
i just ate

The Power of Renunciation

a strange like feeling
unknown so far,
pierced through me,
with hollowness
of the years, in true.

yet, the life as such,
in a jiffy, gone and flew
that I lived alone
as one in the crew.

its flavour tastier
and rhythm smoother,
when a new shoot
of renunciation grew.

the real happiness,
as I felt, in the detachment 
and the stark joy in the fullest,
that was only for

Apprehension Or Renunciation

For I grew weary of my life I went as drifting water,
and flowed only to the lower land to see the world open to the main, however, since drifting water is no one but my own, the world within me is troublesome as before.

For I just cannot stand there and watch the heap of obscenities
