  Dream Fragment 28

  I stood alone before the moon
  Waning in the sun wondering
  If my shadow would disappear
  And then pulled the hands of the clock
  From my pocket burying them
  Under the rocks without number
  While digging and planting this field

  The Thread of Life

  Tumbling into the previously impenetrable past,
  We grope for the tables and chairs and faces
  That for years have cluttered our darkened stage.
  The continuous repeating of remembered lines
  Finally begins to clear the distorting haze,
  And with the glaring footlights rise
  All remaining shadows quickly dissolve
  Into the emerging childhood scenes.

  Paths IA, iii

  Become one with God in silence
     And the Light will forever shine
     To illumine each darkened day
     With knowledge of our gifts divine.
  When immersed in His eternal presence
    The Life Immortal grows within,
        Opening formerly locked doors
        So as to view heaven’s stairway
        To existence forevermore.
     Love of God is the origin
  Which sparks the needed diligence
     To find centered in His doctrine
     The divine flame which is our twin.

  “The tree in the seed”

  The tree in the seed
  Knows its full maturity
  As our Cosmic Self
  
  Knows its Immortality
  In the zero of silence

  Amanita Cloud

  For centuries the Sacred Mushroom Ritual
  Has been a vehicle for reaching Eternity.
  We need not risk physical ingestion,
  And the possible effects of its deadly poison,
  If we symbolically see this visual keyhole
  As showing us the way to that other world
  Far beyond our day to day comprehension.

  “Nasturtiums slow dance”

  Nasturtiums slow dance
  In the soft summer breezes
  To Nature’s rhythms
  
  Pulsing through the Milky Way
  And stones on the garden path

  Nineteen Ninety One, May Day IV

                         IV
  The Storm’s unseen terror has finally abated,
  Yet chill winds still blow around the planet.
  Except prayers to a savior arriving in the clouds
  Or a welcome to beings from distant galaxies,
  Jingoism’s omnipresent message
  Offers little, if any, forum for earthly appeal,
  Condemning unbelievers in peace through strength,
  And peacekeeper weapons of mass destruction
  To peeking at the future from assigned ratholes.

  Children of the Sun XIV

  With the expected birth
  Into the solar family
  Of another child
  Siblings will again shift
  To drift further away
  From the place of their birth
  And into the comfort
  Of newly found orbits

  Remember Not to Forget

  The mountains have been moved.
  There are cracks in the walls
  Of personal and societal brick.
  As the flower Terra grows,
  Forming a perfect bud,
  We see in its emergence
  Living visions of a future
  Mankind has always known.
