In the end
none of this
will matter..
the doing
the undoing..
the scattered
energy
of our being..
just
a spec
of dust
in the cosmos.

Dust
It Seems
The end of reason
screams..
ruthless gain
reigns supreme;
nothing is
as it seems..
it seems..
Oh speak to me
of love
and gentle
dreams.

Resilience
Bend
and sway
through
the disquiet
of this day..
unassuming
and resilient..
close
to the
moment..
like a child
at play.

Knowing
Let love
grow,
empowered by
its rightful
rescue..
imbued
with a sense
of innocence
and
knowing..
thrown
and scattered.

Believed In
Forgiveness..
the experience
made manifest
within..
given
and received;
believed in..
love’s dominion
begins.

Silent and Still
I need
to be silent
and still;
fill my mind
with kindness..
reaching out
I touch all souls
with mine..
it’s my rhyme
and reason;
neon sign..
on the path
to peace.

Always The Same
Anger
consumes
as it violates
again
and again
always
the same..
remain
gentle without
strong within..
always
the same.

Avalanche
The grasping
and never lasting..
falling below;
knowing nothing
feeling small..
an avalanche
of living
smothering
and recovering
forgiving
all
standing tall.

Awake
I could hear
the universe
whispering
the truth;
calling
my name..
the walls
have fallen..
the game
has changed..
love remains.
