Are the limits you place on yourself.

Standing in the realm of your immortal soul…
Holding to beliefs from forgotten memories…
Living in a room with limiting walls…
Becomes what is you…...

Listening to nature
Laughing when feeling joy
Learning a life lesson
Lifting up the weary
Limiting our mistakes
Loving our Creator

I
Human perception is self-limiting - like radars, we scan for targets - not diffuse area.

II
Gestalt psychology knows how humans focus on figures, not background canvas....

she is not usually wistful
this is one of those rare exceptions
she is allowing herself one regret
limiting herself to devoting only ten minutes
choosing to dwell on positives...

dead men walking
predicting patterns
anticipating outcomes 
self limiting possibilities
languishing in darkness
blind leading the blind
a tragedy of our times

O' God you and your word are true;
There's no limiting you;
You're not just the view;
You are more than a clue;
You're you are God ;
And you are more than you;
You are you are;

one breath length- the limiting factor

words&wordplay- essential to say

rhyme&chime- most of the time

image&inspiration- your muse will choose

visual spacing- to ease the eye

form- just a device -not the reason why...

if
I
may be
permitted,
popular acclaim
has its own peculiar demands,
limiting abundant creative exploration 
to lying within the strict boundaries satisfying the current audience's tastes.

playing for keeps,enemy of my life long entity calling me , and me calling it infamy.
 needed not to outlast the limits pushing me and me pushing it limitlessly.
 freedom hanging limiting the throat full modern day lovely calling it golden...

They spend no time at all thinking negative thoughts
Ignore the pandemic, keeping the TV news off
Choosing life over fear
Enjoying every minute
Limiting themselves not a whit.
They are the brilliant, the positive, the faithful.
Let’s all be them!...

How can I describe my love, when love isn't a strong enough word
Is it even possible to explain something that must be felt and not heard
And even though, you'll never know, I think it is preferred 
To imagine possibilities instead of limiting them to a word...

yet his gait was limiting
to the harvest of shadows around him
breathing whatever air was there
at the time
and since his writing 
caught no-one's attention
and colourful birds may have flown overhead
those television days
although perfect
were over

Harmonious happiness hangs heavily hiding
From fear freedom factories 
Emanating energy entangling
Clear conscious creating
Preventing precious purpose piety
Limiting love lighting lengthy life
Outstanding omnipotent observation opens
Kindred kings knowing kingdom…...

The quality of
The tape itself
May vary,
But the 1812 Overture
On an off-brand is better
Than ‘Mary had a little lamb’
On Maxell

The size of the rubber band
Is limiting
But six inches stretched to seven
Is wasted,
When four can be stretched to eleven
Quite well....

Poetry is not a repeating phrase
totally limiting your unlimited mind,
Soullessly following another’s rules
knowingly pushing your thoughts aside;

Celebrate what’s inside of you 
extrapolate your soul’s unique dance;
Elevate that inner rhythm 
create your own perfect cadence....

In the moment
Potent
Our doing
Being vaporising
There is a chasm
Bcoz the mechanism
Has a doer doing
Contorting & limiting

Who is he we ask
Getting to the task
Of elimination
Another ego precipitation 
A fool
In a whirlpool
The clown
Inevitably drowns

IN MY SHOES

Walking down life’s path
I don’t see you very clearly
I hear your footsteps
But I don’t feel your pain 
Or experience your joy

Through my own eyes
Perception is mine alone
And individual walk
Limiting my view
I try to put myself 
In your shoes
But the size and fit
Just isn’t the same

imprisoned mind
the unbroken chains
is free will guiding you

as self constructed
barriers surrounds 
are thoughts limiting you

some day you take
the choice of flow free
what are you waiting for
