Fluctuations
IrieSide Nov 2023
Waves of bliss
and rain
we get met with
remembrance
of all the same

feelings,
like the wind
they permeate
the fabric
of all
we know

glimpse at the serenity
the time drops
of infinite
we've found a place
far from where
the angels reside

stillness in essence
on meaning in word,
the most powerful
capsule
of true nature

delicate soundwaves
of permanence
all that remains
is all that goes

to fight is to lose
and to surrender,
is to live

Animals
IrieSide Jan 2024
There's simplicity
in the animal
a precious essence
of purity

overly complicated
minds of
a billion
neurons
we, the evolved
obscure the
harmony
not only
externally
but within

fundamental joy
and innocence
we've fallen away
from

remember the sacred,
the child-like

keep it with you,
this remembrance
of the truest feeling

Artful Unlockings
IrieSide Mar 2024
What would it look like,
if you asked yourself
what it is
that you truly
desire

a contemplative unlocking
of your further
understanding
alignment with
the spirit
that exists
inside

to seek the higher, and leave
the mundane,
to dream larger
than anyone
has

attain your goals
in an artful way,
you are yourself
and your unique
gifts,
will carry you
up
rise.

Janis
IrieSide Nov 2024
We fly away
as simple dust
in an eternal
spell

crafted realities
in all different forms
we've danced through the times
and weathered the chapters

find this rhythm
some simple truth,
you've seen the end
and I am there

a connection beyond the temporal
some spiritual
remembrance
of the deafened
winds

you've called through the dark,
breaking of the dawn,
a connection
eternal,
you I join
in the midst of
ten thousand suns

expansion beyond measure
we've taken this plunge
and I've found the resolve
to remember you,
and bring you with,
as we
fly

Listen
IrieSide Mar 2024
Pursue the voice,
a guiding factor
in all that is
your life

listen closely,
to this sacred
whisper,
the one who knows,
you the
deepest

a nudge towards reality,
the peakest version

you know you're not where you need to be,
so listen closely

a dose of courage,
a gentle release
and eloquent
surrender

let what causes your suffering
go
and understand that all you need
is a breath away

move forward for yourself,
and for your family

stand in your power,
the Tao of stillness

Seed
IrieSide Feb 2024
Following through
majestics
in winter
we found the
masculine
was a
provider

the giver of all creation
a generating force
behind all that
is matter

find this understanding
some glimpse of insight
a foundational grasp
at a higher
truth

for in the masculine
is the giver,
provider,
and source of
energy

combust as a turbine
this inner absorption
of ten
thousand
suns

Tree of Life
IrieSide Apr 2024
Make what is known,
the answer to the
inevitable

decide upon the two,
platforms
of decadent
and majestic
flow

detach from the concrete
of a thousand burdens

open your heart,
reclaim the force
of life,
take it back
with all you've
got

climb and claw
as a desperate
wounded
animal
from the pit
that wishes
to pull you
in

take back the essence,
a sacred golden light
of infinite and eternal
peace

glow and ingest
this fruit

Inverse
IrieSide Jul 2024
The darkness comes around,
a seemingly endless cave
will come to light

persevere even
through the coldest
nights
and find what exists
at the other end
of it

Persist, even in the midst
of tremendous pressure,
when the end of the road
is out of sight

hang on, even when depleted,
and find that life's greatest
surprises arise
when you're just about
to
give up
arise.

Wisdom
IrieSide Mar 2023
Persistent delving
into the mystery

an everpresent dose,
of ecstasy
this taste
and recognition
of hidden
meaning

reality,
the recognition
and awakening

the presence and stillness
of all that
Is

find your ground
and witness this mystery
in the present
and everlasting
moment

Awaken,
awaken,

to this meaningless
place
where laws seem to
hold it
together
yet the laws
are of the same
essence

unveil some energy
this uncovering
of vibration

Unification through dreaming,

Beautiful Rebellious
IrieSide Feb 2021
Cast ingredients of
silent awakening
into a seed
of conscious energy

emerge from ocean depths
of deep blue
churning energy
into redwood stature

unite with light and the frequency  
that shatters,
disintegrates
any opposition

flow freely though life
cancel your subscription
to collective thoughts,
free yourself
from poisonous energy
and seek life
pure, energy, channeling, growth, warmth, freedom, power, limitless, rising, soaring.

A Feeling
IrieSide Nov 2023
She never let go
of that feeling,
a sacred
in-tune'ness
with the
inner-child

a saint, or guru
a refusal to
surrender

a beacon of light
she reminds
all those who
cross her

stronger than the gods,
and more present
than a monk

the core spiritual
ground
that may have been
forgotten

Energy encapsulated

for as it were
the condensed

of a higher

frequency,

that of all creation
and the entities

regard this rhythm,
a magical flow

within space,
an unknown limit

Enter the void,
and refresh from
outside of it,
escape the dark
grasp
of the one
who holds you
down

visions of birds
in colors
of elementary
parachute
spectrum

time and all its
perceived
variables
evaporate
into man-made
memory

a resurrection  
and revival
of nature's
ancient
beauty

delicate reminders
that feel as if
our world
had ended,

delicate,
is nature's
resurgence
and violent
the death
of an ego

cross playing melodies  
of midnight flare
and moonlight peace
visions of infinity
exist in a millisecond
sweet notes.

