Like a cool breeze, that lifts an autumn leave from one place. Floats it down the stream of empty space. Gentle drops it in a different space. Nothing new was created. It was just rearranged.

Becoming Strangers
Slowly drifting away, a ship loose from its mooring. I see your face but I don’t recognise you. You are close but I don’t feel you.
Moment
When the moment comes, will you see me, know me? When the moment comes, will my soul rise within me? When the moment comes, will time bend in on itself? When this moment comes, will it reveal the me to myself? Words fail me and I become a child, speechless. My soul awakens and risesContinue reading “Moment”
I
How many countries must I leave How many religions must I abandon How many masks must I remove How many people must come and go How many times must the heart break Before my I is naked enough The sun always rises and sets The waves forever crashing on the seashore The galaxies speeding throughContinue reading “I”
The Beast
He had been running from the beast his entire life, yet was still caught by surprise when it dawned on him that it had already caught up to him. The bitter and endless coldness that spread through the marrow of his bones the sign that the beast had finally sunk it’s teeth deep into hisContinue reading “The Beast”
Prayer
I remember the mountains of Africa where I use to seek my God in prayer, my face to the ground and my knees on the sharp rocks. I swore I heard his voice in Jerusalem as I walked the streets of the old city, my heart open and my faith as big as the loveContinue reading “Prayer”

Reality
A cage without bars is still a cage A prison without a door still a prison. A lock with a key stays locked, when open eyes see but don’t perceive. A trap on a clear road remains a trap. A loosened rope remains bound tight. A maze perplexing even with a map with an openContinue reading “Reality”
See Me
There is a song, a melody my heart plays. If you can hear it, if you can comprehend it, then you will know me. There is a story, a fable my mind creates. If you can read it, if it speaks to your then you will recognise me. There is a poem, a rhyme thatContinue reading “See Me”
The River
Down the centre of the borderlands, in the no mans land between what we believe we want and what we truly desire, runs a river. It’s a river of revelation of purification and discernment, in which everything without a true anchor will be swept away into oblivion. Its waters softly whispers deception, bringing confusing, testingContinue reading “The River”
