if our mood be easily altered
by a small shift in the matrix
are we not as yet stagnating 
hypnotised by ego’s cheap tricks...

I
Her name rhymes with serene
Patience unheard of - unseen
God sent me my queen
II
Hope fluttered, sank low
Stagnating whirlpool edges
Then the flow - loves cascade...

when we have this, we then want that
begging for more, passing the hat
stagnating in this earth life dream
bemused by illusions that stream
dead man walking, blind as a bat

Shrouded in imaginary fear
Consciousness contracting
Illusionary demons sear
In dark shadows cowering 

Cause being our attachment
To that that is impermanent 
Self blocking bliss contentment 
Stagnating in gluey sediment

Eating is at an all-time high.
Processed foods is what many buy.
Sluggish meats sit for years in our gut.
Stagnating us, taking our strut.
Leafy green veggies is what we should eat.
Chocolate candy and cookies truly defeat.
I buy the greens, every week the same fee.
Throwing them out when they get too gamey....

pristinity of unfettered awareness
on earth hemmed in by senses
contoured in organic form
and enslaved by mind
is the cage it’s in
as we chose
and yet
always free
upon dissolving
intent birthing desire
attachment begetting fear
flowing instead of stagnating
in dynamic stillness, ever in renewal...

to bend
in surrender
ego yielding
to the soul
within our heart

both are us
with this difference
ego identity
soul universality 
ego grasping
soul connecting 

flowing 
versus stagnating
seeking
versus being

the way
simple
we melt
to merge
ego with self

the gross falls away
we cease to sway
abiding in silence 
of innate innocence

Fear of abandonment, not a mere dream,
presenting itself, as a life learning.
Innate bubbling joy, now no longer streams,
free will choosing, in sorrow stagnating.
Soaking in pain, consciousness contracting,
the Phoenix rises with a silent roar!
Rekindling hearts flame, into the sky soars!
No longer attached to fears and desires,
love thus gently outpours, keeping no score,
vibrant with bliss within, heart all afire!

Nothing lasts, only memory remains
 and even they, fade into distant grays stained,
blends of pale whites, burnished black
 rubbed in the shine of towering dusk churning plaque,
clouded skies meshed beyond the light of the sun 
 to undo what morning had first begun.
Each step was taken in silhouette inflations
 faded to shadows cast against a struggled flirtation
where time passes into a stagnating display 
 the mix of every shade of palest gray....

Delusion using imagination
Reflections of attention enlivens
Arising from differentiation
Polarisation has stillness shaken

Inversion of awareness so looking 
Pausing thus awhile to assimilate
Stretches time itself, whilst so stagnating
Ego spawned bubbles thereby co-creates

Dreamed not knowing that it is the dreamer
Searches for itself amidst illusions
No one else may awake it from stupor
Until exhaustion ushers cessation

Casualty of Loss

Drifting in murky waters
shadows lengthening
with sorrow’s darkness blight.
Cobwebbed remembrances
take flight, taking with it 
prism’s life-light

Shades of gloom
mist yonder shores
obscuring vision, while
leeching into the life source
stagnating the living waters.

Cruel fate laps brutally
against the sands of time
while memories smother
and are swept away
on death borne
callus waves

Lifeboat sinking 
with life’s bleedings
along shadowed shores....

Quest
for joy
eternal,
begins within
in contemplation,
then still meditation,
melting into no-thingness 
whereupon we be to become,
the very essence of love supreme,
vibrant in aliveness within this dream.

All that that comes and goes, being not real,
we witness the movie being played,
engaging without stagnating.
Our emptiness magnetic
draws in the elixir,
of divine sublime.
The bliss current
throbs within 
without
end.
