The Poet

The poet is one who sees
what others have yet to believe.
An instrument of truth
to fill all the wells of youth.

The poet can truly reveal
what to others is yet concealed
His awareness of what is real
helps sealed eyes unveil.

The poet is one who takes time
to open up the mind
and let the word be spoken
through him from the Divine.

The poet is simply a vessel
A messenger of sorts
who's learned how to surrender
to mysteries sweet retorts.

When your heart is filled with roses
and your mind is so serene
it's as if you've found some magic
for everything you dream.
Things appear without no effort
they just land right at your feet
When your heart is filled with roses
then your life becomes complete.

But don't take it all for granted
for this power is so strong
Choose your thoughts carefully
or your life could go all wrong.
Keep your mind on the high things
Don't succumb to the earth
Keep you heart filled with roses
and your life will have new birth.

Idolatry

Forms of Fear
Giclee Print








                                                                          
 Anythink we fear
we make into an idol.
Whether it be our mirror
or someone else's bridle.
If we're letting them push our buttons
we'can bet this is the case
we've got some fear inside us
it's just given us a taste.

If we fear we'll lose our job
or our home or our money
or we fear we're getting old
and we might just lose our honey
then we'd better listen up
wisdom has some advice for you
stop letting things and people
control your every move.

Don't make them into gods
and let them pull your strings
for your giving them false power
your jumping through their rings.

Only bow down to God
he is the only one
who has the only power
and then you will be done
with worshipping false gods
and acting like a fool
It's better you should learn this
then be treated like a stool.

The Genius Within


Female Head (La Scapigliata), c.1508


Art Print


Beneath the thorns and thistles
lies buried but alive
A child like no other
that is filled with such surprise.


Brightness is its colors
Creation is its task
Gold now changed from umber
right through the looking glass.

Better you should wait
to find this wonder kid.
No sooner or no better
shall all your days be lived.
