Short Occupies Poems

Vice occupies heart,
 
Darkness envelops one's soul,

Evil's enthronement!

Occupies My Mind

Many things in my mind it occupies;
Like cries from all of the Trump lies;
Constantly worrying,
While I am hurrying,
And America sure was not very wise.

body-mind purified
earth vessel magnetised
ego identity recedes
that the will of God
be enacted by spirit

the mirror is shattered
dispelling delusion
whence light of Self
occupies centre stage 
entwined with the universe...

You're here, but you are not here
He's here, but he is not here
He occupies my mind and thought
You sit and occupy space

He's here, but he is not here,
You're here, but you are not here,
You require my energy,
He requires my time,...

Gates and mouths
Are similar in two respects;
Both require a hinge to operate
And are most often found open
When they should be closed.
Gates maintain a proper place,
While mouth's, oft times,
Spew rhetoric,
That occupies our space;...

He looks for
the part that
breaks his breath.
.
When he can't
find it life feels
uncomfortably smooth.
.
He occupies 
his early mornings
in tiny fabrications.
.
Heart full of fear,
he would say, What would 
life be without woe?...

I seek calmness and peace of mind
And find it somewhat elusive to me
Seems they delight in being hard to find
When one occupies oneself with worry
And never knows what is meant to be.

A room filled with tension
It’s like you can taste some particles
that is combined to pressurize the atmosphere.
Smelling like a room locked up for ages on no end 
But the last of tears still occupies the 
vividly colored space. 
The lost forbidden room....

 our light, cleaved from the bosom of God
now eternal and complete, as is He
albeit in a stage of infancy 
occupies a body
God creates
and thus in truth
ego is but an interface
for us to navigate this earth life
to ingrain in Self, love, wisdom and power  ...

Long gone past midnight in the morning hour
My mind still hasn't had any rest
Something unnatural, a feeling so alien
Grows inside and keeps me awake

Thoughts turning blank, can't quite put my finger
On what exactly this feeling is
An emptiness that spawns out of nothing
Yet occupies the space all over my head...

Just when I think I’ve forgotten you
Your image comes drifting through my mind.
Shattering the peaceful state
I thought I had achieved.

Though someone else occupies my time
A little piece of me is still withheld.
The piece that you took when you left.
A part that no one else can have
Because you destroyed my trust....

I do not pledge allegiance to any flag or any leader of any country.
I pledge allegiance to the earth, the global heritage of everybody.

I pledge allegiance to the earth,
and every living thing that occupies it,
and in harmony with Nature, manage this planet’s resources,
our global common inheritance shared with all of us....

At a Boulevard cafe              
sits a man near a the park
where pigeons
without corn keep company
 to someone completely
solitary...
In the café bar uselessness
from someone who elegantly
  sits alone ...
In the air the memory
of a figure that
does not occupies the
space of a soulless
body in front of an
empty coffee cup ...!...

in the universe our planet occupies a very miniscule spot.
Imagine the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors,
so that for a moment they could relish in all of their victors,
of a fraction of a dot.
In all of its vastness, no evidence in the universe dwells,
that help will come from elsewhere, to save us from ourselves....

thinking with my
head voice while
speaking with
my speaking voice
while texting with
my sign language
finger tips that often
play chords on my
string strung wooden
box that occupies
my singing voice
all happening all
at the same time
as elevator musak
in a different time
signature not
knowing if i'm
going up or
down or stuck
on one floor...

The path through my house,
is slim, and cluttered,
holding on to nothing,
not a sound is muttered.
Plenty of misery,
occupies every room,
but I keep trying,
to remove the gloom.
Mornings are much better,
evenings just pure hell
but deaf ears,
wonder through these trails.
Waiting is my game,
patience is my name,
constant is my pain,
almost insane.

Please tell me now, my dear, my love, what occupies your mind?
Are you truly happy now or is there sadness yet to find?

I do my best to make you smile and hope you’ll feel complete.
So, tell me now, my darling one, as I wait now at your feet.

I will not beg, nor ever grovel, but happily serve you well.
So, are you happy, lovely one? Please tell me now, do tell....

he is just a poet
too many years now to count

occupies time by setting to rhyme
all the hidden words his pen pours out
it seems there's a never-ending stream
of words that freely flow
from the end of the pen into this poets hand
that never seem to let him go
blowing with ease this poetic breeze
seldom seen but often felt

he is just a poet
too many years now to count...

Then came Trump 

No one talks about Syria anymore, 
 Was there a war there?
The bombing of Mosul the long siege
Trump occupies the news 
And the whole world from pigmies
In the inner Congo, to the tall Dutch
In Amsterdam, are Psychanalysts? 
The press robbed of their pompous 
Self-regard like a school yard bully
Scolded, plots shocking stories about
The President of the USA...

when mind of our heart ignites the head ovoid
innumerable nodes light up all at once
each aflame with the light of Self
signalling that the dweller of our heart
now occupies the throne it rightfully deserves

when illusionary ego dies, soul flies to new highs
our true life purpose is then revealed in clear light
‘may Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven’...

I love Bougainvilleas
Mighty thorny showstoppers
Though be careful if you come in contact
As they will cut you good and proper!

A flower of such magnificence 
With a defiant mind of its own
Growing fast and wild
Uncontrollable left unattended and alone!

Miraculous colours abound
Pure nature personified
Occupies it’s space with perpetual colour
Portraying independence and pride!...

The word "God" has only three letters,
but its significance compiles all the other words,
across time and space, like stars being swallowed
by a black hole.

God Himself is invisible,
but we find it vital to exist with his help,
like invisible oxygen, which is vital for living.

His name is very brief,
and visibility formless,
yet His essence fills every atom,
and occupies timelessness!...

There is a sword
hanging above his throne
to whom that feels  the power of power

an assassin at the gate
a complaining soul under the pillow
thorns beneath the mattress
a glowing charcoal beneath the sandals
a caterpillar near his plate
and arrow for his heart in the crowds
Surely he is most uncomfortable
that occupies the throne

Though sweet it is as bitter honey
once in, not easy to exit....
