Thoughtknots of Worry

thoughtknots of worry

stiff tight breath

tense jaw

hard staring eyes

we broadcast intentions

but thoughtknots of worry

tie up the cord of attention

and our desires

keep circling back 

to

thoughtknots of worry

thoughtknots of worry

probed

untangles

this from that

now from then

here from there

smooth brow

dropping how

being now

Love Speaks

i am love speaking

anything i say

i lose

for i am the process 

of becoming

clothed in the language of the

world

.

.

Love?

Love?

although

it often shines in the known

it's origin is unknown

the most noble of all quests

the questioning of love

ah!

ah!

ah!

infinite question!

which love am i?

that of the flame for the moth

or the moth for the flame?

that last-love unrequited-held fast by a window of pain-

is just desire unfulfilled

though we call it love

in our mistaken longing

like the flame whose very essence

transforms all it kisses

accepting liquid sun

shall i be

for love is me

and i burn

for thee

.

Red Awake

opening...like a tight rosebud

unfurling with gentle naturalness

slow abandon

without impatience

without hesitation

but red awake

savouring every second towards certain oblivion

contemplating the mystery

called you

laying down all weapons on the threshold of us

to enter naked into fiery embrace

and be transformed

from carbon flesh

to diamond light

refracted

on temple walls
.
