as we savour bliss strobes
dancing around energy nodes
our heart oozes deep gratitude 
at being thus meditated upon
by the boundaryless universe...

Bliss strobes penetrate our third eye
We’re thus transformed from inside out
As rapture peaks, we feel heart sigh
Shamelessly seeking one more bout...

fingers skilfully skimming
over the piano keys
akin to bliss magnetism
renewing rapture with ease

betrothed to God, love distils
vibrations unbecoming
succumb to slow seduction
bliss strobes in our heart drumming...

Game boys
Mob the juke box
all baseball caps backwards;
singing to the loud rap music.
Lights a flashing, toes a tapping, smiling,
rosy red cheeks and fire red jerseys.
Juke box strobes, boy laughing
a trio of kids
sing too....

The automobile breezes
down the liquorice whip,
nonpareil dotted roadway
as the searing sun strobes lances
through the frozen forest;
piercing projections, phospheneal auras,
dance as retinal afterthoughts 
within the cornea of man....

Living light within pulsating
Our spiritual heart
Magnetic strobes scintillating 
Each moment afresh start

Oh hermit, just feel it
We are at the summit
Soul-body, perfect fit

Day and night
Living light

Orangy red horizon
Below earths blackened ceiling
City lights sporadic
Patterned like a starry sky
 
Distant lightning illuminates
Like dancing strobes
Momentary live
The black returns
 
Natures setting
Disappears with time
Captured
Tsunami Sunset

Heightened rapture, bliss strobes humming
All time meditation 
Magnetic beats within strumming
In body play station 

Moment by moment thus
Joyous in God’s bliss bus
Fears no longer nonplus

Our soul’s stature
Heightened rapture

I circumnavigate a resplendent globe.
A fiery tangle of thorns and strobes.
The masses rise up against my imagination.
Diseased, unwashed and tragic devastation.

A siren calls out in the dark night.
A call to arms a way to fight.
Oppressive whispers in my ear.
I'm never scared but yet I fear....

October Sky – three haiku


#1

lightning strobes hearts
thunder uncoiling whips crack
eye stinging terror




#2

frosted exodus
wingtips warming on the fly
suns iced crystal glare





#3

cold hoar frost rainbow
saddened cornucopia
tears of failing sun

As Time Goes By

sit quietly before my cake
each year a tiny flicker
to remind that life 
is easily extinguished.

the song plays softly
in my tired mind
the conflagration before me
wavers and strobes.

today is for here and now
the shining faces bid me
blow and wish. tomorrow 
will be time enough  remember....

Autumn trees burnished with silken robes
Uniform, Katsura lobes glow with cherry strobes
Twinkling-orange, Sugar Maple stars; brimming mother 
lode
Unseemly, brown-spotted, White Oak pinnates; fools gold
Majestic, yellow-crowned, Aspen leaves' pleated folds 
shimmer
Notched, White Ash lanceolates bathed in purple gloss 
glimmer...

first love was easy as a stroke
the body of april flesh,
strobes of light
on busty beats,
Bright ships unplundered
love was easy at first
the act itself
beyond fulfilments need

Then Winters call
we shed our skins
we had no calling
other than our own
just two beasts bucklering's in the night
Our pages fulfilled
we await  tomorrow's snow...

innumerable light strobes illumined
all at once with bliss magnetism 
surreal transcendental joy 
immanent within form
as an epiphany 
delighting
heart 

destiny
fast forwards
holding promise
of grace so embodying
the light of a thousand suns
transmuting this organic mind-body
into its true essence as eternal living light...

My life once depended on a friendly turn of fate

I hung my lonely lover, with a noose named heavens gate

Your life is menial to me, my friend, my ugly truth

swinging face down from the sunshine

into the darkness I consume

so I send a swarm of blackness

laced with strobes of soundless plea

please know your time is dated

until the day I set you free....

osmotic penetration so gentle
of mists divine in body temple
we feel rapture in slow motion
of thunder without commotion 
caress sublime under our skin
surging thus from deep within

today aflame are frontal lobes 
that we feel magnetic strobes
whose epicentre is everywhere
as form and void choose to pair 
in midst of bubbles of pure bliss
bestowed by Divine Mother’s kiss...

I have run my fingers
 through black inked petals, 
that trail to heaven


and sat at the feet 
 of mountains
 listening to my poets 
heart, beat


As I traveled each turn
    of the page,
     off to my left peripheral
    steadily an image has
emerged


as I grow ever more
 restful,  
the goddess strobes incandescent


and my hands,
            bleed lightning...

Within toxic seas
nonchalant eye sees
venom spread outcome
that makes our heart numb.

Slow strangulation
dampens elation,
though bliss strobes remind
us, we should not mind.

The role we enact
requires love and tact,
as our life's learning,
'twixt pain barbs churning.

With feet on firm ground, 
bliss on the rebound
banishes our pain
and cleanses heart's stain.

Walking by the ocean
With the tides and it’s white caps
Beaches of white sands
On a beautiful little island

Natives in their island clothes
Drumming and dancing in their robes
Laughter , joy and happiness
Movements under the moonlight strobes

Drinking the island rum
Eating the native dishes 
Dancing to the drums
Caviar taste and champagne wishes

From somewhere the beat of drums
Steady rhythms piercing my senses
Persistently thump, thumping a bass
Thump, thump, thump, thumping
Behind unimaginably monotonous lyrics
And I longed for a crooner like Sinatra
Center stage with a single spotlight
No flashing strobes or crystal disco balls
Or pounding migraine made to order

I see it in your eye; something there hiding;
I see it in your skin, your hair
I see it in your Gucci belt
I see it the cards you dealt

I see it in your earinged lobes
the way you dance among 
the strobes

And in the night where nothing lacks,
I see it in the beast with two backs;
something hidden you won’t say,
perhaps you will, when we are grey?

I saw Thriplow in its merriment
Vintage cars borrowed from Cambridge
and an abundance of folk singers
with strobes of defiant daffodils
food for the feasties
Morris Dancers sermonising past practice
and mud galore for the land lugger

wannabe grandad Rockabilly singers
and Betty Boothroyds cottage on display
St Johns Ambulance eagerly waiting patrons
Dray horses carrying wagons
This was an  experience to enjoy...

Benign bliss burn

Embrace and release,
bliss rapture’s deep sneeze ~
unending humming
of love strobes strumming.

Ignition replay,
every night and day ~
the benign bliss burn,
transmutes body urn.

Within womb of space,
we receive God’s grace ~
our form a mirror,
feeling each tremor.

Current’s magnetic;
our heart’s ecstatic ~
give it any name,
we are not the same.
