Drink To Me

‘My Wife drank from this cup’, said I one morning, as I woke to start my mourning.

The cup was half full - of tea - and hitherto lost memories.
Form: Couplet


Metamorphosis

I love rain
Birds fly to their nests...
That boy hitherto in sleep...
And the mid-day sun...
Sound sleeps again
...

Rains are now tears
What???!!!
How the hell...
So true, so true, so true

Premium Member Immortelle Structured Prose

Hitherto unseen chance arrangements
a pictorial fiction, representation immortelle
Banal,but witty yet disconcerting in its
fortuitous resemblance to veracity
A novel way of seeing ,to the jaded eye.
Form: Verse

Foxes Fumbling Forward

Flummoxed foxes fleeing, fumbling forward from furious
Hurried heaving hounds howling hourly hitherto

Stop

Withered weathered wild woods would weep when
Man made memories murdering many mammals 

Stop

Tune of Love

He is in air wide
In tune with Whirling Dervish
Enjoying the love.

Better ones gaze at
What eyes fail to see hitherto
The best ones up there.

Resonance all over
Deep into Dervish's heart cozy
Love lives there only.
Form: Haiku


Premium Member Zen mode

a gentle magnetic breeze suffuses form
rising from a centreless fulcrum within
hitherto dormant nodes within come alive
celebrating the sublime caress of love divine
cajoling soma nectar to drip from the bliss hive

Vain Wait

VAIN WAIT

I look not for a life
I have got one
I look not for death
I only live once

Your search is rash
Your find is hash
Your days are haze
Your mind in daze

Come hither yonder
Some will filter sooner
Tom’s peep hitherto asunder
One is I nearing tether


THE INVINCIBLE PEN

Premium Member inner cleansing

chakras hitherto ignored now pulsate
all polarised nodes wish to merge with source 
manner of change varies as does blink rate
all accomplished without the use of force 
kundalini being our sole resource
that as subject and object become one
all we are aware of is bliss beat’s hum

Warm Fuzzies At Dawn

walk to fame
singing my notes
as a virtuosic
applauded habitually

pitching new octaves
alto and tenor
our dulcet tunes
loudly echo

of seamless hearts
tickled to laughter
our guileless smile
wakes bliss

our empyrean dreams
hitherto slumbering still
to stay living
gains life

Premium Member Divine Mother

Divine Mother moves across patterned grooves, vivifying form by magnetism warm. Hitherto inert nodes begin to spurt, dancing in rhythm, within body prism. Becoming twice born, soul presence looks on, as heightens delight in this wingless flight. 06-April-2022

Anorexic & Obese

Grass Calls for
 More and more
And I water and water.
The Obese: Expires

Hitherto, that grass
Spikingly Winds up by the"Plop, Plop"
Snubbing over the drops.
And Passes.

The Olive Grass
Gawking incessantly out at the flecked Rays
I witness them dance
They post me the murmuring messages

Of the Wind.

Wounds of heart then heal well

To soul’s discourse when we deal well,
Wounds of heart hitherto heal well.
Let whole world see no good in you,
Clouds once clear, sun-moon reveal well.

Gather Laughter

Willows wink cautiously, stream downtrodden steep cavern

fixed twelve ancient existence, dim lit dreamscape.

Draw scribble hitherto fortune gold melt, cent tenth.

Alas awake if could name such, surround rusts faded silence.

Quit sorrow dilemma yanked empire squander

tear victim of gravity’s twisted humor,

gather laughter…

Writing

Put pen to paper and
as the ink flows
so too your strength grows.
The power of the pen
to heal and reveal
innermost thoughts
amazes.
Words within
hitherto unrecognized
take form.
As you scribe unconsciously
the introduction to self
sparks a new friendship
of intimacy.
Put pen to paper
for the combining of the two
creates a powerful force.

Premium Member Wake Up Oh Pilgrim

Stupor pays a heavy cost,
for with soul awareness lost,
ignorance results in grief,
until we turn a new leaf.

Trapped outside but free within,
silence the way to begin,
whereupon ego recedes;
we follow, pulse of love leads.

Soul’s light, hitherto concealed,
is in timeless time revealed,
within our heart, where God dwells.
Hark ye not yet, bliss beat bells?
Form: Jueju

Rest the Brain

Pondering over this and that,
Mind simply did not work,
Everything fell quite flat,
It had been worked too much,
I do agree to full,
But it also could not remain such,
I could feel the heated pate,
As I pulled in a deep breath,
which was hitherto in a bate,
a exhaustive exhale out,
I felt it had calmed and cooled a bit,
A second later it was full of thoughts on full sprout.

Premium Member Sensations of Vibrations

When subject and objects merge, what remains,
save breathing pulsation of unity,
as all-ness in separateness ingrains
wholeness of creation in certainty,
throbbing within in continuity?
Essence of presence, in continuance,
feels each nuance through inner sentience,
radiant in the vibrant bliss current,
in playful, joyous dance of innocence,
manifesting the hitherto latent.

Sticking To Identity

That which does me distinguish 
I cannot just relinquish
Before Cameras “Slender”
Why would I change My Gender?
All along An Insider,
My name Wilder, not Spider …

Does one seek identity
Making one Non-Entity;
Face to face with things The Right
And still opting for The Tight:
Hitherto not a Villain
Why now to it a steely chain?

The wind does not skirt billow
With Girl’s head on a pillow.

Before the Storm

Poet: Ken Jordan
Poem: Before The Storm
Edited by: Sparkle Jordan
written: January/1987


Ocean wind,
      wilt thou bluster
thou fierce winds
       thenceforth
the storm -

        She's gone
hitherto places
         thou trust not 
known -

Will she come back
         ahead of the storm,
in love still
         embraced in thou
arms -

         Or, will the rain
continue to fall -

Counting Sheep

We persist in running again.
Eyes widened by experience, open like wounds.
Heavy jaws of ruminated
Portions.
Hallucinations of wolves and foxes and mean people,
Ripped members and massacres could
Always and never happen. Our lives
Mean nothing while living in
Tastebuds of animals and those who profit
From our meat and coarse hair.
They fade in our mind, hitherto
We persist in running,
To fleetingly feel alive.

Premium Member I have been sent '

I am here..To rip up any carefully concocted notions.' To stamp on obcenitys' and dis-abuse all and 
Sundry of sepia toned views, of 
Disgusting historical humans who
Have been hitherto venerated as
Almost God.? If not as replacements'
Indeed I will rip the rose tinted glasses
From your very noses ' And trample on
Your toes'es.' In order to wake you up.'
As indeed all heaven knows'es.)
And thats just for starters'
So help me God.!

Regrets and Secrets Fret

Lies told from a broad, bold base
Strain and constrain relationships
Painting impressions that cannot embrace
Confidence in frayed friendships

Lies can’t leapfrog
Despite webs of subterfuge
Digital or analog
Concocted in a deluge

Flooding platforms
Hitherto serene
Grown stale when sullied storms
Gather momentum to clean

Fragments of laments
Swimming in rivers of regrets
Sealed in hearts and garments
That break free of sleazy secrets.

Premium Member Aspect Allowing

That that was hitherto hidden from us, in time is revealed. The ego impatient, as a doer, interferes, impeding flow of the current, thereby delaying our soul progress. The path clear: we must vaporise ego! Unable to use mind to transcend mind. we melt into the void of stillness, going within in quietude; in tranquil joy solitude. No one here resident, save child innocent, unresistant, allowing bliss to flow. 06-November-2020
