Risveglio

Nel risveglio della mente,
trovo la pace che cercavo da sempre.

Ogni pensiero si dissolve nel vento,
ogni parola si perde nel silenzio.

Eppure, nel cuore,
c’è una verità
che non ha bisogno di essere detta.

Perché nel risveglio,
ci si incontra davvero,
nel profondo.

Awakening

In the awakening of the mind,
I find the peace I had always sought.

Every thought dissolves in the wind,
every word is lost in silence.

And yet, within the heart,
there is a truth
that needs no words to be spoken.

For in awakening,
we truly meet,
in the depths.

PACE

the rush of another to do,
your whisper in my ear to
slow down, please,
slow down.
everything's going at a hundred
miles per hour, never reach
expectation, time stops for no one.

Maybe if I try my very best,
I can change my pace; to
walk by your side, instead.

Sometimes it's easy to run forward but I'd rather take a leisurely stroll, even if it's not in my nature.

Granite Raptor

For everything fake -
Let me feel it one last time
Kismet sweet,
Villas bleak
Marble sticky -
Granite meat

Let me **** the vein of glitter streets
Surf the sadness,
Salt rose glass rush

Teddies haunted with softness beyond us
A ****** blue boldness that begged you to crop love -

Titan arum-sea saint
With your blood like rain,
Inhaling all the darkness
Freshly cut grass cane blade;

Remain in light, an amber blaze...
Curtain wall shatter all skies for our pleonectic pace

Feeding the Feed

Let me feed you, they say
Sat in a puddle of *****
Our teeth are barcodes
Our bones are meals

Let me heal you, they say
Then they take yet more
But Im not slowing down
(You can't when you're poor)

Let me show you self, they say
And pawn their own breath away
Enlightened in pure white light
Blue eyes of divine right

Let me educate you, they say
From the vacant room never left
Of fathers' touches never kept
And dog-eared pages of contempt

Let me, let me, let me
As if I am able to escape
Push me, push me, push me
As if its only me that shakes
Violently, violently, violently
In a regime ripe to break

Passing the Daze

Sleepy.....       I'm.... a
tired, type. The hype of life
reminder....     right?

Fired, if i don't wake....      on time.
But I.....   I don't deal...
                                                   with stress.....      and strife.

A broker in knives, for slicing ice.
It melts much faster
in little bites.

Lead me on this frightening
path of lightening
in a world that's getting faster
on a journey to disaster
without permission of the master
the plan will fracture.

We ourselves invite to rapture
and the laughter of the one thereafter
as we still ignore the lesson
on our mission of compression
turning days into seconds.

I relax, because I care
not because I care not.
The day is long and life is patient
Be the ball and chain of nations.

About: Learning to chill out in a hectic rat-race society and identify which things really matter to you and improve your life.

on the narrow breath between panels

I read my favourite graphic novel and I see
I need more breath between the panels
The images come too quickly
They combine with the dialogue to overwhelm me
and my ability to process, to ingest
the action and our conversation

Can you afford me more breathing space,
more margin in my morning kitchen shuffle,
can you allow me the time,
maybe as much as the day after the night before
to properly process without the stress
of having to readily express a miserable conjecture
of what I’m feeling, what I'm missing

Then I can signpost where I'm heading
I can pause and recap, provide an opening to map
where my story is going
and then perhaps I can take us with me.

This started as a rift off an online workshop by comic book artists and finished at a poet's retreat.

His Pace

Running on adrenaline
I think we should rest
Let's slow down a bit
I think it's for the best

We are rushing things
without thinking twice
Fearless but out of breath
please listen to my advice

Consistent Pace (Prosperity Poem 106)

Each day will blessings flow your way
From your sure and consistent pace
Like the story told of a speedy hare
And the tortoise who won the race

Your dreams need daily attention
Which draws them to your embrace
So trade your fitful stops and starts
For that steady, consistent pace

Yes, quick and powerful actions -
At times they may have their place
But more success is gained by far
From a stable consistent pace

So when you plan your daily life
Save some focused time and space
For the daily thoughts and actions
That keep your consistent pace

I've been putting some classic (old) parables and some new parables on my Mom's website for her. As I built the page about the tortoise and the hare, I thought how effective (and prosperous) we can be when we act with consistent pace.

We all have different personalities, and some lean toward a consistent pace naturally. My Dad and I can easily take a huge project and work a bit a day on it for 100 days. Some others in my family... don't naturally do that.
However, there is magic and power in a consistent pace!

Broken Clock

The clock on the wall is busted
I don't think I'll fix it
What causes the hours to fly?
Maybe our trespass to count it
The clock on the wall is slow
I don't think I'll speed it up
Why am I always so stressed?
It could be I am possessed
The clock on the wall has stopped
I don't think I'll start it
Why can't I not be still?
Perhaps that machinery is my ill

Is time an outdated concept?
