Peace
A fool looks for a war, a soldier tries to find some kind of peace
                   A war makes some rich, but real losers in the end
         War is a time of discontentment, peace will always sleep in a soldier's tent...

Daffodils
Here we stand brothers in arms
Green uniforms one and all
See us guarding nature’s charms
Our yellow plumes stand tall
Begone o’ winter’s discontentment
Begone o’ lonely cloud
For frosty Jack there’s no lament
We daffodils stand proud...

Righteously Reminded
Discontentment and resentment isn't instant faithfullfillment being impatient is contagious outlandish and outragious by being bias to the basics while relying on relations which unties communication creating carnal devastation destroying the creators great creation unless we as one nation under God finally awaken....

Open thy eyes
Do not hide from
the worldly beauty
that surrounds thee

Open thy heart
Do not keep it apart
From thy earthly body
that engulfs thee

Open thy mind
And you will find
Peace and contentment
Not disillusion and discontentment

Open thy soul
So you will know
the unlimited flow
From deep within...

Drowning in the knowledge That change is inevitable Afraid that your decision might backfire What can be more spine-chilling? Is the fact That not making the change will Lead you to a point of frustration Discontentment In the end to stagnate is also a choice It also has a consequence

Seeking enhancement 
We pause
The cause
Of ego discontentment 

Pulsating in exhilaration 
Blissful but yet
Lest we forget
We are bound in limitation 

To rhythm divine we sway
Continuously
But unsteadily
Sometimes ego has its way

Viewing attention oscillation 
In innocence 
Nonchalance 
Throb of bliss our orientation

Ghost of Garland
Ghost of Garland

Merrick Garland's ghost;
Would have been a perfect host;
Have loved him the most.

Jim Horn

Some are saying that Garland's ghost 
still remains and will be in Congress 
building and often there does linger 
while Democrats want to give Trump
the finger. Sure does sound like some 
signs of discontentment to me I know
everyone won't want to see.....

Hunger
We hunger for wonder
When appease is the disease. 
Fill to the gill with swill and still 
miss the bliss. 
Settle for what’s peddled
Yet crave beyond the grave. 
Beware of despair
And reverse the curse. 
Hold out for the knock out. 
Don’t compromise for the downsize. 
And look crosswise when you surmise your demise. 
The miracle is in the spiritual. 
Not the estate we await....

Premium Member Who Is the Affirmer Affirming
Affirmations seem popular
attempting to manifest reality
peril being of ego seeking
boon as bane causing fatality

Unless with the conscience 
we be in tranquil alignment 
ego borne cravings & urgings
bring suffering & discontentment 

Such is the divine paradox
that whilst we may co-create
we must do so in loving surrender
detached and in stillness sedate

Satiate
It's a bottomless hollow.
No ending.
It is free falling.
A gravity in sorrow.

Ambrosia can't satisfy
the tyrant’s hunger
of expanding its lair;
Laws, his greatest adversary.

A man on the pedestal.
Alone but he has the world.
The emptiness there is; so is cold.
Discontentment is an autumnal petal.

Satiate, people pray!
Bless thy gifts,
Uttered by Judas's lips.
Like his kiss, a dirt; a clay....

Premium Member Circle of Life
The journey thus far, full of excitement!
Life gone by, we have come a full circle,
soon after birth, caught in discontentment:
born pure until thoughts began to spiral,
entrapping us in vibrations feral.
To go to the right, pendulum swings left.
Over time, resting ego urges deft,
we abide once again in calm tranquil,
nestled in bliss throes at a higher crest;
jigsaw seeming complex, now looks simple.

Premium Member Flickering Flame
Flickering flame A discordant note of egos that bloat, so discerned by mind, holds on us no bind. Heart’s slight resentment is discontentment, noticed as a slip, as we nearly trip. This flicker in space is our soul’s disgrace, which though now restored, at that moment gored. If what is just is, then bubbling bliss fizz should be all we feel, in it’s full appeal. 13-September-2022

Discontentment
0 As I open my eyes to a new day,
 10 I see what could be,
    20 I see what should be,
      30 And I see what will be,
        40 And all the wile believing I have control,
          50 How foolish have I been,
            60 How stupid could I be,
              70 As I close my eyes to end the day,
                80 I see that this will not happen tomorrow,
                  90 I see I have learned, 
0 As I open my eyes to a new day....

Angels Beneath Me
And everything blurs to me till i see the forest of your discontentment,
  I hold you close raising up the dark leaves that bind you and burn them into white 
ashes as we change.

 Just listen you'll hear me in the breeeze, 
You know who it is.

for i know,
Everytime.

I lose myself in you,
I like feeling you holding my hand.

Take me into the arms that i feel so warm and safe in and never let me fall, 
But burn and i see that not everyone is smiling....

Soul of An Eagle Life of a Penguin
Soaring in my mind above the blue skies.
Warmth penetrating across my brow.
Diving to feel a cool breeze and soaring again
On strong wings. Time is no importance while on top today.

I look across the vast sea and know I can swim fast and free.
I float, dart and flipper my way to this destination. 
Mostly content though when I gaze upward...
Fleeting thoughts of discontentment come as flashes of light.
My dream...to soar as an eagle, majestic, across the sky....
