my baby tells me
to get out of my head
and she's right
outta head into heart
let the Light touch your heart
feel stirrings of Joy
he loves best, lives best
who is firmly rooted in heart
when heart we deny
we create false projections
that we must destroy
or be destroyed by them...
calm, peace
the fruits of a joyful heart

"there is in man
a fate that lends power to his life
(I CHING)

gaining inner mastery
transcending the purely personal
entry to the cosmic realm is granted
emanations evolve
resonate, reverberate
winds gather, tides swell
heavens gates fly open
his will is ordained
the law of heaven is written...

"winds blow far and wide across the face of the earth"
(I CHING)

Joy and Light
spiritual sight

this moment
fate culd take away
in a flash
this moment
sacred as is life itself
this moment
honor life by living this moment
like the first, like the last

what is reflected
is what is projected
false shadows on the wall
a man made mad, scorched by the sun
truth lies dormant
casts no shadows

moment to moment
I escape, elude
life
from the NOW I hide
retreating to the past
leaping into "what might have been"
moment to moment
I deny
refuse
sacrifice the joy of what is
to pardon myself from
the agony of life
in the present tense
momnet to moment
the clock winds down
the truth-of-being
taps me on the shoulder
I feel his presence behind
he steps into my body
all past, all future
fall
like rags to the floor
naked
reality confronts me
I raise my hand
but have nothing to say
urine runs down my leg
puddles on the floor
I murmur no word
I have been caught
in the moment...
speechless
