Far Away

Far away the children play
In a world shrouded in innocence.
Let them play—
And learn to deal with life.

Candlelight (For Aldous Huxley)

Its flame is a unifying force,
Illuminating the once dark,
Giving dimension to technopomorphic entities,
Bringing light and undulating shadows
To once bleak walls.

It opens your eyes for you see,
It is your heart and soul,
For you feel and love
In your mind’s trance.
All known senses are keen
And the unknown seem within grasp.

Dream Fragment 11

Between blanket and moon
Exhausted stars vibrate
On this excited flesh
Burning over passion
Fulfilled and expectant
Sensing an angel’s touch
From digits descending
Through heavens reflection

A Reminder

While watching for signs that confirm
The birthing process has begun
Those who chose to return again
For personal transformation
Soon remember their commitment
To not only be a witness
During the coming transition
But also to be of assistance
To any and all on the Way
Out of the dark   Into the Light

In the Shaman’s Breath
```
                 I
O Shaman Shaman
With cold penetrating breath
Having been pushed to the edge
Will you reveal a chilling death?

“Help is coming”
```
Help is coming—
It is in your mind
If you stop your games
And find the time.

And if you look
You still can see
Your non-existence
Must cease to be.

Venus

After many centuries in abeyance
The winds of Venus are blowing
To again wreak havoc in our lives.

Red, yellow and blue planetary visions
Kaleidoscopically change in minutes,
Sending cracks through our emotional core
And chilling the superficial warmth
Of all shallow rooted relationships.

May I Say We

There is but little to say—
     The cup from which I drink
     And is me
  	Is emptying. . .
     The last drops evaporate
     While the remaining residue
     Awaits cleansing.

Truth
```
Look in the mirror
It will not lie.
Answer the question—
Look yourself
Square in the eye.

Look again,
What do you see?
Just a façade—
Not your identity.
