Transparent fog!

Where would we be if not for the buoyancy?
What would we see if not for the vision?
What would we hear if we refused to listen?
What would I become if I stopped repenting?

“And I won’t let you go!”
My strong tower!
My sanity!
My trying hour!

What do I do with these remnants?
What do I do to tame this internal rumbling thunder?
Therefore I rummage through the engrams
Searching frantically for release!

This presence has driven me.
Present in my bosom!
Present in my psyche!
Present in my heart’s eye.

I reply when the whispers speak.
Luckily, they speak with clarity.
I thank you ABBA,
For making transparent the fog!

digging my way through the fog
constantly buried in malaise
dredge the lake bring up rich soil
clear away the remnants of my father

the days are long sometimes
not seeing for hours, days
caught in this winter wonder
I find Satan pressing down on me

peering through the fog I see you
aware of my plight you move swiftly
taking me by the hand, restoring me
now I see through the miasma

I see clearly now!

Aside the Redeemer
Right there aside the Redeemer
Teeming in mercy they cursed me they did
Even took my kid

Gladly they desecrate the Wiz
But we still surge, even submersed in the deep Spirit
Journeying beyond yesterday’s weep
They being conscious finally hear it

Humbled through the vengeance
Feeling through the pangs of these mental emotional prisons
No thanks to be given suffering through those trimmers
Just another journey of the sinning I remember

Those legions of demons
Warring within the temple feinting
Mommy awakened screaming
But still no clemency

