We are bred to be slaves but what keeps us in chains?
There must be something that allows the deranged
The key that locks our flowing lion's mane.
How we ought to say we are ashamed
That in America we talk of freedom
When most are economic slaves;
You're not incorrect to say this.
But what is keeping you enslaved?
Unplug for a while.
Sit in stillness if you will it.
The answers will come to you,
If you ask, and you feel it.
Inspired by the poem "Free Doom in America" by Brianne Broughton

Do not feel obligated to buy.
Do not feel obligated to spend.
Your love is not a dollar value.
You may think money is the means,
But Love is the means,
And Unity the end.

I believe that is one of my most common dilemmas
To embrace power; nay tis weakness.
Power is mine* but to flaunt it for no reason but its expression?
What's the lesson? What am I getting?
More separation, more illusion.
Power only breeds confusion.
When it isn't used for fusion.

So quit your focus of "losin'."
Time creates this horrid illusion
Of those above and those below,
But guess where we all go?
Back into the same whole.
Forgive them, for they act
But do not know.
Power is not mine. Power comes from the divine. All those seeking power, are in my mind misaligned.

Love leads to unity
Of course.
The great attractor to the source.
A tour de force
Unity,
Oh but of course.

I longed to understand for so long
And now I do.
At least, I know where I'm going to.
Away from separate thoughts of separate action
And toward a place that's combined, less fraction.
Not fragments, one whole;
A piece of a puzzle perhaps
But a picture perfect piece at that.

All around we see the signs
Leading us back to timeless time.
Know your goal and the battle's over
You realize your whole life has been the closure.

Male and female they meet as one
You are reborn as a pheonix from the sun,
Lies and deceit no longer shading.
The knowledge that you are the divine Son is waiting.

This girl's now in heaven
She has chosen a god among the brethren.
Tonight flexing
But only for her.
He keeps his talents secret
But some truths cannot be hidden.
He could father her children
But he's a man on a mission.
No longer missing the point
Helping others is his joint,
He needs no love
For he has enough.
What he plans to do
Is throw away plans and such.
Live spontaneously
Invent creatively.
She sees this
And she's curious.
But she's also nervous.
Funny how cute she is
She's sort of like a little kid
But much more filled in.
I won't let her win,
Because it's not what she wants.
She wants to flaunt,
And I want separation to stop.
I want to lead the truth to the lost.
I want to crumble my desires
And leave what was forgot.
Who can help me do this?
The world is sure to produce one.
Is it her?
Maybe not.
But I know who is.
The question is, am I ready?
No.
Patience
Each fearless action
One step in her direction.
To the girl I love. The love may come from inside me, but it is she that does remind me, of how to be a fearless kindred spirit of the earth.

I see a poem, it's clever yes
But I am displeased with the way it ends.
A man wished his life away.

I'm used to stories that go hip-hip-hooray
And this man wished his life away.
Why take tomorrow for today?

It makes no sense, I cannot say
That I would ever advocate such
Incredibly dangerous play.

This life is to be lived only right now
It's the cat's meow
The sound of love.

AHA
I'm attached to this life.
Still it causes me strife.

I have found much bliss
But still I know this
This life is not all that exists.

The endless Universe expands
And I am just a man
Caught inbetween here and...

The awesome land
Where fields of godly poppies bloom
Expanding into lotuses soon

The cows there talk
And the women
Keep me glued to Earth.

How do I reach escape velocity?
How do I become a star?
How do I, I, answer me my guiding Self.

Let go of it all.
Even the desire to go far
Or to go no where at all.

Let go of thought
Let go of feeling
Let go of wishful believing.

Simply experience
Life for the first time
Through unblinded mind.

It is here you will find
Past the reaches of time
An eternity always inside you.

Stay for a while
Meet Jesus and Sarah
You will soon, I hope that doesn't scare'ya.

I have demons
But I love them too
In infinity
All is your crew
