City, city, bring me bright lights
city, city, bring me filled delights
oh wonders of the country may be fair
and to the fields I do repair
but city, city, bring me your nights

City, city, of a thousand roads
city, city, of a thousand modes
to you I must return
for desolation I must spurn
city, city, of a thousand abodes

*** Part II – Poetic lines in a verse ***
*** Love ***


“Blessed be the soul seeking God!
***
- Ticking a prayer sighing the incense –
***
Oh! How sinful I am; yet, God loves me too!..
***
Bleeding heart, asking soul: where’s God’s kingdom!?!..
***
God is Love; – my heart, now, rests in Silence.
***
Restless soul, seeking abode beneath olive tree…
***
Swept in the Ocean of Life, stirring heart sings –
***
Whole being, a harp, to caress my muse;
***
The dove with an olive branch flies away...”

*** Harmony ***


"
***
“A chord strums echo, a ripple utters God!..
***
Drilling sight, mind sinking nature oasis –
***
God’s arms enwraps soothing cradle of Love;
***
Secret choirs twisting tides, troubled heart rests…
***
Yielding sounds, nature breathes my being; –
***
Which, to equate life chords echoing core?..
***
In gentle waves, a hook withholds my stillness.
***
If Life gaze in a mirror, thine soul art free?!
***
Hermit’s prayer bends mountains in a chord.”

*** Tranquillity ***


"
***
“Soul orchestra dwells harmonious horizon…
***
Transcendent quill over the world’s futility: –
***
- Feathers with ladders * a dot the void fills –
***
Nature of things strikes my emptiness drilling
***
Among realms, there’s a heart pulsing peace. . .
***
Natural rhythms flow harmonious guzheng,
***
Under breathing clouds, a soul rejoice!..
***
Wise philomel singing: God is wonderful!
***
Breathtaking silence, uttering its own prayer.”

*** Freedom ***


"
***
“White lotus core blooming beams of knowledge.
***
Beloved waterfall nesting birds in silent meadows –
***
- One’s will - crossing bridge – horizon with ladders –
***
Breathing, slowly, I feel what nature of things is…
***
Cry of love chose hidden paths streaming the realms;
***
[Free will] – In a rift * everything spins, while thou art still.
***
Thy kingdom, my heart enwraps a dying rose;
***
(Epitaph) Oh, Lord Jesus, forgive Thy servant!.. -
***
Thine soul surrenders drops in the Ocean of Life…”

“Poetic murmur breaks; a heart rest, silent.
***
Soothing echo rhyme flow eternal rhythm –
***
Quiet eye deepens spiral’s key listening core.
***
Wet whisper steams what burns echo streams…
***
Breathtaking dot – a pulse, waving and breaking;
***
(Shush!..) To love: where thy nest, my heart, aligns?..
***
God’s kingdom, o, soul, is heaven’s bliss!..
***
Breathing core, opens more: path of lore, -
***
Stars drop sparkles, mirroring rippling oasis;”

Stormbound waves
encircling you
love's choreography
dwell in a borderland
vice and victory
fantasy parade
legions lost
to emotional turmoil
love haunts
love taunts
yet further into the night
we must all go

Wrapped from the cold
echoes in the streetscape
I stride beside you
for its assurance I need
despite the fortitude
these doorways all locked
and old bones
can't take much
anymore
but you smile
indifferent to my plight
and for that I salute you
Where did our days go?
majesty of youth
no fear in the cycle
of universal grinding
all you said was
breathe as I do
feel the hustle
for then the dark delivers
love in the margins

*** Part II – Poetic lines in a verse ***
*** Monarchy ***


"
***
Noble butterfly, flutter wings know to rule –
***
When tyrants rule upon themselves, the kingdoms being written;
***
Over the wrath of plebs, o, bards, beset a ruler!
***
Oh, poor beggar, how many kings, your throne defy!..
***
Hail to what surrounds in royal echoes such naked highness!
***
Old gods, stay hidden, new emperors rise to fall!.. –
***
When ruling themselves, all of sudden, kings became beggars.
***
Twisting cane, shrinking throne, bloody robe rise out a monarch.
***
Where infant’s blood, sealing peace – utters a shattered kingdom.
***

I take back from the mind of the insane I walk away ashamed I come to test the validity of the rest of life is this such a hike to the unknown I creep an moan to fall on sacred knives to let them see it was not part of my insanity it was just a killer twice come let’s go I take everything into the unknown I walk freely through open deserts I come clearly unto you unto you. I seek to find a place we’re there is no crime no blasphemy no evil that is to see I glance ahead in time today I’ve found my rhyme I’ve committed a crime for them to see let it be the end of my insanity. Will it come upon me open flesh wounds open problems to astonish no it was your promise that I’ll never die I fall back without a doubt I shout mortal tears are upon me I search through all this insanity mamed no caged a mind that wants to be free I am insanity I open all doors to each realm I sit still I wear my crown I don’t step back because I am not here. I am not here. I will go on through this misconception that I rule I don’t. It’s nature that is gods wish not that humans suffice. That humans acknowledge that they are responsible for the pit fall in evolution.
