Short Obstructions Poems

some abstract men
that rule this smart world
with dire obstructions
and extractions...

267
And now it seems
You are there
And here together
With me
And astrally
Seeing
Any problems
Twists in the road
Or obstructions
Coming our way...

my needs are simple
when isolated 
from my wants
it took a while
to realize
my many wants
were mere
obstructions
preventing me
from
focusing
on my dreams

We are shadows
living the dark
of our own 
obstructions

imitators of light
worshiping furnaces
cores of stars

hydrogen eaters

helium floaters

casting nets
into a sea of glitter

our daily catch
of expiring illumination

traveling ever further out

away from man's indwelling 
brilliance 

that of a Sacred Heart...

Sudden stops
    and small obstructions
Hinder progress for a bit,
But the vast store of alternatives
Make their presence known.
Unseen entities
    also have been stationed within
Inspirational distances,
All their myriad forms
    in their garments fine,
Find openings to seep through
     into my contemporary
Sphere of knowledge....

Freedom is like a flame of fire
Giving light at night
And warming cold moments
It’s a fire that burns obstructions on the way
It gives one wings to float with the wind

Unbounded freedom
Is sweetness to a decaying tooth
To the liberated and footloose
It’s not only an end 
Beckoning with a smile to jive
But a beginning,
And it’s not every beginning
Which is just bread and butter...

Brazen internal instructions
Leading to receding of mental obstructions
In the moment's abduction
And the foresight that is in construction
Finding clairvoyance in transcending of spiritual planes
Savoring the essence of every single grain
Of sands within the hourglass
Of happenstance unexplained
Blemishes in time truly stained
But it ultimately becomes beneficial wisdom to be gained......

Walking into something blinded by light
A painful and embarrassing experience
Remember that excessive speed can kill
Planets might be hidden at speed of light 

Forget the bright idea show intelligence
A vehicle which travels faster and faster
Cannot change direction in an emergency 
The light might be visible and also fluidic 
Obstructions dangers will always be solid
Remember law of physics can't be changed...

Sinew torqued and bowed as he pressed the weight
Of drudge claimed goods to be stacked and stowed.
The lady claimed that his omnipresent proclivities
Would neither build strength of character nor stature.
Laugh, she did, as she  knew the wolverine has left the den,
To  build his muscle with more willing obstructions.
The starving dog follows the master who feeds him:
And she, the mistress, always leaves flesh on the bone...

when the sun sets and quiet is restored
deepest within we feel it strike a chord
zen empowers hands us back reins of time
when our soul understands faint bells will chime
letting loose delusional connections
setting our hearts free from dark obstructions
reversal to inner peace for our mind
universal truths there for us to find
aching for harmony serenity
breaking all confines to eternity

Bottom of Totem Pole

Oh my gosh and do bless my soul
Someone is at bottom of totem pole
Then try to control way they vote
Making them become a scapegoat.

Are always rocks and a hard place
To find each difficulty we must face
All the obstacles and obstructions
Can possibly result in concussions. 

So after much further inspection
We should go in a new direction
Follow two points with persistence
Straight line is the shortest distance.
