Zen mode

buildup of tension illusionary 
is but a wave in the ocean
surfing the bardo we see
there’s nothing to be done
save embracing and releasing 
each impulse play of life so offer

Frog In Her Cup

Frog In Her Cup

there once a frog that jumped into her cup
he filled her rim so fast he got the hiccups 
was all he could wrestle
as he swam her vessel`
croaks waned once a release of his buildup

Got Heartburn { Cinquain}

Heartburn
                                                      Gastric acid
                                            Bad burning sensation
                                         Caused by a regurgitation
                                                         Buildup

Zen mode

sensing strange stirrings of angst buildup
casting an ominous shadow of gloom
we pause the cause of contraction 
that rapture within may zoom

awareness thus self-aware
resolves conflicts in the heart
the core of our being always free
causes bliss ignition within to start

Meltdown, Buildup

do you want some fun 
in a parked out car
or a video chat one on one

maybe a song
maybe several
maybe a kiss
life should be gentle

but its often not
it often gets hot
and your shoes start to melt
into the tarmac 

when that happens
don't tread on your tippy-toes
just call my number
and ill carry you home

Dreams Made of This

In love
with the idea
of being in love
of being
Cinderella 
for a day
the buildup
the dream
the dress
the bouquet
the attention
the epitome of
perfection in
the detail
the fantasy
the illusion
the delusion
the day after

Nocturnal Roses

Daybreak ends all the midnight illusions,
things that were masked by the stars lit up;
I have reached one too many conclusions;
All of the banter painted with makeup 
well dressed cosmic celestial visions;
Constant flicker and a constant buildup;
Nocturnal roses close with the sunrise
erasing the scent of Sap’s paradise.

Scotch Off Guard

empty stomach
eyes bagged from lunch
lingering taste 
of the hangover hunch
cotton chew 
of minced inner cheek
dead cigarette cloak
stains of the meek

dreams of a bedside fountain
flow through
the dry mouth dream
hopes for buildup to swallow
to flush the liquid unclean

ache of head
drool glued to the bed
a familiar vortex
spins out of control
sudden slip
of equilibrium
force dishonest tears to roll
Categories: buildup, depression

Buildup

My hazel eyes, through glasses stare
My dimpled smile then broadens wide
Alive, I feel when you are there
As reactions, then, just cannot hide
The scent of perfume fills my head
That gentle scent that sparks my fire
The way you wear the clothes you wear
It does so much to build desire 
So passionately you whisper words
That through my ears, they resonate
To the depths of want, where fires burn
To surging passion that cannot wait

My Heart Jumped

How do I know you? I can't remember to tell,
When I looked into your eyes, the soul that I felt,
The zipline of chills that ran through my spine,
I couldn't explain it, it scared me inside,
A love screaming for help, locked away, 
The buildup of words your heart needed to say,
I never felt such anguish and love at the same time,
I felt so much it brought tears to my eyes,
A heaviness so unbearable, my heart jumped from my chest,
I could not understand, the pressure was intense,

Eureka Moment

It happened in just a blink,
giving me no time to think;
identity fell away ~
I saw the truth clear as day.

There was a buildup of course,
led by choice not to use force, 
with love in resonation, 
always in meditation.

What we are is living light,
self-existent shining bright,
renewing the pulse of bliss,
becoming the all-that-is.

The truth is, nothing was gained,
except that now soul's unchained
and we are here now awake,
tranquil like a placid lake.
