Short Absorption Poems

rain and snow collect 
grounds hard no absorption yet 
water stands stagnant...

Absorption and Abortion

Sin a distortion;
Absorption and abortion;
Not do it again.

In contemplation
one soothes one's soul, mentally
Yoga's mechanics
also allows absorption
spiritual disciplines...

I have learned less
by imitation
and more by absorption
simply letting the sun speak to me
of light and dark mysteries...

filthy goats grabbing
they know just how
to work a room

complete in their absorption
hungry symbols
enslaved but not ashamed...

Absorption



We learn to receive,
	Accepting the process.
Exercising the courage to wait,
	 We let time pass through it.
And suddenly,
	Our knowing is clear…...

Our ripe minds protrude
Waiting to be ripped-
A signal to leave behind
The excess of all other moments

We allow our fallen tails
Re absorption through the ground
Back into the neverending fervor...

black
my soul
when we met
my thirst for you
dark and rapacious
with endless  jealousy
my addiction teasing me
engulfing me in emptiness
my need drawing me ever closer
into your obsessive self absorption

Today the wind blows,
Causing the trees to sway,
And their intoxication possessed my vision.

Tomorrow the wind will blow,
Causing the trees to sway,
Their absorption is now spoiled to the eye,
But they will continue to sway,
For my attention is expendable....

Lost Horizon

I streaked right by the sunset, never noticed
the tangerine sphere in the sky,
the orange ball of which poets speak.

Into the darkness I stumbled. 
What happened?
Self-absorption obscured the sign of the sun.

See no truth,
Hear no truth,
Speak no truth.
Follow the leader.
Don’t look to either side
Or you might see
In the mirror
Of your own making
Your cowardice,
distortions, self-absorption,
lies, and poor judgment.
Keep the blinders on.
Follow the leader
over the cliff....

"Self absorption:
fickle, spiny sponge.
Crevices of fingerprints
stinging on the tongue...
Rapt attention 
fixed upon the
reproducing cell-
Fickle self absorption
I know you very well."

He walks into the bar 
Like a movie star

With swagger 
Out pouring the lager

Topped by a mop 
Of such mythical proportion

It hushes the crowd 
With its absorption

More adorn
Than a unicorn

Waving a pompadour 
As big as a brontosaur

violins explain my life in verse my heart
understands-/ melancholy moods, the softest 
touch-/ visiting moments from my past with
soft caress-/ penetrating me, like blood
coursing through my body-/ freely giving to
every healing vibrato the violin and musician
grant me this evening....

Women are most definitely
the more superior gender of my human specie,
at least in the area of a more higher level of spirituality.
Men on the other hand are the more superior gender of my specie
in the areas of self absorption, hate and greed.
That in no way means that women are weaker to men in any degree.
Positive will always be stronger than Negative eternally....

If you don’t like the view
Change your perspective
Pretend that each moment is not electric
And that rejection is better than nothing
We wind our way through shock
And static
Tunnels and windy torrents
Surfacing only for breath
Measured in seconds 
To years
Life is transported through cascading tears
Each drop choosing to either evaporate
Or plunge to absorption...

Living in the moment
Intertwined with caution
Fondling with death
Endless absent-minded absorption

Innocent and naïve
Silent but deadly

Arrogant misconception

Phenomenal credibility
Reality sets harsh
Immediate results
Various humans scrambling
Incompetent lives ran up
Leeching to get upstairs
Entitled to nothing worthwhile
God hawks their sorrow
Eventually guiding them back down...

Now audible, the ticking to that;
Infinite and complete 'Complete absorption'
-Unwillingness to concede overtakes.

What I have known all my life;
The only true denouement of all
stories,The only true destination of all
journeys - Yet I deny

The mind is smart enough to realize,But
the heart provides solace to that,
startled mind; And convinces it of it's
inability to know
the time...

sink
lower, drowned
submerging, burying, plummeting
absorption, slump, backstroke, fishes
snorkeling, diving, spearfishing
floaty, enjoyable
swim

Belligerent and irritated by almost any little thing
Insaneness all around me; craziness is what I bring
Psychosis is not the problem; the problem lies within
Overzealous personality; much absorption sinking in 
Liar, cheat and manipulator; trust you should not give
Ambition at its lowest; no longer wanting to live
Racing thoughts; trying to unwind an ultimate goal for an unstable mind

Are we gods and ancestors? 
Are we giants and heroes
With heart made of stone 
Oh life, tell us

Are we the products of self absorption?
From the reactants of hatred and greed 
In the presence catalyst of ignorance
Oh life, define us

Are we inhuman with our shameful eyes?
That seeks darkness
And chase smoke
Oh life, forgive us

Are we pain to the world?
With our faded life
Forged identities
Oh life, fill us...

Stripping off
laying waste
there is a distinct sound of slither from the bushes

transformation
oddly enough
being born in the year of the snake
is fitting
as I shed
my cocoon of self absorption

my eyes are open
seeing as if the first time seeing
shadows are now light
and light is now brilliance
as it bounces across the waters of my soul...

there is no suspect
there is only one
that which is alone
that which is me....

Poetry is whatever is in your heart and mind at the 
time the writing tool of emotion scrolls the paper.
   Creating imprints of permanence that maybe perused 
visually, or by perception of auditory.
   Allowing for the absorption of another's very being.
Conjoining mental galaxies, surfing the milky way of
creativity.
   To the shores of the author's imagination.
Sharing the same thoughts and interpretations, if only
for a moment....

Sacrifice

Sacrificial solitudes traumatically trapped thru out time
Sabotaged souls subservient to the Necronomicon night
A selfless surrender sanctioned with a calamitous climb
Penal punitive pondering of the marauding mind's abyss
A slave seducing deviation from the mantra morals amiss
For infinities infraction the absorption of a stigmatic smite.

WISE suggests the best utilization and application of knowledge.

INHERENT in every act of true wisdom is the presence of God.

SOLOMON is believed to be the wisest king that has ever lived.

EDUCATION is not simply the absorption of man-based knowledge.

MANKIND  wanders in the wilderness if there is no wisdom.

EVOLUTION that leaves God out of the equation lacks wisdom.

NEW Ideas having little to no appreciation for history are suspect.
