Premium Member My Ideals are Gone

    I persevered, ‘My ideals are gone’
        Life mocked me, NO! – 
 
    ‘Ideals’ untested in reality’s crucible 
        are worthless, unusable

The darkside limerick

Deepest fears deplete the darkened mirror
The shallow artifact goads the seer
Lamps switch between worlds
Starlight crimp and burn
A hellbent crucible is near

The Voice of the Keys

This is how, in the dry lands of printed words
we stir light in a crucible of swirling doubts.
Blindly we speak for the unknowable,
our lips shut tight in a dark room,
teaching fingers how to dream.

Premium Member Doctrine Of Fire

To go through the Great Passage was Noble
to feel that Sacred Flame that was lost
by the very Scourging it took to create it, not through the Light,
but through the Dark Crucible I found Strength, But by the Light
a Doctrine Of Fire

Spring, a Crucible

Spring came like a crucible-
With a flicker, a spark, a bursting
Into color like a blossoming flame
Out of a crackle of breaking ice-
The sunlight burns through
With the brilliance of revelation
As season blazes into season,
A divine transubstantiation.

Driving the scene

Its always been the same crucible
,burn the midnight oil,
welcome to the new heap
dig the new shovel
Life in a private nunnery
waiting for euphoria
for someone to offer her a miracle
Like the calm before the storm
Shes so grateful
all awash in the World

FOUR ELEMENTS



       


     Earth to give
      form...
     Water to give
      spirit...
     Fire to give
      heat...
     air to give
      breath...
In the great crucible
of nature, only
    four essences
    to create life...
    To make
    the universe vibrate...!

Night Sky

tied against the mountain
the blue children play
the  upturned apples' cart
scent filled the air
The Wild herons flew southwards
as the crucible sun hit the apex

Crimson skies laced against
the white aconite churchyards
We left, denouncing  the first hymn
we heard
surely someone has desecrated the night sky

Premium Member Zen Mode

Reduce burden on body and mind
Breath slow lest the void be disturbed
As a crucible of God's divine energy
With pulse of love, heart has concurred

Demons sometimes do raise their heads
Wafting divine fragrance heals pain
Enigmatic life movie plays on as ordained
For our nonchalant eye, it is no strain

The Darkness At Noon

Summertime sang its chorus
Echoed through my brain
Springtime promised hope
Sending rain to clear the pain
I walked into the solstice
Prayed solace for my soul
Sacrificing my heart, your crucible
To purify the gold
I searched out the light, 
I stared into the sun
Its rays scarred my eyes
I couldn't read your runes
Loneliness consumed me 
In the darkness at noon

The Inadequate Word

Twisted in eddies through whirlpools of living
we are experimentalists with emotions of affection 
as vocabulary of language cannot denote- 
for measures in words are profoundly inadequate   
for two spirits forged in the crucible of souls
tempered in moments by breath of existence.
 For no voice had nor thoughts expressed
      what heart has heard as love’s guest.

Premium Member Fearless

 Let me take it back to the Old School where Courage was Virtue
 Heart Strong, Fearless, I'm Resolute
 Peep This
 I Got This Feelin, Like a Burnin Torch I'M LUMINOUS!
 Head High through the Crucible
 Wings Wide, The Flights Exuberant
 Light Bright
 My Hearts a Goliath,
 Soaring Up High, Golden Born like a Mastodon
 Ever Rising, Ever Glowing, Burning Bright like Saffron

Govern

Is what we
do
all there
is?
Do we 
create 
the 
universe 
in
our minds?
Are our
ways
the only
ways?
Are
the
ways of
this 
world
the only
ways of 
sentient 
existence?
Are we
the 
crucible 
for future 
Universal
governance?
If,
we
are 
in fact
the
only 
sentient 
beings 
in this
cosmos 
we then
are 
setting 
the stage
for how the
cosmos 
will
be
governed!

Humanity

We have freedom to create,
the right to participate 
and desire to aspire with our worlds dying fire.
Come close and I will share the story of love
that was held like a dove.
You may be aware, that it can lead to despair
But if you are willing to take the step into the Crucible
you may find the Humanity is shaped by our Insanity.

Siddhartha

Divinity’s candle
stays burning alive
not born or created
conceived or contrived

Its light from the center
forever shines through
the moment’s unveiling
delivering you

To places all knowing
through spaces unknown
the mix in the crucible
its myth to atone

The vision self-granted
when time is deposed
confirmed refutation
— with nothing to know

As He Died For Us

Held fast by hatred's unholy crucible,
Drawn limbs taking leave of sockets blue.
Head hanging in forsaken sadness,
Praying for those responsible.

Forgiveness granted in absence of understanding,
All past and future wrongs laid on agony's shoulders.
Torture spikes of indignity piercing bleeding hands,
Enduring that crucifixion to save all us sinners.

Thrust Home

I strive to smelt my feelings in a crucible of art,
I plunge them into tears until the hissing starts;
And after they are cooling, then I hammer them with zeal:
A rapier forged of supple, double-edged poetic steel.

I lunge it at my enemies imagined…usually,
Or raise it in salute to valiant friends, so loyally,
Or turn the weapon on myself, then finally 
To stab my pretenses, skewered with “Why me?”

Moving On

never another line beyond the standard crucible.
   
    perigan dive, falcon plain.
   
we all scatter.  

moving faster, simpler. 

 time talins sharpened flicker by..

 
look at that sensible head, such a sensible head,
 held by a thread.

  naked in the garden at the beginning. 
 
 got a get out of this skin sometime soon.

  never going to look back
  
   never that vulnerable again.

Premium Member Open Secret


it always is, a touch intimate
embraced, released, renewed
in a continuum of bliss sedate
delighting at myriad love hues

hollowed out form, magnetised
crucible of bubbling joy spacial
slow divine tease within realised
being to become a living miracle 

truth known, through inner sight
to which, each alone is witness
electrifying form day and night
melding presence with oneness

Premium Member The Crucible Of Life

I'm wistful and sad,
you're not here,
yet you're everywhere. 

Your pillow refuses to comfort me,
I punch it and yell up at you,
"Why did you leave?"

Away, I must get away from here,
I don't want to see,
all these memories.

The moon's in the sky,
strong winds are behind me,
a star shines brightly.

When morning comes,
I'll have coffee and toast,
then hold your poor pillow really close.

Assimilations Abstract Theory

Wakeful dispensations....

Traveling down reproaches weaving road at the speed of mono sound!?

Disintegrations decay within the rearview mirrors fiery blow-by-blows

Smoke and debris transformations strewn about whirlwind trails of sins

Destructive tales to form this phenomenon through, vestibules cryptic....  

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

....Crucible amid, assimilations abstract theory?!
