One Small Step, One Giant Leap
With those who
want to test the waters,
and yet have no wish
to get their feet wet,
but wait to have their cake
(and eat it too)
handed to them on a plate,
I will neither split hairs
and pick nits
nor reason or debate
(or tear their thoughts to bits)
so,
if they're going to 'fly',
(jump to a conclusion)
either do it or don't,
as Yoda said,

Oh, What A Tangled Interweb We Weave
Don't like the look of what's going on
seems to you something's wrong
the smell of corruption in the air
look around it's everywhere
can't place the feel of what's happening here
could it be something to fear
the sound of conniving on the wind
a warning call for all thin-skinned
so round and round and round we go
where it stops no one

Step Up or Shut Up, Bro!
You scorn the work my chisel made,
Yet you have never held the blade.
You see the flaws, call them mistakes,
But you have no idea what it takes.
It’s easy to point the finger with empty hand,
To stand high ashore and sound so grand.
But the sea never hears from those aground,
Only from

Liberation step 3
light imbibed must be assimilated
present always in active cognition
when awareness is not agitated
God’s love and light is our heart’s emission
unbroken then remains His transmission
poised as such liberated while alive
we see God in each form in heart’s bliss hive

Liberation step 2
observe habit patterns that bind
exerting a compelling bind
from which if we wish to be free
befriend silence, with love aligned
awareness free from our mind tree
ambles gently through life carefree
detached yet vibrant and alive
soul with laws of God does agree
sipping nectar from heart’s bliss hive
with no need to struggle and strive
detached from outcomes we

Liberation step 1
Heart empty, we invoke bliss magnetism,
not imbibing but becoming the flame,
which fully illumines mind-body prism,
after which we are no longer the same,
reclaiming light of Self, in life’s end game.
Nodes within stir and all boundaries blur ~
With laws of God, we willingly concur

Toward you I move, with every step lost in the wind that sings stories
Toward you I move, with every step lost in the wind that sings stories,
When I say I'm coming home, I'm actually moving toward you, though I scatter along the way,
The warmth of returning envelops me like a cloak woven from memories of longing,
And the milestones of the roads press like long shadows stretching over ancient

In the silence that wraps around me like a mantle of silver mist, I step lightly
In the silence that wraps around me like a mantle of silver mist, I step lightly,
Without the need to prove anything to anyone, without the desire to seek validation,
In that sacred space of the soul where the echoes of the world dissolve into silence,
A place where my story no longer needs to be told, nor

STEP UP BEYOND
Every step a blessing to climb
Foot by Foot approach
Step by Step at a time
Minute to the hours
Step up
The chosen
Precision Heaven walk
Granted by Courage
Established by Determination
Supported by Faith
Maneuvering through the atmosphere
The target being the kingdom
Guided through the way
Earth being the gateway beyond
Wisdom that follows
Everlasting promise
Pearly Gates Open
Angel’s welcome
Step by Step fulfilled
Granted through the Lord’s acceptance

Mind the Step
Mind the step,
see the crack
that let's light in.
Take care,
tread in the prints,
of my foot sures and fells.
Hold my hand,
to pause-a-while,
to quell leap's surge.
Wait-a-while,
till the lilt of thorns,
and tilt of will subsides.
Take heed,
of the need for caution,
to survive the free-fall
leap of faith,
without cause and or chute,
into oblivion.

Step In
God will step in
Bring you out
Turn your whole situation around
God will step in
Bring you out
Turn your whole situation around
God will step in
Bring you out
Turn your whole situation around
He will set your feet on solid ground
You don't have to worry
Feel alone
Or be discouraged
GOD will break the yoke of

STEP INTO THE FLAME
songer.co/song/iqqao6a02wkrk4h3a0mh4w3d
[Verse 1]
I came from silence, came from smoke
From roads that never stayed the same
From days that faded into dust
And nights I didn’t bother to name
I wasn’t reaching for a sign
Wasn’t hoping much at all
But something brushed across my soul
And made me pause, made me fall
[Pre-Chorus]
It wasn’t loud, it wasn’t clear
Just something burning somewhere near
[Chorus]
I took

one step at a time
synapses continued their neuronal junction
long after the seed’s path had been planted
the miracle proceeded in mind and mindfulness
as the journey became her labour of love
prismatic eyes shone once again in a mirror
polychromatic and full of compassion and trust

Step Stance
Dark chest
inhale your bite
exhale its shadow
wings that twisted pierce
like barbwire
cover your heart
black feet on glass
I watch my spine
still touch me
A raven cries
give me my nights,
give me my nights,
