poetry

Carbon wings releasing upwards

Allow, for Death refreshes

Tears soften

You fly, alone

Amidst the silence, a heart hears its own name

Called upon to step forward

Onto this living boulder, again

This consciousness shall guide me through Pandora’s landscapes.

A thirst for life and a cup full of love, for pouring, will lie behind this face.

Deeply, I long to hear and see the soul— any other mode of encounter is a blurred name, a miscarriage, a tragedy.

I will mend this throat and mind together, finding the true body’s voice, in spite of the winter’s barren silence.

Tending to the wilting plants and breathing deeply within this furnace.

There are spirits, gods, viewers, visitors.

Remember your motives.

Remember Death!

The spiritual emergency

The Karma

I am being summoned to resolve

Is that of Dissociation.

It takes strength to love this much

It is love whom asks us to stretch our capacities

This is the language of change

The language is change is love

A heart meditating in motion

The magic within the wedding of two opposites

In the unison of work and non-work

In the nothingness of the doing

In the offering of nothing cloaked as love

Effortlessness

Wu Wei

I am looking into the archetypal patterns of this universe

Into faces and spirits all around me

Seeing from within, I recall their familiar nature

Like ripples of song across her ocean body

Ever-generating the mirage of change

Heat rising in concentration

From the belly of the heart

I am pregnant with an inner eye

Who knows a bodily truth

Forget ideas

Ideas are senseless

Against this body of truth

The only thing which ‘makes sense’

Is the nakedness of the body

In its authentic centering

Extending the ultimate ‘This’

Through the unity of peace, and peace alone

For peace is capacity

True Yin

Giving, the ultimate receiving

My ultimate fate lies within my heart

Oh, heart of darkness

The wet warm womb

Fertility is so much more than you know

Listen to the fertile seeds within yourself

The visions of heart and spirit

There were bundles of matter,

to which form asked:

“How are you doing in there?”.

Harmonic bile oozed from cavernous pores. 

There was dissonant freedom,

a textural band shot through space, penetrating the membrane— waking, wake up, fast.

Consonance.

There was balance, not a state, but an act of real time.

Behind the lids of closed eyes, standing.

The rain convinces you that you are melting, liquefying.

Panicked in an ocean of peace.

Rising backwards, disintegrating.

There was sensation in the empty elevator, where one's mass was so present, their bones tickled softly.

A child at a fair, roller coasters left and right. Experimenting with sensation, pushing physical limits. 

“Can we ride it again? One more time, please!”, The young Eros begs his Mother and Father.

“We’re sorry, we’ve run out of tickets. It is time to go home, time to be bathed and tucked into bed.”

There was night. Warmth. Darkness.

Embraced in his bed by non-living material. 

There is no end to this.

Ringing echo, unanswered question.

A gust of sound so eerie the cave itself perspires.

Quivering earth.

Lulling, droning, bodies of chant

Produced by no all.
