Go Mythic

12/30/09

Is this for everyone,

to enter alchemist realm

have veil become thin

between physical and spiritual,

where ancestors, Nature, confer,

send signs, messages through

that lead toward Destiny

if one is courageous,

can embrace soul journey,

their part to play

in epic human history,

especially at this time

as capitalist dream fades

and Aquarian Age begins

ushering in more cooperation

urgent to make changes

from developed evolutionary consciousness

within our own selves

by cultivating inner equanimity,

the essential 'First Peace'

able to access wisdom,

intuit appropriate right action

in any given situation,

being the Light Emissary

who sees miraculous expanse

of what's wanting birthed

which will reverberate exponentially

effecting past, present, future,

when we go mythic.

There's always beginning,

each day arrives

after nightly dissolution

where physical reality

blends with dream,

I can wonder

what's more real

when past, future,

usurp the present

through thought transfer,

always on edge

never quite grounded

living between worlds

of disintegrating truth

changing over time,

making me wonder

nature of illusion,

feelings, sight, sound,

unable to grasp,

but for moment,

extended if continuing

to choose sameness,

sticking with agreements

about social constructs,

prioritized important living,

our belief systems,

yet, transformation happens,

is inevitable evolution

I enter daily.

The Doing

12/28/09

Having ideas come easy,

those visions and dreams

of what could be

that excite the senses

stimulate thoughts of possibility

feeling potential well up

as if already accomplished,

where confidence is spoken

about what will happen

and people give accolades

when wanting such results

to be manifested, physically

spread all over world,

but uttering is cheap,

many people, Presidents, talk,

give quality lip service

with no real action,

so it's always been

polish leaves the apple

every time it's tossed

into air of prejudice,

landing bruised by doubt,

one's inability to cherish,

nurture, quietly aim toward

simplest work of completion,

becoming Godlike by creating

something out of nothing

despite thick, dense world

which challenges the doing.

The space between

life's big events

is discovery arena

where presence lives

in subtle gestures

and beautiful nuance

so often overlooked,

it's allowing for

extended lingering moments

as new perspective

finds inside lightness

encountering the feelings

which encourage understanding,

do not mistake

this with laziness,

procrastination and such,

more, it's percolation,

waiting for ingredients

that show direction

into richer world

of our creation,

never experienced, seen,

if headlong pursuit

keeps things whizzing

too fast, blurring

our life here,

not really lived,

remembered, until choosing

to take time.

Various options appear

due to feelings,

ideas, visions, dreams,

amount of energy,

or present mood,

whether big, small,

projects present themselves

such as chores,

daily care routines,

the weekly laundry,

plus cleaning house,

writing out bills,

often without inspiration

if we succumb

to societal belief

'Life is hard,

then you die.',

that it's drudgery

without much joy,

yet, if dissatisfied,

willing to experiment,

new ingredients transform

old thought patterns

making us adjust,

climb emotional ladder,

until coming across

fuel and spark

igniting inner fire

as the key.

Perceptions

11/7/09

What we find in life,

or how it's experienced daily,

depends on so many influences

like rest, diet, work, thoughts,

past traumas and joys remembered,

whether we can love ourselves,

greet one another with equanimity

no matter the world news,

what's happening near and far,

yet inner cultivation of consciousness

may have the greatest impact

when coming back to peace,

yourself as uniquely expressed soul

in this shared miraculous existence,

often conditions for revelation change,

some drink, or smoke pot,

others run, bike, use exercise

to engage new expanded sensibilities,

while yoga, meditation, also help,

travel can work amazing wonders,

a motorcycle ride, river rafting,

paddling a kayak in ocean,

any circumstance that startles us

from mundane, habitually patterned outlook,

as last night clearly demonstrated

watching sunset, surfers, from Wharf,

Olita's, witnessing seagulls and pelicans

circle below and above me,

opening perceptions around graceful living.

Familiar Grooves

It's a reoccurring pattern

dug deep in gray matter

maybe part of original clay

my earthly DNA genetics

that recognizes certain things,

places, women, even weather,

as a resonating attractor

with old response patterns

of the hunt when wanting

a relationship, travel, motorcycle,

or inspired to create, manifest

something new at home,

but it's in love arena

where my approaches pale

failing to bring desired results

when projections run wild

my mind caught in possibilities

trying to 'figure' best route,

and it's a pitiful example

coming up as inauthentic,

disingenuous, that is felt easily

by sensitive feminine nature,

while, with bravado I dove,

in past, to certain carnage,

lonely heart strewn in heap

the wreckage from confused action

seen by gawkers, passersby,

friends, family, who shake heads

wonder my insane familiar grooves.
