jagged cliffs jut down into a gully occupied by a roaring river alabaster crests of foam form from the friction of flowing water against mossy rocks scattered along its riverbed in reverence I stand a mote by comparison as the crimson breaks across the sky

I sit under blood-orange skies A bordello bodhisattva With eyes shut, body frozen beads shifting back and forth gently chanting devotions to you until my feet cramp up and my mind catches flame

Bordello Bodhisattva
Sunlit ridges embrace the eager traveler playful shadows dance and duck down a bottomless ocean road birds connect heaven with earth flaming wings burn to ash koi swim in fluorescent skies I stand above, a wanderer in your eye

A cold mountain poem, abstracted
Some day your rolling obsidian waves will fertilize the ****** shores of my spirit but for now i sit with dead dog eyes turned upward                and opened wide Searching for eternity in the bursting plumage of your midnight lotus

Obsidian
junk torrents of suffering pollute dream pools and reek of putrefaction dead fingers dance down trails of deviant memories Life’s spectral scream                ‘I am, but why????’ fills the firmament frail needs fragmented desires mutilated faith plastic fears Television static from an infernal midnight The shells of eternity        Penetrating,              Leaving, blind, bound and broken                      the children of midday sun

I’m a god I’m a man I’m nothing I’m everything I’m only, only the soul I’m sick I’m sick and my disease cannot be cured by any modern medicine only the soul I’m asleep I’m asleep and no amount of amphetamine can keep me awake only the soul only the silver tongued songs of the soul sink me down into the depths of eternity And fulfill me in my dissolution only the soul only the infinite unfettered understanding of the soul brings me back to you only the soul

Only the Soul
I deny this multiplicity of being And I invoke the infinite for I AM ——————————   Call me the soul seeker, the mystic, the mage I am Brahman, I am creation I am becoming, I am manifest I am death I am nothing   I am all I strive ever towards death So I can flow back into life
