Living behind
the gates of no sight
my FATHER is.
Perhaps snapping away
with a spiritual camera- like eye.
as he knows I love and miss him.

Living behind
the gates of no sight
my AUNT is.
Perhaps sitting around a manifested table
laughing and enjoying the moment.

Living behind
the gates of no sight
my MOTHER is.
Perhaps feeling the ocean of love I send her
as I recall her mothering aspects.

Living behind
the gates of no sight
my HIGHER SELF is.
giving love and direction for me
who needs its guidance.
Inspired by IIion Grey a grand writer. Thank you

Absorbing dust and Golden heat,
living more openly than I do,
he shimmies to Billie Holiday

The year is not 1957, though
he lives in a San Francisco fog
longing to play the piano

The time in not 11:57pm, though
he orders a ***** martini & swims
in the fishbowl bay

Escaping to Telegraph Hill
to drink moonlight jazz & vermouth
he pretends to live

Way back when

How can you let go
When the person was never yours
But still lives in you
It's so sad

Dear Golden Gate Bridge,

    Can you give her back to me?
Split the water in two and I will be Moises
Angry and scared,
desperate and delusional
like Dolly was about Jolene

She fell in love with your edges and your deceiving depths
And you never saw right through her and thought that maybe she just wanted you to be the sloppy second for once. Rebound to a better life.

                                         Splash!

You are a ruthless lover but I'm starting to understand the fascination with that edge of yours.

                                          Breathe in. Breathe out.

Jolene, I need to be baptized in your love
And I will assure you that I can swim and you will pretend to care.

Moises will fly to a sure fall. Let him drown. He would have never made it to Noa's arc anyways.

Let me drown.

Through a colorful gate I step.
Gracefully prancing in light of sun.
The wind guides
as I plant my dreams.

Watering with my breath.
I glide in rhythmic pleasures
until seedlings are ready for harvest.

And with gratitude, I reap them
dancing with all my aspirations.

Desperate was the Hand,
To the Fist,
To the Door of Introspection,
To the Mind, to the Darkness.

Pounding, pounding away,
The broken bones,
To the dust of flesh.

A moment before forfeit,
The Great Gate collapses.
Bursting into a torrential tide of Madness,
This scornful swell swam deep into the Heart.
Its suffocating chill, mirroring the growing Dissent,
Resonating all of discord in a living Thought.

Hope's last stand sends deceit fleeing.
Rushing waves, shuttering away,
From the pathetic kindle.
Such a sad flicker, this bastion of salvation.

As with All Things, this too falls.
The Darkness, the Madness,
The Door to all Doors,
Consumes the Light.

Sometimes with my head on your chest 
Two beats in tune 
Scared of myself, my emotions
My wishes, my desires
I kept holding on to her hand
Don't know if its dumb luck or faith
But one day, well meet at Heaven's gate.

On evening of the eighth day of August
under full moon
energies launched dreams.

Open window provided a soft breeze
Night birds chirped on their way to nest.
Silken sheets gave comfort
catapulting me into dreamscape.


Perfect time for spirt to give its message.
I drifted in a infinity portal
A place where loves light shinned.

Leo’s lion stood at golden gate
ushering me gracefully
Suddenly with flash of moons light
alone I was not.

A lion golden and regal appeared at bedside.

He slowly walked around bed
as my eyes merged with his
as our eyes traveled
opening path of communication.

His words were strong and simple
elegant and wisdom filled.
It said, "
You have a magnanimous heart,
use it.
You are powerful and meant to
have abundance,
trust it.
You are now reactivated to recall
who you are,
know it.
You are now in the Leo Lion’s Gate for access to the knowledge,
the Golden Age of Consciousness, bath in it.
It is my gift to humanity, celebrate it."

When breath was taken to align with his words,
he vanished.
Leaving his roar that became mine, behind.
Leaving me to share his wisdom with the world.

8/8 is a very powerful day. There are new energies coming in and this energy constitutes the energy of the lion. Tap into your own lion qualities to move inside compassion and love

Meet me at the gate
To the place I now call home
Meet me at the gate
And I'll take you to my stone
To the place where I now rest
I'm right between the trees
Can you see me?
I sing from top'the knoll
Can you hear me?
My pillar is made of stone
And I'm buried far below
So when you call my name
Know I'm just a ghost.

Ingested eyes
           souls gateways unattainable  

feeding the feathers of oblivion.
