PoserPersona
Through these woods on red tint trails;
Mount Hood is where I go

Stresses regress on mountain's back;
steady streams glisten bliss

Little lizards crawl round rocks
Mother Nature their only clock

In summer's open fields of grass,
yellow flowers bloom in pacts

Colored birds tune melody
Forest whispers harmony

Private property impedes my journey.
Hey, this is my earth, too.


Birds, trees, and humming bees may swing as they desire
But God forbid my fellow man idle just one hour


Open roads open doors
to worlds I've never seen before

I enter.
You may shoot to my doom, but I intend to bloom

All this while I thought that by running away I was managing to escape from my problems
It is only now that I've finally realized that I can never run away from my problems no matter how much I try....
....For I myself am the biggest problem...
It was me from the very beginning
Since I opened my eyes and witnessed all the craziness around me
Since the time I learnt to walk and talk and run and jump
It was me all along
How could I not see it???
I always kept blaming x, y and z for my issues
Never did it occur to me...
...not even once that I was the devil in disguise....
Oh!!! What a fool I've been!!!

Thy honey's taste turned sweet to sour,
  though continuing to stick
Ne'er would a starving old black bear
  indulge itself one lick.

PoserPersona
Strands of golden beach sand,
Soft and radiant as first snow
Pools of glacier water,
Evoke internal flames not seen.

Beautiful, unknowing
Mirrors may lie, though not I
Heroine of our dreams,
Slay the somnolent slumber.

Winter's worry
Summer's laughter
Fall's turning
Spring's blossoms

I say it so, so you know me

From the iron red sea flows
an infinite forest of white roots and gray leaves

Unequivocally woven in response to
the senses of each unique being

Ahhh, if timeless beauty is what you seek,
let the transcendental levies bleed

For that which may be perceived internally,
will be embellished eternally

PoserPersona
Illustrious queen, set me free
from the chains of my desire

Though mere form, an eternal dream
relieved by bursts of white fire

A primordial odyssey
from ocean's novel progeny

Crawled out of Cambrian waters,
fish who yielded the first daughters

If I don't believe in Him
Can I still believe in you?
To fill my life with a watching eye
To protect my mom
and to hold grandma's heart when she feels alone
Can I pretend the circle of life
doesn't just roll along without intent
And that you spirit shines forever
I'm not sure that I believe its fair
and not sure it goes on past this end
but your words, your blood, your strength
lives on with us all
Rest in peace, Grandpa

Stripped off desires,
i am naked.
running through a forest of thoughts,
i am going wild.
newfound appreciation of life,
i am free.

stripped off emotions,
i am naked.
feeding of nature,
i am going wild.
a new perspective,my perspective,
i am free.

stripped off attachments,
i am naked.
so much to explore,
i am going wild.
no boundaries, no limitations,
i am free.

what a feeling it is !
a naked body, so light.
a wild mind, so right.
what a feeling it is,
to be naked, wild and free.
live light, live right

If God is a lense
Watching eternity spin
Would it spend a cent
To notice my blemishes?

If Sin is a debt
Building up interest
Could I make payments
And buy my way to heaven?

If Love is a gift
Shared by all of man
Would you fill the rift
With the warm blood of a lamb?

If Christ walked on Earth
And saw my sad words
Could he read the verse
Or, would the foreign letters blur?

When you blindly love someone,
there is no letting go;
You live life holding onto faith
while having shots of pain
trying to act sober

'Twas a time I deemed thee love;
  the echoes lacked contraire
Sea moon shadows dance across
  this isle of despair

Entwined flesh eyes doth ne'er perceive,
  outside the mortal's scope
No sole charter giveth passage
  through salty waves unknown

'Tis what I think to see thee there
  on pedestals of gold
Forevermore you place thyself
  on stalwart shores alone

Unfurl thy sails for distant lands;
  the lighthouse shines once more
Praying to gods that long lost ship
  will find its way to port.
