Paths II, ii
```
The differences appear
To dismember oneness,
And soon all worth is Me,
The love of our neighbor
Degenerates to greed
And hateful jealousy.

“Poetry is flowing today”
```
Poetry is flowing today;
Thoughts of John Keats
Not so far away—
Neither in his verse
Nor of his time,
But writing only to release
Others so they may find
A smile on their lips
And no fear in the mind.

Beyond
```
With strength of mind
And purpose,
One may 
Force the Seer
To close his eyes
In perplexing confusion,
Thusly freeing
The sixth sense
From becoming
Someone’s bondage,
God and guiding light.

Paths II, v
```
Hateful utterances
Express our bigotry;
As caught in the whirlwind
Thoughts of mass minds decay
We lose the direction
Of formerly trod ways.

The Owl
```
The owl has spoken
His final piece
As a token
Of his inner peace.

With ease flow his feelings
While clear is his fear
That the love he is giving
May not last the year.

Your dreams

When you—
Dream them.

Paths III

Entering His Heavenly Mansion
On Ascension’s lifted wings of Light
We learn of our newly appointed duty
In the ever eternal fight,
And manifest the Kingdom’s beauty
By sowing Man’s Divine Perfection
With Universal Mind, Will and Love,
So all may reap the Resurrection
To our Life’s Immortal plane above.

Paths I, vii

The cherished balance eludes us
   As the scales tip from right to left;
   Again we are disoriented,
   Vacillation leaving us bereft.
This chosen path of exodus
   From a life of material gain
      Is often hazardously steep;
      Methodically it must be tread
      To avoid the bottomless deep.
   With balance finally regained
We gaze at the Light around us,
   And succumbing to total strain
   Sleepily greet the warm falling rain.

The One
```
The dust and ashes
Of fear and freud
Have been laid to rest
With fame and fortune

From a common grave
The ashes of time
And dust of Being
Will assemble to Birth
The ONE
```
