Infinitsea

30/9/2010

0 Comments

 
Death's breathe rides the wave of life out to the endless infinitsea

Awaiting depths of creatures crawling through blue on fins and scales of silvershine

Pay no mind
Crafts coasting above the shallow
They not know the free flow thrall swimming and dancing just below the decks. 

They fear the waer, the mysterious cold calls can't hear the song of the waves through the thuderous storms of fear.

Do not try to swim the tide.
Just Ride Ride Ride

As the sweat breathe rolls out with the gall, the song, the sirens call of the moon

The eternal swim
No life raft
There it's not to be sane but a belief and a loss for those still aboard their ships who are not ready to exhale into the endless waters

Infinitsea is dark
Reflecting the heavens within

Depthrformiles

Where the wild things have always roamed

This is the sea where death doth bathe

This is the breathe that none can save

Breathe deep for life.

Forget Me Not

27/9/2010

Forget me not said the sparrow to the tree as it flapped its wings for the first time
The tree waved goodbye in a gentle sway, already missing the bird's sweet song

Forget me not said the tree as the lumberjack spilled its sap on the earth with practiced axe strokes
The lumberjack yelled a warning.  The trees in the forest all knew their time may soon come.
They shook in fear in the breeze.

Forget me not moaned the lumberjack as he laid in a bed built with his own two hands and a house made the same from trees he still remembered
His wife and children remember
They remember the songs of the baby birds
The whisper of the trees
The ringing sound of metal on wood
And the sound of tears for memories gone

Control Intentions

18/9/2010

Not above
   Not below
Immeshed and intersperced without and within

A constant reminder
   Need not apply
      Heart Reminds
          It is the supply

Body that's strong
Mind that's

SHARP

Out of our control,
   out of all sight lies the beyond which surrounds

Not the hughest nor the low
   A surrounding
   An essence that can not be described nor spoken of

To speak is to name
To name is to define
To define is to limit

Thus changing our perception of the very nature of creation

A sacred perception

No doubt spoken about with the best intentions
    Intentionality
    A dangerous game
Hard to play but impossible to avoid

No more able to be avoided than God.

Run Run Little One

Run run little one
   The day goes fast and then tis done
Danger lurks along with fun
   So run unto the setting sun

The sun that sets with colors fine
   Orange, red, violet at times
A little taste of the sublime
   But run right now, there is no time

For dangerous people seek to take
   The innoncence that only youth can make
They seek to bring about pain and woe
   You can't beat them yet, this you know

So run run little one
   Run fast and far till the day is

Leap

Leaping into the great unknown
   Beyond blankets of time that can no longer keep us warm
Be not afraid of losing yourself
   Tis only a miracle that your infinity ever assembled

Remain grateful as plateus of power dream up the world

Winds of magic bellow through the plains of reality agreed in a time before thought

A clear lense can focus
A clear mind can see
A fit body can walk to infinity without ever begining to remember to be
   tired

Running past to much to see
   The only option to see it all
       and take a leap

Not of blind faith, nor calculated risk,
     nor weathered experience nor just 
          a gift

Certainty is all that can carry one through the abyss

Only with true certainty of character impeccability can on be free to experience the awe of the whole

Totality is the whole
Not the myth of one side and two

The whole is infinite
And yet

Only ONE

The undeclared unknown

Leaping with the fortitude to sustain in the I with the face of eternity staring you back in the eyes like mirrors of creation!!

Only power can withstand such blows

To make such a leap requires years of training in the void that is

Leap confidently brave warrior!!
    Joyously revel in the challenge to every day create thyself on a plain of
    pain

Fear not the pain
    To deny it a losing battle
    To indulge it, a waking death

Leaping can show the infinity of pain and the limmitless nature of pleasure
The unrivaled beauty with the unbroken darkness

Us that do not exist can not waste time trying to untangle the web of indescribable least thou get caught in the snares of the beyond

Leap into the world beyond with a laugh and a dance and release what you have always had inside!

Allow your being to be a clueless baby, learning in small steps

Learn to walk with power
   To walk in truth

The great truth
   That ours is a state of illusion made real

In life we know this by pure feel

So many deny, disregard, disempower, or are so on guard
They cannot or will not see

The veil that covers so many's eyes
When the great truth teaches that we can reach the skies!!!

If we but allow ourselves

To leap.

    I love poetry.

    It can be whimsical or epic, unbearably long or just two memorable lines, mature and dark or light and childish.