Still
No clemency

My Raven
Posted: 12/16/2006 9:21:40 AM
My Raven
~~~~~~~~~~


Once upon a frightening night, I sat troubled, at my own delight
Over the writhing of my mysterious dissention, my simple life
I lazily drifted off through the sandman’s dust, whence came a shallow tapping
No more than a gentle rapping, rapping at my cottage door
“A traveler to happen upon me,” I whimsically mumbled, tapping at my cottage door
Only the sound, not another thought.

Freely reviewing my mind, I know of it to be a cold December morn,
And every last desperate fire tossed its soul upon the ground
Anxiously I begged for a latter day- in vain I knew of which to blame
From his books of time, ancient scrolls of his lost Lenore
A gem of rare beauty, a bride of only the angels and time
Without a name to claim, for eternity.

As I pulled the curtain to the side to peer amidst the leaves
I am confounded to not find a visitor, but only the wind rushing by
My fear causing a rapid heartbeat, to be heard only through my veins
“Where are you visitor of my blackened morning
My early stranger excusing themselves to my cottage door
It is you again and not another thought to it!”

All at once my character arched and billowed out strength, I ran to my door,
“Gent,” I said, “or is it Lady, I desperately need to know of your needs;
You see I was caught in a lazy slumber of my hearts desire
When so distinctly you began a tapping, yet but just a hair whispered
I suppose I only heard you in a naked thought”- the door flung open to see
Blackened morning, nothing else.

Through a tunnel of darkness, I’m eerily feeling aloud, lost in fear
Pessimistic, nightmarish dreams no mortiferous man should ever dream
With silence irrepressible, the mood inaccessible,
Whispering of lost love, ancient, abiding but lost
As I whispered this plea, “My Love”, hearing an echo “My Lenore!”-
But only this, and silence remained.

Following my feet back to my cottage hearth, my very soul on fire
I again was disturbed by an even louder tapping
With relief bestowed upon me I rushed to the window box
Once again peering to my blackened morning I set forth the riddle
To my heart be still and listen intently, upon my knees I ask,
Only the power of rushes in the wind

I then opened my window once more, brushing needles off the sill
With a statuesque gaze peering into my soul, perched a bird of midnights aura
A raven, a timeless figure, with burning eyes of brazen tinder
He stood firm without fear, waiting on my gullet to quicken
Perched upon a robust oak, a limb withered with time
Perched, but told of no sound

This midnight bird of fancy, laughed at my sad folly
He sat demonstratively staring my heart goodnight, poking humor at my wrath
“May you have a crest preened and a robust thirst!”
A shameful reminder of an ancient traveler’s trek
“Tell me of your flight, your fancy, your virtue”
Shrieks the Raven, “Nevermore”

This disturbing fowl, unends my shelter, taking away my love so true
No reason- no thought provoking storm, alas I see desperation
We cannot help but know, the plight of a human in revelation
Only to be adorned with a sardonic bird of prey
Beckoning to a ground swell, that sits in respite at my door
And only speaks the word “Nevermore!”

The raven, sitting on my limb alone with his solitude
A soul to be measured, sits with his sardonic wit, claiming my heart!
Not a sound again teathered, once more for my weathered existence
Till I only muttered, “my encountered souls have long since taken flight”
Only in this tomorrow, leave my side and let me die!”
The accused soul, leave me now!

Surprised at the solace torn apart by a reply so aptly driven
“Confused,” I say, “it’s countenance is simply irrepressible
Desperately lost in a broken dissent from a master of disaster
Only watched within a lonely spirit, his song so verile
To only see but a lonesome splendor, of which a kinship
Of the only thought kinship with a phrase of loss, ‘Never- Nevermore’.”

But the ebony bird shines his wings in the break of day,
I sat quietly for more of the same, a longing to see you at your perch
Then with a cast overwhelming touch, I brought myself to thinking
Pleasure among the pleasures, knowing this bird of prey, and his results
Not a sigh to be missed, with fortitude to steal the night
At his dying bed, he bids again “Nevermore”

Of whence I sit with thoughts pouring thereafter
To the bird, who’s glance makes a mortal man suffer
More oft to sit wondering, my mind beckoning a suffering heed!
Within the pillow of my conquest, I only wish to see her once again!
But still is my wanting, my choleric heart dispose of
With this I press to my bird of darkness only hearing “Nevermore”

I once again am puzzled, alone without my Lenore
Pulled partly in jest, upon the floor I lapse
“Wretched one,” I parry, “Has not your God sent you to me!”
Taking rest in my one true love, that of my darling “Lenore!”
“Death seeker,” I speak this, “why should you tear my heart from within?”
Speaks my Raven once more, “Nevermore”

“Ambassador of death!” I yield to thee, “you are but a tool of Satan’s hand!”
“Please leave me now, I cannot take again into this day your brood, your glance!”
Alone, without repose, I scream, “take your stare and go about your blessed curse!”
Before you go let be a lesson learned, one of significance with a heart missing
Without your message, be gone please, let me live in my lonely hovel
My Raven once again exclaiming, “Nervermore!”

O’ wise one who’s brought me to my knees
Go to God now, allow me my petty distraught being
Leave my soul to be buried, for the loss of my sweet Lenore
She never hurt one who loved her so, my oh my, my sweet Lenore
My lover and friend, my divine, my tender heart, my sweet Lenore!
