no more mind...

kali

make the man of shadow 

see where to go clearly

and forget the cares of the world 

that has no truth 

it is not real to be away..

it is a dream

and you are in the dream 

not apart 

take your child 

and seize this one to your breast 

for the heart to awaken 

in your love 

never to leave it roam about lost 

this has never been truly

but is an illusion 

a shadow of mind 

not haunting in truth 

just echoes of empty space 

mother 

you are putting blinders in place 

for those unsighted ones to come finally

in the way of saying "enough!"

i am ready now for you to take over 

oh pray, for i cannot take another step this way

oh so much heart ache 

and am filled up with it

mother 

i give back what i took as mine 

for it gave only pain and unrest

Kali
i give this mind to the heart
and give it up willingly
to walk in the light that i am
so free of suffering in truth
so in the way of life itself
so in the seas and earth and sky
and clear being
i give it up to the o ne
so that i can be freed of all that
was never mine

mother 

the earth bed 

the sky

the sun

the seas

the hills 

the mountains 

the clear rivers 

the open lane 

the cool wind 

the rains 

the blossoms 

the dying 

the living 

the in between

the perfection

the zero

Kali

the choice is yours...

i came to you as myself
this evening
in the still of your heart
that is the undying perfection

i came to call you to this
depth that is of such grace
to be by your side for awhile
as you ponder what to do
in this land of *other*
the choice my dear
is to go forward
or stay where you are accustomed
within the shadow land
so i will stand beside you
awhile as you peer into
this night of the unknown
but cannot bring you there
no
because one must venture
into this beauty alone

it is an adventure to come
to yourself and very magical
too --
but not like a magicians trick
or something that speaks of
smoke and mirrors --
it is like a dark knight of the soul
who haunts and taunts
but is truly a friend in nature
that has called you to yourself
but you have been too busy
with your world
and too afraid to look
but now you are at
a crossroads or maybe even a
precipice in which
there is a choice
to stay with what you know
or to come deeper inside
and see
what is in there that is true
and what is of another nature
and is to be cast aside

oh my
what a dream you will find
there when you look deeply
and oh how it has covered
the gem of truth that shines
so great and sturdy
so now i will stand here
awhile with you
my heart friend and be
with you as you gaze
in for a bit
do you want to go further?
the choice is yours --

keep your hand to the plow...

i couldn't find a better
way than this (path)
too many have come and
rode the tides to freedom
but have not stayed
on the right course
so many have fallen back
that is so very
much a shame
i loved those ones as
i do myself and hoped
for them to be true
but they have not found
the right time yet
to come

it is not the right thing
to come and go back
as the shadows try to come
back in so rapidly
i wish i could speak differently
of this
but i know because i have
been there
and sat in the shade of mind
only to be driven so
terribly in thought
that i was about to break
when the dark was so unleashed
that i could not see clear
then a light shone
that was not of the *me*
but it was truth
stepping in as Guru
and this love and compassion
melted the shadow like
a bad dream one
awoke from
and then i was shaken
back to sanity
like a tired near dead
old lady that just drank
an elixir
friends of the heart
and path
i am not lying
i am for sure true in my
writing and would
never lead you astray

be true on your road
and take the one that is fitting
to your heart
do not step on a path
that is the high cliffs
that are meant for the ones
walking the straight line
until you are ready
then keep going
and do not turn around
this is what is written
in the bible
keep your hand to the plow
dear wandering souls
or else the pillar of salt
is the next thing
and my dears no
this is not what you want

i now live as the o ne
so often in heart and mind
steady as the call of
the day in its brightness
i am so happy for those souls
that walk in light
and so wanting those that
are in the world
to lose the hold there
but all in its own time

dear wanderer
be well....

You have come

I wondered when you would come

the gates have always been open

and the fresh breeze flows without

interruption  

i have been waiting to see

when you 

my friend

would sing of life

and come into the beauty of yourself

this has been such a dream

and now you have come to live in the o ne

what is it that has held you away so long?

night has fallen so many times

and i have waited here under the lovely branches

that hang fruit so heavy

i have waited and watched for your steps

round the bend

but my dear it is now the time to laugh with you

and sing of the soul that is always here

you know it now

and i am so happy

Wake up

Are you sleeping?
are you dreaming?
the land of here and now
still sits as it always has
and your curtains are drawn
Is it that you don't love the light?
or that you want to fight alone
the demons that haunt you
in the dark

There is another way to live
In the depths of the soul
there is a door
that is open
and if you go to it
and step thru it
there will be a shaking up of your
world with its dreams
and shadows

But like the sturdy tree in the wind
what will blow away
will only be the little
things of mental clinging
that have crowded you in
what is left is the trunk
rooted to the earth
it is not going anywhere...
