Meditation

Meditation

A circle of light beyond the blindfolds

The sphere inside me

brought out

expanded

I become more than what I am

Beating heart

Shining star

For a few moments

I become what we all are

The dust of what was

The flesh of what is

The dream of what will be

A Thousand Things

A Thousand Things

A thousand things seen in:

The promise of red sand

lands I have yet to explore

traveling

in both inner and outer space

The wisp of incense smoke

snaking it's way up

dissipating

becoming one with air

The flicker of a candle flame

rooted yet always dancing

contained

the potential to light up the world

The tranquility of water in a cauldron

nature's reflection

stillness

in the depth of eternity

Dancing With My Shadow

Dancing With My Shadow

The darkness moves

The air is swimming

blacker than black

Weaving thru space

my shape takes form

The primordial urge

swings in the hips

Killer instinct

surges in the belly

The fatal blow

lives in the hands

Survival will

creates motion

dancing destruction

deadly focus

murderous rage

behind the movement

Veils of

hate

anger

arrogance

cover the energy

yet

I control the movement

I dictate the motion

I decide the action

I choreograph the dance

Crystal Ball Gazing

Crystal Ball Gazing

Ice

rainbows and water

sharp jagged landscape

inside a smooth sphere

I see myself traveling

a landscape

solitary

but not alone

barren

but not lifeless

Terrains cut and blunt

unforgiving

yet the difficulty is easily born

happily

walking alongside sheer cliffs

traversing upon glass

living inside a diamond

Peace within

and

peace without

my world

within

a world
