Bushfire 

Bushfire 

Bushfire 1

Bushfire 1

Bushfire

A landscape

With the charred remains

Of burnt death

Left lingering

The smell

Of dirt and tree

Still smouldering

The savagery

Of a single spark

To magnify the flame

And spread across the plain

To leave burning pains.

Black and brown

Apocalyptic display.

To leave

The dry taste of parched mouth

Parched tree

The tops of trees still white

As flames rode to the heights

The width and depth of inferno spree

Leaves a deferring history

For all the eyes to see.

Om Tat Sat

Ma, Ma, MA 

Your blessings are so plenty

The muse of mind just empty

But consciousness

Is cosmic grace

To shower those with faith

Your love is felt

To ego melt

To know the truth

of human race

You operate in all

In most you are asleep

Your children love you deep

Awaken those who seek

To know their souls

Are pure gold. 

Age

Age scares those who fear

Their body’s shifting gears

A wrinkle, sag, 

A pinch, a bag

Aging is a drag

The youth they moan, 

Are so young, 

Their bodies untouched by age

But soon the shift

And beauty turns to rage

How could this be?

My history

Written on my face

This vehicle a disgrace

Don’t hold on so tight

This string of limbs

Will take you through this life

But worry not, 

This dish will turn to rot

As youth is soon forgot

But trees change leaves

as Autumn falls

As hair turns to grey

Seasonal dismay

Trust all is okay

And don’t place treasures

Laid in vain

And just breathe today

Farmer

What is this nonsense

What is this drama

The bliss of the world

Is the bliss of a farmer

I’ll grow fruit

To feed the starving

I’ll pray for rain

Don’t let these seeds

Die in Vain

A cloud appears

A trickle falls

A cry is sung

The plants are young

To grow up tall

To reach the sky

Touch the clouds

Way up high

Children

No loving animal could curse

Why have our words become profane

Our bodies turned to lumps

Our cosmetics made us vain

All children are complete

Soon to be disguised

Don’t beauty model children

to scrutinous eyes

Let them run through fields

and feed birds on the ground

And let their educators be wise

no child can suffer lies

Save Yourself

Some dwell

in the depths

of love

Smother like 

an ocean

Some calcify 

like rocks

Smothered in a hypnotised potion

You are your own

Saviour

Save yourself

From this illusionary

Self Image Directionary

unknowing tiny

tainted yuck

Awaken

You are that

and all

Relationship Litmus Test

All of this talking is getting nowhere

Why drain our word goop

Unsolved mysteries of Us

This Lila

Radha and Krishna

Lets solve this uncertainty

A litmus test

An embrace to reveal

The fake from the real

Hesitation

or

Suffocation

An eclipse of the Sun

The moon squares

And all answers

are questioned

and answered

Death

Death does not hurt those 

That know

Death does not scare those

That know

I know ,

Do you?

What can die

has died to me, 

I hope it, 

will die

to you

Peace Poem

Lets not hurt people with our bodies

Lets not hurt people with our words

Lets not hurt people with our hearts

Sounds like the solution to most of the worlds problems and suffering.

Forget yourself

Forget yourself

let your body go

Surrender to the voidness

Noiseless empty ahem

hamsa

a prayer of silence

then

dance with your hips

Don’t complain about your troubles

Don’t close yourself to whimper

Stretch out to hug the air

Make whatever noises you feel like

Vibrate Cosmic Joy

Smile to your cheeks scream

You are not solid matter

Out of Body sky hugging angelic

Return to sip tea from fancy china

The clouds are figments of 

Water Dances

A cosmic lila

You are that

Sage

This eye knows inspiration

Ecstatic Beatific Vision of Ah

The Burning brush

hum dum

One eyed image

of dancing Sage

Singing RAM

Blow your conch shell

The painting dances

Close your eyes

And see anew

cataclysmic chillums

Long bearded beaded limbs

ash coverings

I don’t want to work all day

Let me sit by this river

And feel anew

Reduce your bliss

Therapist Lecturer asks questions

Why don’t you have problems?

What about your parents and their flaws?

ah, I forgive them for any misgivings

, they did and do their best, 

What about your love life?

She asks me-

ah, I say, yes I have known love and became it

and no partner can love me

till they love them-self

Where is your bodily pain?

ah, what grace, this body 

is a beautiful vehicle

You’ll make a shit therapist she says

You need to suffer more

Reduce your bliss

Evil Witchy Eye

A Saint know Divine Love

Dwells in all

The Light

The sun and moon

We are that

This heart knows compassion

fore Deviled Ego gloom

Don’t identify with those thoughts

They just silly waves

This tongue cannot Lie

We need Therapists

Because there are those

Who have questions

Neutral Reflective Recievers

Open heart knowers

Allow answerable knowings

Ease your pain

There is still goodness

You are still whole

The bank may own your house

But you still own your soul!

I can’t breathe in the city

I cant breathe in the city

The cars with innumerable drivers

Pumping petrol gas toxic farts

In air conditioned autos

Bought from Bank loan

To never be repaid till death

Driving to doom gloom

Window curtain, polystyrene coffee cup

Fluro light, dim dim diminution

Small talk, small heart

Corporate merger pressed suit

Business card, firm handshake

High Stakes business meeting 

To discuss whipping policies.

We’ll make a Million!

A Million Chinese Children scream

With tormented anticipation

Whip Whip

Where is the business man hug?

Never was and never will be-

We run this country

Power hungry, Money thirsty

Never Satisfied till sweet bonus

Retirement plan relaxation

Ah, where did I leave my briefcase?

I don’t want to live in a city-

the forest talks to me

birds screech beautiful language

Of love, animals prowl for hunt

We need the weak to know the strong

Donald Trump lets out a whimper

My heart is cold!

Fetch me a scotch and cola.

We need the greedy few,

Cancer is commodified and dreamt up

by Pharmaceutical Monsanto Pipe Dream blowout!

We’ll make millions!

We need a government of pure children

to monitor the adults of horrid 

screech speech dirty picture vice.

What will our Grandchildren think?

We need virtue huggers

the trees talk with the language of the wind,

We’ve blocked our ears to the song of the earth.

Concrete roads, skyscraper phallic symbols.

I worked hard for this penthouse.

Wall Street bankers receive Satanic blow jobs

Save yourself!

Dont dwell in morbid monetary gloom

Your feet know the language of the dirt

When were you naked and felt no shame?

Why does your mind control you?

Babies know the truth

Soon forgetting their own Divine Love

To be School in person training

Cog Cry Cry Maintenence.

This boy has ADD

Lets feed him pills till he sleeps,

I dont feel like sitting, 

I want to play on trees

Sing to girls and draw

Pictures with fingers of Sun and Moon.

No love for unborn abortions

What’s the purpose?

John and Yoko kiss under blankets

Bang Bang

All beautiful revolutionaries shot by gunmen

Screeching Sinister Manchurian Candidates

For Presidential, Parliamentary, Prohibitionary Parties.

Lets drink turpentine

Homeless Bums on intergalactic

missionary angelic wino knowledge

I want to sleep under the stars

And sip in cosmic Air

Goop Goop

Only the heart knows truth

The mind too putrified to listen to 

And absorb tender love.

Why don’t our Parliamentary documents

Start with I love you

And end with a group hug?

Forget your Dreaming Wishes

Download a terabyte of pornography

This monitor will be my lover

Too afraid to say I love you.
