Stretched in Two

Sometimes you get stretched in two
And, though you do what you must do,
You know there might be someone who
You’ve made a bit depressed.

Your reasons might be clear to you
But possible to misconstrue,
For everybody’s point of view
Won’t always be expressed.

And even if you had a clue
And agonized and thought it through,
You had to go with what

On the wall stretched her shadow, like a dream lost in the deep night

On the wall stretched her shadow, like a dream lost in the deep night,
An unknown secret, revealed only when light approaches timidly,
It lingered there, a silent paradox like a whisper on the lips of silence,
It was unfaithful loyalty, demanding devotion like a rebellious wind,
You felt the hidden chaos behind a truth seeking support,
A soul bearing

Stretched upon the meadow of memories, under the sky that spreads like a blue velvet canvas

Stretched upon the meadow of memories, under the sky that spreads like a blue velvet canvas,
I think of the men who buried their dreams under the damp and cold earth,
those who let their souls drift on rivers of despair,
seeking solace in the face of storms of tumult and darkness,
who no longer knew how to catch

In a long-forgotten time, when the sky stretched like an endless canvas of dreams

In a long-forgotten time, when the sky stretched like an endless canvas of dreams,
Poets were magicians, weaving incantations with words, more powerful than swords or crowns,
More eternal than the whispers of fallen gods, lost in the abyss of oblivion.
I remember, or perhaps it’s the memory of the wind, its whispers bringing buried memories,
They stood on

Under the cathedral of infinity, stretched above lost dreams

Under the cathedral of infinity, stretched above lost dreams,
I do nothing with my life but romanticize and decay in indecision,
I weave dreams from the ethereal threads of the moon and drape them with the charm of shadows,
Wandering through the corridors of the mind, falling into the abysses of uncertainty.
In the mysterious night, where the stars

Today, love drifts in the air, like a silk rope stretched beneath the shattered moon

Today, love drifts in the air, like a silk rope stretched beneath the shattered moon,
The spirits of the night grasp it with their trembling fingers, sifting it amongst the twinkling stars.
It gently sways, suspended in infinity, like a phantom in search of solace,
Transforming into a constellation, it becomes the nebula where love comes to awareness.

Beneath the stretched-out, nocturnal firmament, thoughts overwhelm my being

Beneath the stretched-out, nocturnal firmament, thoughts overwhelm my being,
Questions unassuaged by answers, echo of the void,
About forests of the future, trees with waiting roots,
About children from untold dreams, with smiles that cannot be found.
Those books with pages lamenting for the ink's caress,
How they remain closed in the drawers of oblivion, begun and never finished,
Phantoms of

The life of every man is infinite, a canvas stretched beyond the horizons

The life of every man is infinite, a canvas stretched beyond the horizons,
A silent theater where the mysteries of the restless being are played without words,
Where thoughts are ships that float on seas of untraveled constellations,
The depths of the soul – endless oceans that embrace the elusive skies.
Thus, each moment becomes a ritual in the

Time Stretched Peace

feel ye not yet
the definitive knowing
by which everything is known

as self-referral consciousness 
renewing itself in itself
we live in clover

Time Stretched Stillness

Time stretched stillness, poised awareness
Agendaless vibrance
Imbibing bliss in playfulness
Pure, childlike innocence 

Shaped upon the anvil
We are still, as voids fill
Soul’s easy ride uphill

Key to wellness 
Time stretched stillness

Time Stretched Stillness

We
awake
to the morn
vibrant, alive,
flowing in silence,
as soma nectar seeps
into each node of our form,
in delightful bliss tease of love,
as purring rapture transmutes us thus.
Essence of presence, looks on in wonder!

Feeling complete, with bliss replete, love greets
stirrings of thought, distilled at Gods feet,
each pore a door, to bliss in-pour,
no one here, to keep a score,
we become

Time Stretched Stillness

that that has been so far concealed 
in timeless time will be revealed
presence waits in stillness sedate
unending silence that elates
dweller of the void this content
to each life pulse is sentient
eye of each storm in quietude
effortless flow of fortitude 
vibrant in the continuum
each node joyous sensorium
cognising the silent thunder
imbibing rapture in wonder
moment to moment in embrace
inpouring

Just Like a Cat

Is your body blooming from the calories your consuming and you threw away that yoga mat? Learn a lesson from a cat. If too many hours on your derriere you've sat, playing on face book, conversing on chat, observe a cat. Are you curled up in bed and taking a nap? Filled with excuses not

Out Stretched Wings of Thought

I sought to take flight in my mind
One day so away from my perch
I did soar gliding on out stretched
Wings of thought over the landscape
Of my mind 

 I traveled to many fantastic places
That physically I will never see
kept loft by the winds of consciousness
Swirling under my outstretched wings

High above looking down on all
My minds

Stretched Clerihew

Hasongou
comes down to earth, gives up a hit or two.

Deliberate.

to fool the next opponent
he’ll frequently resort to hide his best component.
