Colossians 2:8

Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition
of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

passive quiet still
where reflections lie

to wander,to dream
digress and mystify

then discover and discern
the rudiments of grace

with exegesis rather than
eisegesis or paraphrase

a doctrine from macro
to micro....conceived

ones lifetime pursuit 
            mind and heart are in dispute 
                     faith not absolute
             now arrives moment of truth 
                trust in god or parachute

THE RUDIMENTS OF WINGS

Barely stubs,
these soul nodules, 
not yet protruding the surface,
still part of the wormlike me.
The force of metamorphosis 
thrusts hard against filmy chrysalis;
meconium pulses, dilating miniscule veins.
The terror of change soon will cease,
bring release,
to the rudiments of wings.

The Rudiments of Wings

Upon your wings, 
You soar high up,
As far as the wings can carry,
No obstruction to meander,
No obstacle to scale over,
The expanse of the sky is all that there is,
Until your feet find,
A home with the eagles,
An abode with the mighty.

As a grey dove, nestlings are taught
     The Basic Rudiments of Wings:
if one falls, it cannot be caught
     First, learn to fly, then how to sing.
A perfect lesson elders bring.
     A human babe, on other hand,
is often caught before he stands.
    So, as life goes, if he should fall,
expects a catch before he lands.
     He needs to learn how to forestall.

Graveyard Angels

wings unfurled in protection
eroded from surrounding rudiments
along a beacon of illumination

visage composed and serene
branching arms cradling cleaving souls
afraid to fade into eternal rest

gifts born from remembrance
weeping, wilting, worn
beneath a wandering ivy-covered guide

quiescent consignor of peace
beyond the cessation of life
- suspended in advocation

Clown

A clown,
Mirror,reflecting your laugh back.

A clown,
Rudiments of jokes, penetrate  hearts.

A clown,
laughing stock,
Prayers of weeping heart,
Burst in  laugh.

A clown,
Mask of comics,
Making others joyful.

A clown,
Hiding  pains ,making others,
Pleasant.

A clown,
Freezing tears , inner,
Corner of his eyes,

A clown,
Stealing  hearts,
By Showering jokes.

Until It Is Unexpected

mr. macy
picture of health
now sounds like mr. troutman

thinking about mouth to stoma
thinking about the whiskers growing
thinking about the phlegm now having a new exit

ms. pennymarker
picture of health
now sounds like the small wonder girl

thinking about mouth to stoma
thinking about the new rudiments of swallowing food
thinking about the regrets now suddenly at the surface

Birds

Brilliant pilots
With no college certificate, but
Knows all the rudiments to flight;
The escapes, and
Never does crash.
I want to fly like the birds,
Colorful in the sky,
With no buzz as with the plane.
I jumped in the air, but
At once I crashed, and
Bunked my head,
I screamed of pains, and
The sight of the wonderful fleet I lost.
Then in a twinkle little while,
Each party to the fleet
Dropped a bunch of rose on my head.
O! What love untold.

Time is exhausting…
    It lays in wait 
         to provoke you

pinches that part of you 
      that hurts most,
tears away 
       at your ambition,

laughs at 
     your inability 
to stand up 
         and fight
futile battles 
              that bury you.

Try to escape, 
       but like that 
little hamster 
        on its wheel
you will go 
        nowhere.
