A Spell (complex)

Beyond the reach of mundane grasp In pixels shining bright in cyberspace The fleeting moments thoughts arise As views & time still give us grace When fingers locks to keys transform And overflowing silence fill With paradigm & screams Thoughts now still My complex, crazy spell Weave your widening web Catch the wary & the wounded Let the tear-filled ocean ebb Sign in to see full entry.

An International Prayer

Oh Great Creator of Being! Let me be a Conduit Through which your Power Flows To everybody everywhere And not a vessel That gather nectar for myself alone Let me be a Cauldron Wherein you brew a new dish Palatable to everyone everywhere And not a cup To drink wine one at a time Sign in to see full entry.

An International Prayer Continued...

Oh Great Creator of Being!!! Forgive us our selfishness Eternal Source of Life!! We thank you for your patience with your children! We thank you for giving us this Golden Opportunity We thank you for saving us from our own delusions We wish to come home Forgive us our selfishness Welcome us in your Kingdom Sign in to see full entry.

Fantasy vs Reality

At first... broken bits and bubbles beckon the light of truth too blindingly bright Slowly we slip into the dim light Wet souls caressed into new bodies Then birth and back into the scorching sun! flee, flee from the Sun beckon the moon I will reflect for you dimly now the rays reflect calling us back, back back to the bright Sun of Truth Sign in to see full entry.

A New Hope

I saw you there...my People, everywhere Now is the time to know, Now we have to draw the bow Forget the riches made of dust, Lay down your greed and lust Face the Sun and feel the Air, For free its ours to share Dig your feet into the Earth, Wash with water away your worldly worth Enter the dream we're here to share, Escape the dragons liar Now pray this new prayer: Our Father who is in heaven We bow to You times Seven Our Mother under our feet Give us what we need to eat Forgive us our lost...

Now

The only time is now Moments past will never last Only traces, footprints and shadows cast The only time is now What's to come will come from this Only in the present can arise true bliss Dreaming of the future you cannot truly be Dreaming of the past you cannot truly see Every single moment counts Every thought, action and what gets said Letting them slip away, is being dead This is all we need Be here now your only deed Even as these words you read Sign in to see full entry.

Emptiness and Form

Nothing by itself can be Independent, alone and free Al that is, dependently arise Deliberately you must this surmise Emptiness of self is there to see Since forever has this been our decree Once you know the nature of the wise From delusion you too can easily now rise Interdependent is all phenomena that come to be Even so with you and me No Thing in this world arise No One in this world a constant size Al you see is always shaped Nothing has this rule escaped An endless dance of endless forms...

A Spell

To be but able once to grasp To pin down onto flattened space The fleeting moments thoughts arise As views & time forever race As pen or key the flatness forms The empty whiteness fill With words & whispers Movements still My single, simple spell Weave your widening web Catch the wary & the wounded Let the tear-filled ocean ebb Sign in to see full entry.

The Certainty of Death

While alive you just have to strive with purpose to dive into the hornets hive None that are born forever the Earth adorn All that are born with age become worn No obstacle too great None can escape this date Soon it will be too late Certainly to die is your fate Use this precious Life although ridden with strife to gnosis cut like a knife becoming the Truth's wife Death is everywhere you cannot hide here or there Apply your mind with great care to death we go bare Sign in to see full entry.
