I like to watch
as you go thru
your daily routine
sweep the stairs
put in the wash
dust ...
its your subtle movements
that i crave
desiring to intently know
the Jill in betweeen the lines
revealed in small moment to moment
movements

the fibers of our hearts
wrap themselves into
a bond of love
weaving a bridge
between
your heart and mine

the way she loves
is so beautiful
it verges on being painful
tender is passion
the power of truth unshadowed
it is too powerful to totally behold
i catch only glimpses
flashes
of the divine
who descends and plays with us

how can i do justice to such a princess
her ways divine
strong of mind
but over-flowing with love
the passion we have known
humbles
leaves me in awe
did it really happen
these are things
I know only in dreams

wolf...
20 miles on the run
hasn't broken stride yet
a week without eating
yet she travels far and wide
from where does she draw her strength
its in the ground, the rocks,
the trees, the very air she breathes
the wolf runs
from sheer joy

one hour by the river
and the world's in order
how obedient
of nature's forces
to respond that way

forgiveness of sin
you forgive me mine
I'll forgive you yours
where does that leave the pope
out on the balcony
smoking a bowl
reminiscing bout days of ole

Zombies among us
we pretend
to feel hear and see
"Zombies turn around"
but when the dust settles
there was nothing
nothing at all
nothing to cause a stir
all go back
Zombies, as you were

like an alpha wolf
ears perked
set for danger
roaming a hundred miles square
tasting the scent in the air
going for the jugular
anything that threatens
rollin with the pups in peace and joy
when all's safe

like two wolves
we lope along
a steady gait
all that's required
soon
that high alpine meadow

everyday (date) with you
is as exciting
as the first
filled
with joy, unbounded love
what truth(s)
does this speak of

what darkness tries to obscure
is a truth a light
which is beyond its grasp
so it invokes
the shadow
quite in vain
since it is by light
that shadow is cast

when the waters get muddy
a Return
to Innocence and Truth
refreshes
like a cool breeze
Pillars of Strength are these
their influence penetrating
dispersing
dark clouds that obscure

that which is
of heaven
is easily recognized
it defies time,
space and convention
it obeys a Natural Law
an inner light
involuntarily, spontaneously
it is "free
of all scruples and doubts
which induce timid vascillation
lame the power of decision" (Wilhem, I Ching, pp.390,394)

a problem
unatural, untrue
only exists by deception
theft
nothing inferior
can stand on its own power

energy and matter
time and space
stuff...
made to order
for the human mind
as long as
the heart
is in the right place

its all about time
how
it unravels
how it unwinds
how
it conforms
to the order of mind

the end is in
the beginning
nothing to fear
eternity
present, here

a fate wedded
to hearts desire
converges in accord
with
life's winding path

seeing with clarity
requires
suffering utmost despair
the diamond
wrested from the clutches of matter
yields its sparkle
most unwillingly

pain purifies
makes pristine
holds on high
that treasure stumbled upon
in the vallley below
polished, perfected
with the sharpness of an Eagle's eye

a mother's gift
...pristine virtue
incarnate reflection
reflecting
on and on...

Annie
heaven and earth
moved
when i first saw
your face
you stood
with such Innocence
divine grace

while we struggled
matter-bound
our spirit child
hovered above
shrouding us in truth
in love
our ego-selves swamped
while our spirit child cried "fly"
once the storm passed
she descended
bearing her gifts
blessings
for us to share
we soared, once again