Spoken again in refrain, “Nevermore!”

“A turmultous stance, who are you bird of Satan!”
“Go ahead of me a see if the Gods find solace in thee”
Take your torment, leave it with one who knows
Go away and know you are not welcome
“Remove your beak from my heart, and leave my cottage at once!”
Again sitting stallworth, speaking in only a whisper, “Nevermore!”

And my dear Raven, always my tormentor, still perched on the oak
On my doorstep, and into my very soul, sitting with darkness;
Eyes piercing my heart, without concern
My only light left illuminating your scowl
My very soul, set to be thrown to the ground
Shall be lifted- Nevermore!

A Sinner’s Thoughts!

A gift to be treasured was that firstborn reason
Born out of due season
Born for the purpose of apostate treason
Our holy grail written in Bloody flesh streaming

Asked of nothing he did
Yet received miseries joyful bid
Judah’s ploy to rid
And Peter’s last transgressing id

Who am I but chaff?
Drifting through this present past
Intoxicated with Spirit’s wrath
Beyond the properties of carnal perception’s path

Maybe I’m just as wretched as Thomas
With no compass to return to the Temple
Maybe I’m a forlornly Ghost
Sentenced to return to this charade as Host

Seemingly the grave is living
Attempting to placate the assembly’s sinning
Of course fiend-heartedly grinning
And bestowed no warmth, no passion living!

I yearn for that laughter
He was never recorded for Smiling
My permanent channel sounding
And I risk receiving only a dial tone!

abstract meanings pervade reasoning ability
what sense can be wagered on lost clarity
a mincing of words by forked toungs
holding pencils of erasure at bay
scribbling in ink to ensure the longevity
of messages written today

why not simple really, freestyle...

Rhythm
be it abstract, or solidified
A simple statement
To be drawn
To be felt
Style broadening; with mechanics
carrying a swift and daunting sword
knowing of the further in education
of the pen; say this twice "unstoppable"

Fortune without structure, the bug hit
Hard upon Rocks, "Freestyle"

With emotions rolling fast
speeding past
not taking a minute to relax

Finding a groove to spin
unmet passion but not just sin
turning absract rhythms on it's head
bouncing way upon this HIGH
I'm only left writing and knowing precisely why

To show the world of new perception
Not talking one off the shelf of New perception
Learning to write with unbridled passion
Not stopped, once forgotten

Tearing through my minds eye
I pull off freestyle with all it's GLEE
oh, ee oh, ee oh...
with my mix I'm sure you'll see
a different side of me..
one that spills with the might of it's maker
and lulls with the sight of one to fore sake her

pull together all of my verve
and let the me nothing left with astonishing nerve
I'm moving closer to my target
And am left with only with nights of scarlet

Just to bend your ear... Overlooking Terminal Island at dusk... standing on the bridge I would love to ask you about your life...

in loving friendship...

LA Nights

Running like a dog
I always parried
deflecting blows
rejecting flows
when I drove

LA streets at night
drivin' hack was me
but whack
my brothers in arms
all sort of sunder
crack head lover so sublime
to give respect to one whose truth
was qustioned for to stoop
I gave respect in spite of race
my brothers came running in my face
I loved them and upon embrace
knew they had my back for the chance
green boy from oregon knew
his survival depended on just a few

seen it all murder and death
King's 92 speaking of the rest
I lived in whole with my friends
never passing and living alone
daring my whole existance
I lost through resistance
know I hurt with one who died
even thought I tried

and they died when I could not save them!

I’ll try to catch up with the thread later with a pot of coffee some aspirin
and a dictionary, and after that I still wont be able to keep up

I’ll just drop this off for now

Sometimes I feel like I’m consciousness tryen to find its way through this maze
That is this mind pop up say high
follow me I know the way into this place where we all meet
were all are one, there’s only one infinity
do not worry even stars die only matters how bright they shine

I once was but a thought inside a brain
and then through verbal vibrations became a wave
in the atmosphere
maybe through a device or two until I reached your ear
now inside your mind I will reside until the day you die
you will now obey my command
you are a universe expand

Wow! Intense! That was a trip down nostalgic lane. I could see what was depicted therein.
You’ve done a great deal of traveling. And in your poetry, one can feel those various experiences that you have had with other cultures and mind-states. The “well runs deep,” deep indeed!



Lifesoldier! Your poem brought ideas back to focus.

“I once was but a thought inside a brain.”

I always think on that very thought every time someone states that "existence precedes essence”; which is actually the existentialists view. The only reason I do such, is because every thought carries with it an essence. Therefore, if I first existed in a thought, then I possessed an essence prior to my existence. But then, I always ask myself, what is the true definition for existence? It’s a never ending battle! Nevertheless, I truly enjoyed the read. Come back and share with us anytime you’d like. You are always welcomed.

Sorely!!!!! The Five Sense Sore!!!!!

I fain believe in this taunting love.
As if the mind has been engrafted with bewitching amour;
I embroil my heart in this polemic madness; thrashed heartfelt.
The pathology of this self-imposed still permeates elusively, benumbing what was once Logic.

My Dear Jehovah, bless me with a celestial benediction.
