Man caries within himself the truth of the Cosmos yet he looks outwards it to find!

Intangible

a picturesque
extravagance,charming
unsurpassed in beauty:
the detail 
smooth black
on which lightness
dwells,
then recedes
outwards,upwards
downwards
to the floor

That Which Is Lost

Two sisters sit beguiled in common guilt;
all that is left.
That
and denials;
bitterness 
turned outwards;
inwards too painful.
Truth, a casualty
like lost children.
Love, just a word.

Yellow Flower Out of Season

All alone but happy still, Vibrant, Full, Delighted, Outwards stretched rays of yellow, Holding strong, foundation grounded, Moving with the ebb and flow of forces uncontrolled, Smiling to whoever stares, Hoping maybe they do care.

The Shroud

The sky is a lively witness to waiting
The light shines it rays outwards
For those who see, it shines a beacon in a dark place
It resonates mystery
But the dance moves on without you
Only the rich burn umber smell of time remains

Searching For Motivation

oh wait that´s right it was never there
in the first place

Shh Says the Soul

shh says the soul
I must not be seen
The feathered wings of hope spread prone
seek its final rest
Inside the unseen argues with the unnoticed
Sound and words defty fill the ether
and secrets kept between myself
rip outwards for acceptance

The Kindness Wave

The ripples grow
When a pebble hits the water
The ripples grow
An act of kindness ripples too
When acted on by me to you
A wave will roll outwards on cue
The ripples grow

Started Or Created

the whole of "universe" they say
has once been prey
to this dark patch
lil strange to watch

can neither say if is inwards
or just outwards
emptiness spread
But sure is bread

bread from which the breeding began
as earth's region
then life started
or created

When the Sun Shines

When the sun shines bright
With the blue sky seen 
the sunshine teases 
Shining like diamonds
On the frozen snow
That has spread outwards

The sun shining bright
Sun glasses needed
To block the rays
Looks like diamonds
Shining sparkling
Brightly in the sunlight

Zen Mode

the human entity that feels
employs body as a springboard
in bondage to gender and tendencies
looking outwards then reviewing inwards
the pulse of duality from fulcrum of oneness
celebrating even delusion made possible by form

thus both captive and free

Mind-Body Cage

Mind-body cage, looking outwards What’s there but illusion Until attention shifts inwards We are in delusion God awaits our presence Within heart’s innocence Clue is blissful fragrance Battles we wage Mind-body cage 11-February-2022 Quietus

Beauty

Behold not the countenance 
    of beauty.
It is deceitful.
    At dawn ,it glows.
At zenith, it allures.
    At dusk, it withers.

Embrace beauty that 
    Radiates the goodness 
Of the heart outwards-
    Enriching every soul it falls upon.
And can stand 
    The test of time.

A Single Shell

An egg’s hatched.
The eagle swoops in search,
For quarry to carry in its pick.

The shell cracks; emerges outwards slowly the chicks.
They shuffle tenderly with cautious steps and flicks.
The eagle smiles post a quick survey.

Finds one shell for both prey;
Flies away.

We Are Golden

Ripples in a pool, like the ramblings of a fool,
Arc outwards and die, like us all, you and I.
Incurable romantics, and, despite the semantics,
No man is an island, we are one under the skin,
Be it gay, straight or bi, we are all of one kin.
Only remember, we are what we are
Wisps of dust, born of the same star.

-mice of Men-

MICE OF MEN

What mice
What men?
Thundering roars
Quaking earth
rocking foundations
sorry mortals
Mice of men

Glaring night
flashing light
who stands within?
To see the raging squall
as mice of men
tremble in fear
staying from sight
furies awesome might
so small outwards
with Omnipotent inner
little mice
smaller men.

SUMMER SUNRISE

SUMMER SUNRISE
The sun blooms on the horizon, golden petals stretching ever outwards into the rich blue. It is the brilliant flower of the sky warming our summer days and inviting us to a fresh start.
crimson, scarlet, rose sunrise hues slowly ascend morning’s gentle start

Dervishes

They begin to turn
Slowly unravelling
Arms unfurling, 
then skirts,
Spreading outwards
Lifting upwards

Softly stepping
Grounding down
Their feet repeat 
the pattern 
On the earth
One around the other

Whirling round
Their circular orbit
Expanding out
ascending through
Sama and devotion
Ecstasy and love

Mirrored


"Mirrored"

Yeah its bittersweet
jagged roads stagger
then homeward 
bound

the ripples roll 

like smooth stones 
thrown
across a pond
see them

concentric
repeating 
outwards
inwards

outwards

the captured
skipping across 
freedom
stories 

mirrored

In Her Hands

In her hands she carries all of her words Compassion and desire are favorites She often will intensely write backwards In her hands she carries all of her words Her writing is smooth and very outwards She never sounds below or desperate In her hands she carries all of the words Compassion and desire are favorites

The Biting Word

The words wakes up
Snapping bits and bits
Of the created world
Consiously using the darkness
As a sure guide
Slowly stretching 
this retching darkness 
Loaded with pure worded bile
Stealthily flowing outwards 
to the seemingly awaiting world
All Crests up in fading expectation 
As each words carves his niche 
Taking crunchy bites 
From every unconscious soul

The Pulsar In Death

Conned and figured as natures blue hand, 
The remains of pulsar reaching outwards;
Against nebulas field, ions-electrons
Magnetized to escape as X rated pulses:

Spun matter to burn lets nothing escape;      
After eon's we learn what they do today.  

Prompt:-
Cosmic Hand

Scarecrow On the Edge of the Ridge

The land skims along the edge of the ridge And the trees themselves look quite creepy Limbs sprout outwards making like a bridge The land skims along the edge of the ridge There’s a scarecrow that sure holds a grudge Powers of the scarecrow makes one drowsy The land skims along the edge of the ridge And the trees themselves look quite creepy
