Diet Setbacks

Self-discipline whines
discounting hefty losses...
Demanding dessert

snippy snotty persnickety uptight and mean

my co-workers were snippy, snotty, persnickety, uptight and mean.
I had been discounting this for some time, but could not ignore any longer.
quitting my job was the right thing for me; I did not belong with mean girls.

Discounting the Cooked Clerk

Discounting the Cooked Clerk Bah humbug humidity. Cratchit’s counting on hot reality with an unquenchable boss. Air conditioner’s broke, but not. Think Winter’s better? it ain’t. Scrooged in Summer taint. 9/13/2021

The Bark of the Birch

The bark of the birch - it’s curled for peeling
as the whippoorwill commands the block.
I fill my lungs with the pine-riddled air,
discounting the call of the clock.
A trickle of water escapes the hose,
a new pepper has sprouted - no, a pair!
Pleased with the snips of roses I chose,
apart from a vase, I haven’t a care.

Structured Construction

It’s about to explode, ready set..
there’s such stability in chaos;
So wild the part of you that’s free;

Atomic part of you blown free  
takes root and slowly starts to set;
Careful the construction of chaos;

Discounting the structure in chaos,
naive to that serving core of ‘Free’;
Supernovas have an unstable set;

Just let go and set the chaos free.

Do-Over

Day's end ~ fiasco, near constant assail. Discounting what's here, I crave what I lack. In my own strength, I am set up to fail. Regret for those words too late to take back... Forgetting purpose, I thrash and I flail; with each step taken, I'm further off track. Thankfully, grateful I can again say, So tender His mercies, new every day.

The Blues

Sitting here alone again:
watching Mash!!
I know, but what the heck.
It’s still a smash, 
just as it was then.
The highlight of my day;
discounting watching
the cats at play.
So free–
they seem to be.
But then, who am I to say?
My big concern
sadly to learn
in my present state of demise.
Is how to crease 
this solo piece
and have some left 
to wipe my eyes.

Gratitude

Gratitude Written: by Miracle man November 23, 2020 “Attitude of gratitude” is more than an impression, Gratitude erodes rough spots that trigger aggression I praise God’s name when HE aligns my attitude and view my glass half full due to my gratitude Things are seldom as bad as they might first appear Gratitude counts blessings while discounting fear

Existentialism

By day,
By night,
We fight,
Summoning all of our might.
They try to douse our flame, but it's still burning bright.

Our crime,
in time
You’ll find,
Is popular for a certain kind of mind.

Goodbye hate,
Goodbye sorrow,
Wonder who life will take tomorrow.

A product of our wills,
Crossing the hills
cranked out by the mills
of those who are ruled by this system still,
who believe life is already filled, and distilled,
discounting freewill.

Non-Duality--Peace and Freedom

These poems are all about Non-duality, or Non-separation.  If you are stimulated, you might search the internet (particularly YouTube) for speakers on this subject. Many find much freedom and peace in an appreciation of Non-duality.  It is easily dismissed because of its simplicity, which seems to discount spiritual and religious practices. But this discounting is eventually seen as a lack of appreciation for the message.  Poems are all brief.  Please enjoy, or skip by them!  Thanks, Charles