I need not mention this moving, and thus terrifying grief.
I errantly went astray to passion, permitting the eye’s lust to antipathetically fashion me sore.
She had become my harlotry; my inimitable iniquity, my probing lasciviousness.

I possess such antipathy for self at this retrospective moment in yesteryear’s present.
I search desperately for a conduit to heaven; maybe even Elijah’s chariots aflame.
Restore to me Jehovah!
Buff away my noetic dirt; my sordidly verboten indulgences!

These metaphysical energies, they have haunted me sorely.
And this woman’s sultry nearness enraptures me keenly.
GRANT ME CLEMENCY MY DEAR JEHOVAH!!! LEST I PERISH HARSHLY!!!
These trenchant waves have laden my thoughts sorely; cutting even unto Soul and Spirit sorely.

“O’ incessant vigilantly, my son; the confusion is on the prowl.”
What is this that wars within my members, bringing this wretched flesh to the submission of sin?
These afflictions have accomplished their burdensome ransoms.
Let me not be devoured Jehovah! Let me not become the condemned Specter;
Let me not exist as purgatory’s frequency.

Burning Desire ~ Intercession, I Ask Permission


No way to hold back these desires!
Can you help me friend, I've no way to not wander
I will walk one ton of miles plus five hundred
On broken glass, through fire and rain
crawling on my hands and knees
I will not rest until I grace her doorstep

It may take me a while to travel
"I will not rest till I'm found in her arms!"
Not for the taking, but giving freely of her love
Wanting me to be more of what I am not,
I have been foresaken, no blame upon her
Fear consumes her, she needs strength
"O' Jah! give me my hearts desire, PLEASE!"
I need not live another day without her
My losses are measured with a bucket brigade
Helping to put out the fires of lust but unable
Raging infernos inside me making me irrational
Lost in conscious thought, only living in ifs

I need a firm design in place to become again
the man that I can be, I sayeth, "I praise you, NOW!"
"You brought her to my eyes, to my heart, my soul burns!"

I quietly restore my mind, and ask in a whisper,
"May I adore the one before me now, may I have your blessing?"
"Please Jah, bestoe upon me the direction of your loving hand"
"Lead me, and my love to one true place of understanding"
"I ask in a truly humble heart, without false bravado"
"See my heart and fill me with your sweet silent voice"

Just a little abstract analogy

Right now I happen to be typen to ya from outer space
I’d like to show you exactly how it is I got this way
You gotta close eyes and try to visualize
That you’re an eagle flyen over top of the river winden

You look down and see tiger as you become the big cat
Look at that, looks like you found a rat to chase
Soon after that it’s you who become the prey
As you jump into a hole and just barely escape

You come out the other side into a clearing in the forest
And there’s this door, as you approach it, it slowly starts to open
As you gain focus on some stars and pass the Threshold
you become a constellation
Now when you look up at the stars at night
you can see me waven

While I still appreciate you,
Let's find love while we may.
Because I know I'll hate you,
When you are old and grey.
So say you love me here and now,
I'll make the most of that.
Say you love and trust me,
For I know you'll disgust me,
When you're old and getting fat.

An awful debility
A lesson utility
A loss of mobility
Is a strong possibility.

In all probability
I'll lose my virility
And you your fertility
And desirability.

And this liability
Of total sterility
Will lead to hostility
And a sense of ... futility.

So let's act with agility
While we still have facility
For we'll soon reach senility
And lose the ability....

Your teeth will start to go dear,
Your waist will start to spread.
In 20 years or so dear,
I'll wish that you were dead.
I'll never love you then at all,
The way I do today.
So please remember,
When I leave in December,
I told you so in May.

Wow! I just read each poem newly written; and I was moved by each one. Each is expressing a piece of their inner Psyche. I often wonder; what is the impetus of our mental motion that pushes us to compose? I envision angelic beings mentally delivering to us a channel, a stream of Truth.

Whatever it may be, I thank each person individually for composing here a piece of self.

Naive- feel the rhythm in this gal:


Caravan To See The Lamb
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

New fascination upon Mary’s face
Knowing she cannot reconsider abiding the Lord’s entrusted duty
Knowing she is chosen, to carry within her womb a child
One not for this world, within her mind a crystal objective is known

To carry with her daily a soul promised to make men Godly
One that will bare the weight of thousands of years of sin untold
One that will give grace freely without repose
To the chosen I say freely, “You are to be marveled!”

Please know that many will come
In a parade, a caravan, a pilgrimage
To see what you carry in your innermost being…

So I dove into her river to see if I could touch the bottom
Denied by the current its force is simply awesome
Thought I was a better swimmer like a boy thinks he’s a ninja
The waters pressure has killed before and almost certain to kill more

Home now and I’m still gasping challenge still is on my mind
Clearing all my senses trying to create a change of flow
Still think I have it in me plans set for the right time
The instincts keep failing me credibility’s out the door

River feeds two smaller streams current will shape them
Gonna have to dive back in can’t turn back on the mission
Train the mind with zen and rhymes and other swimmers
Wish me luck the water calls even though its winter
