wild white horses on the beach i feel the freedom of the breeze i can trust my divinity, its all in me wild rose bushes aligning me i smell the flowers of the free i can love myself eternally, it’s all in me knitting with all the potent possibilities i weave and thread my dreams i can allow myself to breathe, it’s all in me sowing all of my plenty, pretty seeds rabbits foot, lucky as can be i can creating the means, it’s all in me

All in Me
forgive me for committing the sin of looking for you here, there, and everywhere. forgetting the cardinal truth that you’re the omnipresent one! to think i could think of you, the one who’s beyond all thoughts my trespass too. forgive me..... © 2022

9/23/21 Polarities Possessing the mind Stealing possibilities If I am This Then there is bound to be That A perfectionist Will find their enemy In one who makes mountains Out of molehills And therefore renders themselves Incapable A person bound to their suffering Suffers further When they see others in their joy A dislike of one thing Pulls toward it one Who likes that same thing Ātman Feeds on opposition To free oneself Starts from within Diving into the divine That which is limitless Freedom is here Connection Is always an option So long as one recognizes Their own mortal, mental positions And instead lends their mind To curiosity Here, Love triumphs And we all ascend.

Polarities
Tryin’ to figure this thing out Heart flying Straight up leaving behind This mind of mine Why are we moving And to where Why now Why am I so detached From the then and the now To be alone is desired A sense of inner peace And yet I couldn’t even tell you What that means Seeking reasons for beliefs Supreme beings to believe in me Some chains to bind So I can escape and say I’m free Clinging to the cleaning Of inner space Restless Endless torment When faced with rejection Of expectations Innocent sentiments Soon cemented Into views of how the earth Should be Move me, stream Fill my lungs if you must But I hope that I may be present So that I can open up Done with the dissociation Futile, now What once saved me as a child I’m alive I am here There is so much to be done Not to neglect portals to Being the Way and One

stairway to heaven (the real one)
If Success was Happiness Then achievers would be glad But look around and you will find That many of them are sad Of course, Achievement gives joy And excitement, oh boy! But when our need becomes our greed To misery, this will lead The whole world is chasing Success Everyone wants achievement Sometimes we win, sometimes we lose There is no Contentment Why do people want to succeed? Why is everyone in a race? The Truth is that we want to win So that there is a smile on our face But though we win, we are not glad We have money, why are we sad? Happiness is not money, the sages said It's sleeping soundly when you are in bed We hear of suicides in the homes of the rich If they were Happy, then why this glitch? Although they are achievers, this fact we know They are not Happy, their face has no glow If successful, but unhappy, what is the use? Winning or smiling, what would you choose? The purpose of Success is for us to be glad What is the use of winning, if it makes us sad? Happiness is something different, we learn Not just money that we earn and burn Happiness is built on a foundation of peace Then we are blissful like waves in the seas Look around at the people who are glad They live in the moment, they are never sad They don't swing from the future to the past They are the ones whose Happiness lasts Happiness has no price tag, know this my friend It's a state of mind where nothing can offend It's being able to smile, and able to laugh Not just trying to raise our Success graph We can't measure joy in dollar and pound Happy is he who peace has found Though we may fly the world around We may be miserable on the ground Success is not Happiness, this Truth we must know We may have everything, what's the use of this show? The truly successful one is he Who lives with smile, laughter, and glee If one is Happy, then one has achieved all One doesn't have to be rich and in fame be tall One can have little, but if content is he Then he can live joyously Achievement gives Happiness, this fact we know But with Fulfilment and Contentment, does Happiness grow One who is Happy, doesn't need to win He has Peace and Joy without committing sin Joy doesn't need a foundation of cash One doesn't have to be rich, to enjoy life's bash Happiness is a simple state of the mind It comes from being loving, it comes from being Kind Happiness is Success. It is achieving life's goal It is being Happy in the heart, Peaceful in the Soul True Happiness is eternal, not just a moment of joy It last's forever, it can’t be destroyed Success is a journey of valleys and peaks Life is a see-saw, there are laughs and squeaks Success, unlike Happiness, doesn't last for long But the truly Happy ones always sing a Happy song So, Success is not Happiness, Happiness is Success You may be an achiever, whose heart is not at rest But though not successful, if Happy you are Then you are an achiever, you are the very best

"Meditate" Tattoo my brain with infinity Cure shallowness bring about contentment cause we're all blameless in our small existence.   I truly believe meditation's not an end When, before, I thought it was the key to heavenly eternity I broke another misconception It's all you need for eternity No, just me Nothing without me, that's free A being being it. "Social Mara: Lord of False Appearances" Searching for past life memories effigies of more miserable days painted positively with the longing of their highlights and the possibilities we already threw away My present just hangs, suspended in contemplation for tip of the brain answers Need to reach the primitive stem Just live, now I think the way is already paved by these split second sparks through the cauliflower mush Instinct. "A Ceaseless Conquering of the Unconquerable: A Love for Becoming" Weird coincidental sayings and labels Think things, or some happenings come full circle Like a defense of solipsism a dream shared by the lucid This is my world and I only almost have control Stomach in Shambala shambles Can I face sobriety with a drunk childish high from the atman in my eyes?