Jacob
IrieSide Nov 2022
A logical takedown
presented and countered
a mystical gest
and strategic retreat

I squared up with God,
and he was the same

Donned the artillery,
and organized forces
armed as Khan
with the world's finest

I squared up with God,
and he was the same

Targeted his pawns,
the weaker ones
and sniped them
though they grew stronger

I squared up with God,
and he was the same

Disintegrated logic
evaporated power
and fury
replaced by humbleness

I squared up with God,
and he was the same

A breath of defeat,
and a simple recognition
of who it is I'd been wrestling

I squared up with God,
and he was the same

Reckless Love
IrieSide Mar 2023
It's not to ignore,
to pretend
nor blind
oneself

Love is,
something reckless
a delicate feather
a quietly
burning ember

an ember
that stands against the wind
and only becomes
brighter

Evil is here,
and always present
though it's our duty
to love

to love is to live,
and it can be difficult
though persist on
because
it's the best
you can
do

Respect for Poetry
IrieSide Dec 2022
Upon the outer rims
of human communication
away from the mundane,
the easily accessible

minds that feel and think,
souls that reveal

adventurers of spirit,
they who venture far
with absolute vulnerability
and exposure

It's in bliss,
in deeper meaning
a lonely place
far out in the ocean

though like Columbus,
the poet brings it back

the farther she goes,
the more obscure
the meaning

there's no material reward
in this seeking
so why must they go?

revealing a thing,
beyond human communication
a deeper calling
and higher honor,
not honor amongst men
but of creation

accessing places,
and sharing them with others
through our only medium
that is poetry

Desperately Collecting
IrieSide Nov 2023
A reach into transcendence,
a remembrance
of the mystical

some place
from long ago
that resonates
with the purest
fabric
of all that is

a trickling down,
and simplifying
of all that matters
and all that will
become

find this melody a delicate dance
of uncertainty
a gentle flow
of all the
amazing

find this flow,
the replicable code
that transmutes
structure

a deep dive into
depths
of oblivion
those in which
that give rise
to order

Perplexity
IrieSide Nov 2024
whimsical patterns,
of vortex aura
colors in the river
of mystic reds,
follow this order,
of a thousand drums
like the iron
in a mountain
calling you
home

time flows by
as an intricate
trance,
we've found the rhythm
an ancient
dance

through the wormhole
of painted cities
and rock
of molten lava

Fullness
IrieSide May 2023
You forgot the core meaning
the deeper truth
in why we do
what we do

A vital ingredient,
the foundation of
life
to develop and grow
into our
fullest potential

like the redwood tree,
and the poppy
the huckleberry bushes
and the bobcat

why aren't you on track?

sitting around hoping,
dreaming and sinning

cease the day takes on
a different meaning
as in each day,
your opportunity
for growth exists

wake up!

Actualize the life you desire,
make your wisdom true
grow as a redwood
and reach the sky

A tale of a foe,
and the one
of pure light

Befriended by a bond,
one more universal
than the last

Enlivening energy,  
a blessing for all
a sacred capsule
one of all

take this bliss,
this energy
of combustion

require it as
life force
and drink it in
as a sweet

In the End...

For what is it
that came before,
a word
spoken truer
than a thousand

Where did it arise
a mystical simplicity
that evades
modern thought

a delving into the real
places of purity
and sense

He asked what the meaning
of life is
and she answered...

Love is all that matters,
Love is all that matters
frequency, a note

To make sense of the void
components of flux
atomic counterparts
to chaos and structure

invite behind
the intertwined
realities of an ocean
and forest

opened up to further reality
a shifting of frequencies
attuned to new
and holier
places

towards order,
or a ripping apart
of all that is
dissipation of a universe
into a flat and empty
canvas

invoke an era,
the enlightened  refinement
and demanding of
resonance

focus, remember and cultivate
don't forget your mission,
to keep your soul alive
and not dead

Original Mind, Take 2
IrieSide Mar 2023
Have you forgotten
from where you came?
Do you mock
the once sacred?

The original form,
the holiest vibration
and wholeness
of mind

so familiar
and so loving
it leaves
no room for confusion

vibrations, chemicals
radio waves
and frequencies
all attempt to pull us
from the divine
state

though those who glimpse,
in whichever medium
the certainty of
absolute truth

no intellectual guessings
or maps or scripture
it's a present reality
of one form

glimpse the hints
of galactic speakings
and chase them
with all
your might

Astray
IrieSide Sep 2023
Target set in motion,
a distant objective
of pure meaning

a mission,
an endeavor
of which completion
is vital

follow not those temptations,
the lustful draw
although they be sweet
their destination is flawed

emptiness,
ah, the vacancy
a spiritual vacuum
of temporary highs
then silence

follow it not,
their fragrant hands
of saffron and lavender
not even a little
for their flowers
will quickly
perish

go towards love,
towards God,
as he is Love

forget not your identity
and your mission
only the strong will continue
and the strong
are very
few

Wage battle within,

defeated an intellect,
a web of neurotic

in an infinite

to relinquish this burden,
one in a cloud
and gray storms
of random
electricity

This Mara,
some illusionary
world that
they all
perceive

Surrender this mind
and see reality,
remove the lens
of understanding

hit with a present
and wholesome
place,
distracted as we
once were
from this default
where all is one
and makes
perfect
sense
arise
