Estranged

as long as there be separation 
how then can we ever feel complete 
if God and soul tango dance not as one 
distanced from His heart our joy will deplete

Corrupt

Number 10

CORRUPT



Laws and yet more laws show
Show corruption at the door
When less is more sense flow
Deplete with ooze that pours

Sound of Knops

In a game of matching mates
Humble life decorate lonely tree
Wheel reach  deep  dark hole

Flurry of bliss  crisped  leaves
Orchids deplete its tears 
Fallen cloud  stood  frozen
Till sound of  opening knops

Cannot Beat the Beat

Cannot Beat the Beat

Can never be able to beat, "The Beat;"
To ever disavow, deplete or do delete;
Truth will tell,
That is swell,
What I say was always done discrete.

Illegal Migrants

Illegal Migrants Miracle Man 4/19/2024 Their sleeping bags and tents line each street, making an eyesore of what once was neat. The thing most unfunny, we’re giving them money, while our healthcare resources they deplete.

Art of Giving

Giving alms while looking at the recipient’s feet Was asked why his self esteem did deplete To which he said ‘I seem to be the giver Yet God alone is the divine lover So I look down ashamed Lest heart be stained’ 07-October-2021

Heat Waves

Heat waves burn the Summer air 
deceit makes it difficult to breathe; 
Deplete my lungs of oxygen 
beat like dog days lies beneath; 

Rush of sultriness over and over 
paintbrush colors a soft breeze; 
Gush of flames constricting 
hush now your pain can ease.

Bliss

bliss is the subtlest of the five sheaths donned
a steady hum of divine magnetism
fixating focus, taking us beyond
symbols, forms and labels of every ism
igniting here now our mind-body prism
simply stated bliss mirrors God’s heartbeat
rapture unbound that never does deplete

A Reminder

Wait on and see if rich you be,
Consolation you've received;
Or if you're full and complete,
hunger may soon deplete;
Now may your laughter,keep
As you later mourn and weep;
Will the world speak well of you,
And applaud you to the grave;
Even though t'was ever thus'
Only He can save.

Open Secret

Open secret, bliss throbs within Benign magnetic heat Tranquil stillness, free from thought din Joy that does not deplete Rapture grows to peaked height Cascading day and night To blissful heart’s delight None can ferret Open secret 14-March-2022 Quietus

Zen mode

hallowed hollow of our glistening palms
heals our fellow souls on the astral plane
emitting loving radiance that calms
borrowing lustre from our central vein
transmits God’s blessings falling like light rain
likewise soles of our feet mirror cool heat 
signalling flow of grace does not deplete

Calibrating desires

Lower desires orbiting body-mind,
leaves heart incomplete, staring at defeat,
signalling cravings should be left behind,
that going in we may feel God’s heartbeat,
imbibing bliss mists which do not deplete.
With bliss attained and heaven in our sight,
we drop this realm too, to transform as light.

Fragment

A month ago life was complete

Now it's torn in two

New hours at work short change life and deplete

The minutes to spend with family are few

My husband growls and moans

In disgust I cry myself to sleep

Money is tight to pay our loans 

And I find myself alone to weep

Joy

Sipping doesn't deplete the optimist's natural well of joy.

To Not Know Love

The forsaken heart
Is one that cries in pain
And alone
Even in the light
As it is among others.
It is dry
Without the flowing blood
Of another
Beating side by side
To repeat the 
Sounding drumbeat.
It is devoid of life
When deplete of love
As that remains
The main ingredient
For a strong
Eternal life.

A Bluish Shine

Waterfall gushing
on moss-covered rocks, breaking
up a bluish shine;
tree dangling from wet boulder
crushes the ginger,
to deplete it of its light...
Waterfall playing
a scherzo, ever grant me
this sweet symphony...

Happy Sounds

Remnants of laughter carry on the breeze
The sounds of the many children I hear
Sounds that inspire and so often please
The sounds that I’ll always hold dear
Sounds of today, that push me to tomorrow
They are sounds of the good in the world
As well, sounds of innocents, deplete of sorrow
The dream lives of all boys and girls

Watch Her Break

Scrambled legs
Tingling fingers
Grayscale of concrete.
Shimmering metal
Dancing air
No energy to deplete.
Rasping breaths
Stomach twisted
Into a crumpled bow.
Quietly shrinking
Girl in a dryer
Shriveled lips of snow.
Lurching throat
Dried up tongue
But nothing will come up,
Scarecrow arms
And glass-shard legs
Are never thin enough.

It's a Sham

Oh, what a Sham, a fragile charade..
A hollow masquerade we choose to parade.
Truth submerged in the depths of deceit..
Masks of deception, veiling hearts deplete.

In the shadows we dance, oblivious to the game..
But within the Sham, souls suffer in shame.
Dare we unmask, reveal our truest self?
Or forever be lost... beyond reach... beyond help?

Things Have Been Incomplete

Life is with halves replete,
No one real thing complete,
As things gladly deplete
And these sadly repeat:
Someone could include heat 
And a drunk wet soil peat 
I : a rock-n-roll beat
And clothes sewn from long sheet,
Because they at last shrink
And go ahead to stink;
My prestige starts to sink…

Things have been incomplete
And often this we meet.
