Short Questioner Poems

small dot centred within
a circle of infinite radius

we are both
both are one

the questioner disappears...

Me.
Unique,

Strong,
Fragile old girl, gentle questioner,
unshakeable hand,
Curious eye, quiet ear....

Regardless the battlefield,
   one fight rages on

Regardless the outcome
  —a warriors song

Regardless the politics,
   the brave fight and die

Regardless the questioner
  —blood telling no lies

Prince without a lineage
King without a throne

Master without servants
Lover of that unknown

Hearer of what’s unspoken
Seer of things divine

Lord among the jesters
Voice for all the mimes

Reason when excuses falter
Questioner when answers fail

Link between the seasons
First breath a baby wails

(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2016)...

Prince without lineage
King without a throne

Master without servants
Lover of that unknown

Hearer of what’s unspoken
Seer of things divine

Lord among the jesters
Voice for all the mimes

Reason, when excuses falter
Questioner, when answers fail

Link between the seasons
 —first breath a baby wails

‘Who am I’ an unanswerable question
The questioner being in a hypnotic trance
The mind that asks itself requiring negation
Dissolution of identity being our only chance

Clue being ‘what is that that neither comes nor goes’
That that experiences unaffected as formless awareness
Silence & stillness revealing our Self as bliss in repose
Resonating with Ohm in an unceasing flow of blissfulness...

A question asked
Heard by none
Never spoken
Nothing done

A question answered
Somehow they knew
Talked to the air
As confusion grew

The questioner replied
Muttered no sound
Nothing to be seen
Searching around

The answerer asked
What's going on?
In the empty silence
Fearing sanity gone

Confused at themselves
'It's nothing' they said
And then a little startled
Walked on and shook their head

speaking to a dark current
in my own rhythm
the droning wash of tones
calling to all anxiety as kindred
collected here
to revel in exceptional acceptance
a rare platform for difficult emotions
fingering the feelings which words
are inadequate to describe

in this space
i am free to roam
unashamed
there are no wrong answers
because there are no questions

no questioner

only the endurance
of the un-involved observer

Ugh!

Latching onto this ones own miserable misery 
Creating a fog sweeping sweet 
She brushed her brow, put on make-up
Turning the other cheek

She favored ignorance is no excuse
When she thought ignorance is bliss
She had it in the bag to begin the abuse

What suiting question for the questioner
If I pulled a rabbit from a hat 
Could you please disappear

Humiliated emotions
Don't seem to strike her
Awkward moments
She can't seem to recover...

The moon fills from the top
Each day gets lighter, growing
How it hold the light and it not run out
The bottom just pouring

Seeing the moon in day
Up in the clear sky blue
Makes mind search for way to express
Ones' questions about you

Momma always said that
I could ask more questions
Than Philadelphia lawyer
Her.....abstentions


(My mother always said that I asked too many questions ...Very inquistive child was I....Still 
wonder.....The word abstentions means ...no do.)...
