Somewhere To Be Alone

 video

inside the mind is where to find
somewhere to be alone
where no one can enter anytime
and no one is on the phone

peaceful and calm, free from all harm
in the centre around which we spin
without alarm as if by a charm
in what is found deep within-

inside the mind is where to find
somewhere simply to be
to write a rhyme, to slip out of time
to hover blissfully

where no one can enter at anytime
where no one is on the phone -
inside the mind is where to find
somewhere to be alone..

No One's On the Phone

video

 inside our brains, inside our hearts
inside us everywhere
electric charges' nano darts
spark from here to there

hippityhop they never stop
bringing  life as we
sink or swim, rise to the top
while moving tidally

in a  flow we'll never know
unless we disappear
surrendering to the unseen glow
of all the life we're near

intertwining beyond mind in
consciousness that's shared
in moments blissful we are finding
a universe which cares

inside mind, the place to find
somewhere to be alone
where no one enters anytime
and no one's on the phone...

I See Mountains

 video

 I see mountains, I see rivers
I see the endless sea
I see forests who are givers
To you and too to me

all surrounding life's abounding
it's in the air I breathe
it's astounding that I'm found in
a state of mind that weaves

what's becoming into one in
a conscious tapestry
with the glory of the Sun in
everything I see

in the mountains here surrounding
in the endless sea
in the lifeforms here abounding
symbiotically

in the air that I am breathing,
in biomes inside me
in the tapestry I'm weaving
in this poetry

with the glory of the Sun in
each word and every rhyme
with the fun, becoming one in
the present time...

Foreboding

 video

 hurricanes of thoughts and fears
tornados in the mind
always something coming nears
it's not a place to find

serenity, nirvana, bliss,
or simple happiness
states of mind that we all miss
cy wanting more not less

imagining what is to come
visions with more pain
forgetting that we all are one
we are much the same

breathing in and out and in
rhythmically aligned
with the world that we are in
peace, a state of mind

serenity, nirvana, bliss
thoughts, a pleasing stream
it is always more than this
dark foreboding dream.

Plog 1

video

 all is harmonizing
we're all in a stream
where we're synchronizing
in a time machine

accelerating faster
than a flash, a blink
avoiding the disaster
of believing what we think

when not meditating
recalling we have been
in an elevating
conscious living dream

symbiotically engaging
the consciousness around
where 'All the world's a stage' in
wherever we are found

where all is resonating
even though unseen
when we're meditating
forgetting who we've been...

In Morning Golden

 video

on the edge of in between
precariously balanced
asleep, awake, while in a dream
what was and will be challenged

by what now manifests,
what's coming into being,
time's not moving as it rests
it seems before then fleeing

into the centre at the start
of the universe unfolding
with every beat of every heart
consciousness keeps molding

everything that we can sense
physically stimulating,
mind massaged no longer tense,
in now there is no waiting

with every beat of every heart
the universe unfolding
on the edge we're at the start
like sky in morning golden...

Looking Up

 video

 cumulus, nimbus, stratus clouds too
move through the air enriching sky's blue
forever changing as they drift by,
when watching the heavens above where I lie -

in every season, in day and too night
above in the sky a magnificent sight
encircles the planet embracing the world -
all is in motion swirling and twirled

often in colours engaging, sublime
inner reflections that tantalize mind
in early morning and before night
when Moon is a ghostly galleon sight

always the best show in town
is up in the sky and is easily found
gazing above to see what is there
is all that it takes to become aware

we're all breathing the same air
the water we drink goes everywhere
following forces we cannot see
I am in you and you are in me

forever changing as we drift by
while watching the heavens as we lie
cumulus, nimbus, stratus clouds too
move through the air enriching sky's blue...
