grey mist shrouds distant peaks
dawn close night’s window to sky
rise sun, give us life

Air
Are we aware of air’s pervasive presence?
Subtly aware, perhaps.
It is air’s absence,
air’s movement,
air’s temperature,
by which our awareness awakens.
Reach up, grasp at the unseen,
the air.
Bring down the empty hand,
filled with air,
filled with light
allow that hand the insight
to feel […]

Soul
I’ve avoided the soul,
heart of asymmetry,
where the shimmering flames
of who I am
sneer at what I would have presented,
had the world been ready.
The meeting is brief,
this soul of mine and I,
alone in the knowledge
that can only lead
to a return of indifference;
seduction […]

Serene
Serene, though I can’t proclaim to be,
I’ll meditate and try to see
an empty space invade the clutter,
with its own impartial lack of reverence
for the disorder of a non-impartial mind,
hoping, a spirit within to find.
I welcome the empty space, the empty time;
the perfect pause in daily deliberations;

Intervention of the Gods?
I’ve come to realize
I’ve seen it all through a pair of eyes
more open than they were before
more searching
than I ever thought
they could ever be.
Searching for real answers,
that lurk
in untrodden corners of this mind
searching, hoping to find
an inner strength
to get through […]

Salient Mind
Peace, serenity;
a lonely stage
surrounded by and
saturated with
so much
infant rage.
I claim a clarity
of this, my salient mind,
while clinging patiently
to the obedient,
but blind.
Their choices
need not the attention of
madness;
my eyes meet theirs;
I see […]

Still
I am still
without movement
still
without pain
still
without a thought of why I am
still
without the clarity to cloud my being
still
without what I need to be me
I am still
without action
still
without reaction
still
without the patience to really […]

Disheartened Graces
I believe in the present
but not in your lord,
I believe in a spirit here
that’s fighting for more.
I believe in the righteousness
of what lays within
the crowd devil’s sword that
prevents it from being
this bone and lust kills me with a
bitter forced sadness
when I held […]

Mountains
And the snow it glows in the moonlight there
and the cold of the night fills the air,
I go onward and forward and faster towards
the mountains that will bring unseemly rewards.
The white fields glow by the light of the moon,
And an eerie presence prevails as I arrive too soon.
for the […]

Family Tied
Mortality brings us closer;
It isn’t easy, living, being human,
Being a part of the bigger scheme of things
that we never get to know or fully understand
Until that moment when our mortality rears
its ugly head
and lets us in on the secret
we’ve forever waited to understand.
I’ll miss her […]
