a thinking impediment
some speech sediment...

single samara
swiveling down creates a
great impediment
for minute passing life and
a dam for trickling water....

His parents had a cow when he was born
a speech impediment made them forlorn
instead of a moo
he'd let out a boo
scaring the herd all night and morn.

Alas,

the greatest impediment 

on one's way towards achieving harmony with

the cosmos, is 

oneself!

Space and time encase
Manifestation
Both seen and unseen
The void potential
Spanda kinetic

All that that blocks
Energy flow
Impediment 
To our ascent 

Sticky thought
Attachments
We forgo

The way
Simple

Still

‘ Intelligence-Impediment ’

There Was A-Lisping Professor, Named Panamo’
Who gave his Students, an Assignment on Plato’
… But he was quite perplexed in Mind
… When They, came with clay-figures of some Kind
Not Realizing, They All Thought, He’d Said, ‘Play Doh’ ......

Are you a mith or mithith
Thith ith hard to thay
S words get in the way of speaking clearly
That otherth uthe with eathe
Thome people make fun of me
Laugh at me and teathe 
I do not apprethiate thith
Not one little bit
I know thith ith rude
It makth me want to thpit...

slow slime
nothing like before

Unto you un-glue
this ugly face. 

While I wait 
for resurrection
I may even 
pierce my own hands

Churches wither
and I make pavement

Void of answers
is my speech impediment.

There once was a lap dog named Chloe,
Well-groomed and adorned to be showy;
She pranced in the ring,
Applause she did bring,
With her tail and her ears long and flowy.

There once was a schnauzer named Pete,
Bearded and eye-browed so neat;
He wanted to win,
But failed to begin,
For Chloe had gone into heat....

Wages
of alienation
were increasing.
We were afraid
of reflections.

Shifting
of landscapes
will hurt the river.
I was blinded
by blues.

Relationship
becomes a speech
impediment,
bonds start
breaking.

I wanted
to call your name –
in solitude.
The echo
reaches the whole sky.

He steals across the courtyard,
an ardent lover anxious to surprise,
edging ever forward, 
with fiery consummation as his prize.

His blushes blossom bright and hot,
as he lays forth his course and his intent,  
ever nearer to the trellises,
the shadows shrink, now no impediment. 

At his zenith he is seen by all,
the blessed sphere on full display,
inviting those who stand in awe
to pray, and then be on their way....

SPEECH      IMPEDIMENT     JOB-SEEKER


An  aged  respondent  called  Smith
Answered the  newspaper  job-list  herewith
“Man wanted as geologist 
Great  skill at digging out schist
And  now and again a  large  batholith.”


But this geologic skill was  a myth.
Because  like  rock-hound  kin and  kith
They  just  wanted a man,    
Not  the   lisping  old  gran 
That   they  thaw  when she gave them  a kith....

....passing perpendicular
enable this feeble brain to
regain momentum
in its frenetic
pursuit of something
hugely prophetic to
enlighten you readers with a 
rhythmic
avalanche of profound
Love.

Then again, thoughts that are
hovering can in fact be an
outright impediment
unintentionally causing a stammer,
guffaw, or some other sophistic
hilarity to erupt
taking all seriously serious
spirituality off into the mundane....

Sat Chit Ananda being the limit of expressing the inexpressible absolute reality whilst  resident within boundaries of space-time, we fail to comprehend this symbolised understanding in the clear light of unwavering awareness without assimilating the experience. The letting go of to get to remains the impediment. The map is not the terrain.

Veil lifts, clear light dawns
Mind body vaporises
We be to become

I raised my foot to climb the stairs
only to find an old age impediment there.

Down I went face first upon the stair
now realizing that I must first think before going there.

Raise that leg high resounds in the mind
something I didn't have to do once upon a time.

A thought that now stays ever constant in my mind
each time I approach something I have to climb.

What was once done with thoughtless effort
is now done in thoughtful measure....

WORD FOR TODAY: DEVELOPMENT

Ignorance and complacency must never remain Africa’s IMPEDIMENT
The world has moved up a notch; massive growth with DEVELOPMENT
While the Western nations covet innovations, we want EMPOWERMENT
While transparency reigns yonder; Africa is battling EMBEZZLEMENT
We still deceive ourselves that in strength; we remain the EMBODIMENT
My fear is that other nations will advance and make us an EXPERIMENT

No, I don’t wave a wand,
but it opens silently
ahead of me.
No push, 
no pull,
no “open sesame”,
no tiny whoosh
as the door swings wide.
With arms full,
I can carry in packages,
no struggle, 
no dropping the eggs.

I can push in
a stroller
or wheelchair
or walker
I can use a cane,
no hands required.
No magic,
just an automatic door –
no impediment
to my passage.
I am welcomed
inside with
open arms.
I don’t have
to do a thing....
