One Faithful heart, One Unfaithful HeartHow different we are now
to have one faithful heart
and one unfaithful heart;
where's that bright glow?
How much sadness
we give to each other,
instead of being unfair;
distrust, rage and disloyalty
are dangerous pitfalls...
they can't avoid this tragedy!
Truly, are all...

Soul River
Lemmings run in tunnels deep,
The obsessed won't let the phantoms sleep,
But I can't stampede with brainwashed sheep,
I plunged into the soul river.
Leaving the crowd was hard to do

Is there no light
Untouched...

that we’re a form coarse,

Dreams in dreams unfold,
tales of old retold,
in a new disguise,
until ego...

Smokey Filled Speak Easy
In the dim-lit alley of the soul's bazaar,
Were jazz and jive spill from ajar,
We tap our feet, snap fingers, under stars,
And speak in verses, raw and without pause.
The city breathes, a living, pulsing beat,
Its heart...

ManLight shines upon his face, the warmth embraces him.
Reflections of the past flash upon his eyes, all the good with the bad.
Flickers of the future he desires flitter in and out of view.

My noddle ain't petabyte
But just a condign floppy disk.

And retain only what's necessary.

The Lotus and the BirdIn Chambers Grand, where silks and laughter played,
A voice within, a question soft and low,
"Tell me, dear Yashodhara, what ails your heart?
Your eyes, once radiant, now seem weighted by sorrow's dart.”
