Bitter Sweet Words

Embellished, shined, publicized

Display put on their empty core

Listen! You must abide laws. (Seize!)

The narrative of freedom, a screen.

Adore something you know nothing about

Honey like texture of sweat and sour

Fools your taste of flavor, makes you devour

Your truest nature, freshness, born greatness.

Smell their petals of fragrant flowers.

Hear their robust voice, a rallying cry

Rejoice in their sweet flavor of right.

Layers and layers on top, engineered

Made to seem bright, a call to arms. (To our demise!)

Heed the bitter sweet words

Their sentient nature,

Their abomination of truth.

Human Mind

The secret of the universe the source of the controversy hiding life's secret keeping it a mystery. No one knows what it is capable of for we have seen nothing yet there is so much more to know, to discover so much secrets to uncover. We barely scratched the surface of the power it possesses, the possibilities are endless for now it is all a mess it can be revealed only by time that will lift the shroud off of the mystery that is the human mind.

Truth Inside

what we are is not what we were told deep in time severed bond between reality and now between clarity and dark the truth that holds the key to unlocking the mystery is within every one inside our heart and our mind. we choose to listen or ignore to live our lives even more greater than before or to live as someone's pawn.

Stormy Cloud of a Poet's Mind

Words like rain dripping,
creating pools of poems
one after the another.
Stormy cloud of a poets mind,
only what is right is written down.
It’s not fame sought 
but the truth
that is trying to come out.
Sea of words like droplets in the ocean
their modicum maketh 
the greatness of emotions,
like tidal waves sweeping 
through the mess
of a human mind shining 
light on the dark.
It’s not fame sought
but the unity
of a world apart.

Burning Desire

Seeing the flame

lit up skies far away

heat of scorching fire

burns the baren thoughts

blazing trail is left behind

of memories in smoke

a flaming course

headed for it’s source

leaving ashes of prose

behind it’s fiery voice

soon everything will burn

there will be nothing left

only fiery pits 

of the now baren mind

if the thirst is not quenched

words are not found

fire of burning desire

put out.

Reader of Life

You read the script of your own life,
a book in your hand pages torn out.
It’s missing a part you can not read;
the dark chapters never really seen.
It’s a fiction or drama, in your hands.
Darkened binding or pearly white is

Read carefully you might miss the part
main character for that moment of time
will not be alive, as you read in the now
pages are then torn out, in your hands.
Beware! He will never again be alive.

Sit quietly let your mind dissolve…
follow the stream of words inside,
the rhythm of your life. Don’t forget!
Carefully handle the fragile bind!-
-or it might fall apart in your hands.

You can only ever read in this moment,
don’t try reading two pages all at once
Take time, immerse yourself, deep words.
it is in your hands; the book of your  life…
aspects of reality, dreamy world beyond.
Relax completely giving yourself to now.
under the soft warm glow of candle light.

The Day of Light

The time is at hand

to shine the divine light on the dark

that has plagued this land

for centuries now.

Clock is ticking,

everything is falling apart,

more wondering souls

are waking up.

Soon the day will come

where light will shine bright,

conquer the dark 

and Infuse

us into life itself.

I Sit Here Still

Fresh morning breeze creeping
Through an open window
Carrying ideas along with
Zephyr of inspiration,

As i sit here still listenin’ to cats
Fighting screams – “MEOW!”
The chirp of a sparrow.

I atune myself to the nature’s melodies
And just “Let go…”, squashing
Limiting beliefs that now fade
Like grayed out leaves in the autumn.

Write as sun rays bring bliss
bursting through the glass
Of my window to my heart
and  the will to carry on with it.

Just one look outside and i write.
Completely giving myself
To everything around
As i sit here still with
No worries of what is to come .
