Premium Member Thought of the Day

Relinquishing ownership over thought
It exerts on us no hypnotic pull
Ego may have desires but we do not
From head to toe bliss replete, we feel full

Premium Member Thought of the day

resurrecting gods worshiped in our dreams
reality of what is, is denied 
relinquishing belief borne by thought streams
with the pulse of clear truth choose to abide

Premium Member septembers truth

labor day heralds her arrival
she is toasty warm this year,
uneasy about relinquishing summer
school excitement has turned to disappointed sameness
in but a few days

Premium Member Hush the blush

To state the truth stark,
heart’s insentient to love,
so my soul lives in the dark.

No matter my love,
relinquishing thought flow crutch,
feel God’s grace within by touch.

A Memory of Joy

My body is sick 
changing one way 
To prepare for life
and then changing again
Relinquishing life
Purging out the remains
When once it had gathered 
Hope to bear fruit 
None remains 
but a memory of joy

Anniversary

Absolutely
no question that
normal life unequivocally
is life with you --
voracious in love, an
energetic longevity of devoted time,
resilient in forgiveness,
sure I am
always already
relinquishing
your ying to my yang.

as magnetism causes ego to fade ~
the table is laid for bliss ready made

rapture rises even as we stand still ~
all the doings are done by divine will

consumed by God’s flame in mind-body urn ~
relinquishing fear, we willingly burn
Form: Couplet

Premium Member Brave

Better to try than to never know
Relinquishing comfort for an unknown gain
Acknowledging what it takes to grow
Valiant within torrents of rain
Emboldened in the midst of pain

Premium Member Ultimate Resentment

telling me how to dress and behave
how to walk and talk
telling me who I can make a friend
and who I can’t
I listened because I wanted to please you
Your pouting ways kept me fearful and compliant
now I despise myself for relinquishing my power to you

Premium Member As we atone

As we atone for blood we spilt, we know we knew not then, yet strangely we’re consumed by guilt, weakening yen for zen. Choosing to exchange roles, relinquishing all goals, we walk over hot coals. We walk alone, as we atone.

Premium Member Follow

You followed the moon 
At dusks lonely stage
Darkness and clouds 
Daylight slowly fades
I chased after the sun
At morning skies wake
Paths never crossed
A subliminal fate
Hearts unfound pleasure 
A sad lovers tears
A day for some lovers
Relinquishing fears

Premium Member Zen mode

stability in oscillations
by adaption and flexibility
relinquishing mental resistance
as a flowing orientation 
steadies the flame

we are the sunset
dying without any regret
as also beauteous glory of dawn
playing all life roles assigned
in vibrant nonchalance

Premium Member Hold firm resolve

Hold firm resolve, to remain still, gentling thought, word and deed, that thus by relinquishing will, we let love take the lead. Awake dear heart, awake Be tranquil like a lake Our soul’s growth is at stake If we’d evolve Hold firm resolve
Form: Rhyme

Premium Member Equanimity

a surprise is sprung
of the nasty sort
but the beauty is
our heart does not contort

something has changed
a definitive shift
aided by bliss mists
we see consciousness lift

there’s nothing we did
save relinquishing identity
all that is, is grace
to grant heart serenity

Hands of Time

Waddling through memories with my head down low
With my heart down low
Reliving tragic love scenes I'd forgotten
Penitent lovers come like phantoms in the night
Relinquishing my sorrow of long ago
Swimming in a celestial sea of what could have been
I feel so cold, so hollow within.

Equalizing the Heart

Could care less what they think
Just sit back and watch them sink
So many things already said
Ego taking over the head
Relinquishing it all from the start
Equalizing the heart
To set the path straight
To have the key at every gate
Not in my choice
To finally listen to the right voice

Premium Member Ulladu Narpadu Addendum 165

Why would we strive to become who we are,
being simply the light that lights all lights,
here and now within, not some place afar,
felt as humming magnetism that delights,
banishing blackness of the darkest nights.
Relinquishing vicarious knowing,
in tranquil silence we keep on flowing.

Love's Reflection

I see the reflection
of love's waters 
in her soft blue eyes.

I smile.

I stare ever deeper 
and find my gaze afloat
on glistening pools 
of passion.

My mind swims.

I fight against 
the rushing
currents of her
raging soul.
Relinquishing
myself to its
undertow.

And I drown.

the subset of a set cannot step outside it unless it first disappears a fish caught in a net cannot escape entrapment unless it becomes the water element likewise we cannot know God unless we first extinguish our ego completely relinquishing lower mind 11-May-2023

Journal Entries

Jotting down juicy journalism 
Opening oodles of oppressed optimism    
Understanding unity usually unites universally 
Relinquishing random rants 
Naturing neat notions never noticed
All adventures allow an ample accumlation of antadotes   
Love literature like a libidinous librarians long lost lover

Winter Is Here

Wind rushes past my ears
Inside my coat it fills
Nothing short but unhappiness
Terrain and all it kills
Enigmatic is this season
Relinquishing its reason

Indoors is where I will stay
So long sunshine in my day

Hearth is my dear friend 
Efficaciously closing me in
Rallying its victims
Ending all that's been

Premium Member Dead Souls

Men have become dead souls
Hungry for his own flesh 
Striking bonds
while stacking bones
Relinquishing the second vow to the almighty
Now hallowed
Dried up to the deep
Only hearing the sacred bellowing
Amidst the depth
From scattered scrolls
Meshed together piece by piece
With a call to herald the naughty souls
