The lights dimmed above the sink
The soap bar dish shivered.

The bath pulsed in a glowing charge
through the energy spike delivered.

Under tubs electric ocean,
the radio sang itself to sleep.

Lingering about static bubbles,
laid a sunken lifeless heap.

Above the surface, smoke lifted
with the scent of boiled flesh.

Energetic sparks dance in large
charged on death, fried and fresh.

Abusive army of ego’s
Battle of Selfish Pride
Suppressing friendly fire,
where unlike minds collide

Arrogant soldiers fighting
for me, myself, and my
Self centered civil war
The killing fields of I

Submitting to none, in your
conceited combat campaign
Pretending to be perfect
Really, you’re full of pain

Selfish tears descend inside,
so you slice your pulsing vein
You conclude your lonely life
Slouching over, self slain

Ping!

You are now reading these words,
You are aware of this very moment.
Now experience each moment after this one with the same awareness
Now look at everything’s unique yet equal beauty.
Take notice to the things that you may have been accustomed to before,
the grass, the leaves blowing on the tree just 5 feet away from you.
feel the winds breath on your face
see the leaves trembling,

Go outside,
Stop, Relax.
look, and breathe
with the sun,
the clouds,
the moon,
the stars,
breathe, aware of your breath
feel the soil below your feet
You are the wind
You are the moment

Ping!

How much time do you spend in the restroom each day, month, year, in your entire life?
More then you probably realize. Everyone does it. It is natural.
Our bodies need to release the pollution inside.
When we use the restroom, It’s our private time, our quiet time.
It is in those moments that many of us are aware of ourselves and the very moment itself more then any other part of the day.
Cleansing our bodies, releasing the contaminants…

Pushing, squeezing, releasing, Plop!
It’s almost an enlightening moment, if not completely.
Our bodies feel lighter ready to receive the world again. Our minds even feel better!

Why do our minds feel better?
Well, we’ve just meditated, without even realizing it.
It’s our everyday meditation.

Our mind needs this same attention as our bodies.
When is that last time you released the pollution from your mind?
Do you take the trash out everyday, every hour, every moment?
Our minds need to be cleansed like our bodies, in order to receive the world unfiltered..

Yes, Poo is part of our lives. A continuous cycle of toil, soil, and cleansing.

If you try to think outside the box,
you are stepping into another.

There is no inside,
or outside,
nor box.

I color a lot,
Finger painting the trees
in seasonal shades
blended by breeze

I brush the waters,
with bristles blue
and coat the sky
in a airy hue

I roll the land
in lively green.
I sprinkle the flowers
in rich velveteen

One must stand up for what one believes in,
because only then can one trip over its delusion
and hit ones head on the truth.

Do we really have a choice, can we really choose our path, are we truly in control? We’d like to think so, but I wonder. Or are we just reactions to the previous actions before us? Are we not just the results of experiences with our environments, shaped and molded?

We like to think we have control of our feelings and passions, but where did they come from? Were they too, not engrained into us by our participation with the world around us? This is what makes us all connected, this butterfly effect, we are all parts of one whole circle of movement.

Our minds, feelings, desires, thoughts, do we really have control? or are they too the outcome of the income we’ve received? We can’t handle the thought of believing we don’t have control, but watch how I make you react to my words I’ve written here. Is it a reaction, or an uninfluenced choice?

Lunar lantern.
burning bright
Romancing rooftops,
seducing light

Moonbeam mirrors,
bending rays,
twisting prisms
on halos blaze

Midnight’s minx,
nocturnal sun of night
brings days dusk
on morrows kite

Kissing crescent,
A lucent escort
A twilight satellite
with dream support

Dedicated to my friend Keiko. Happy 40th Birthday!

As a chandelier
of snowflakes melt
by the radiance of the sun.
Your kindling heart
rendered us one.

It seems like just yesterday
Unexpectedly, you came
Treating us to your smile
On friendships flame

As seasons breath does embrace,
You’re kindness does enthrall.
You received us on nestled hugs,
warmer than the colors of fall.

You’ve touched our hearts
with your selfless compassion
You’ve brightened our lives
through your gentle fashion

You nurture your family,
You make things right,
You try your best
So the kids sleep tight

As perfectly paired as we can
We would like to extend our humble hand
For today, you’ve touched twenty twice
Still you’re lovelier then ever, refined in grand

As your friends you should know
We appreciate all you are and what you do
You fill a hollow place in our souls
A place that could only be filled by you.
