Alphabet Parade

Amber arguments ask answers
Before blue bereaving berets
Can change certain colored candles
Dripping down diners delivering
Exotic erotic earthly eggrolls
For foreign film fanatics
Growing gangrenous garden grapes
Heavenly helping homemakers
Identify icy islands (more…)

Children of the Sun VII
```
Spinning and wobbling
Through long days and nights
Mother Earth shudders
As her passengers
Travel the rutted roads
Of emerging thought

For Nani

Don’t postpone living
   Until another day,
For even darkness of night
   Can’t keep the dawn away.

To Steve Moore

One cannot be held
For his lack of consistency.
We must be free thinkers—
Always progressing.
And if at any point
We feel we know
The absolute Truth for everything,
We must
And have an obligation to
Write it down—
    And jump from a bridge,
    For our worth is done.

Paths I, viii

Awakening to the morning sun
   We accompany the birds and sing
   Our thankfulness for light of day
   And render this our offering. . .
Humble gifts of selfless action
   Toward a world in harmony.
      While seeking love and brotherhood
      Along the dimly lighted way
      We cast aside evil for good
   Finding actual Reality.
The quest is made with devotion
   For the future Humanity
   To evolve its true Identity.

Children of the Sun IV
```
The solar family
Then welcomed Mercury
Forcing the relocation
Of brothers and sisters
To the former orbits
Of their older siblings

Communication
```
There were those we could not
	Communicate with then.
There are those that still
	Cannot be reached,
Yet some with which
	We are together
For their knowledge
That Communication transcends death.

“Loons softly paddling”
```
Loons softly paddling
Under a mostly full moon
Begin mimicking

The boisterous blathering
Of the inebriated

Paths IA, v

The veils of Truth quickly unfold
   When the pure core of faith within
   Is freed from the smothering walls
   That have kept our Real Self hidden.
Absorbed with Truth’s Light, our foothold
   Presently strengthens us this day
      For any temptations ahead
      That could precipitate a fall
      From the path of awareness we tread.
   With the ascent well underway
The occulted knowledge is told
   To all those immersed in Love’s ray
   To continue their Divine Way.
