Have we always been human
and universal Brahman?
I killed 14 people.
Frying that up,
do I lose my humanity?
Back to the recent times.
Are people just badder than before?
What can we say about humanity?
You know I’m countin’ sheep.
We drag clothes wear.
This is not our first costume.
Where do we come from?
Do we come from ugly,
or do we come from good?
Do we come from the chaos down under,
spawns of hell that evolved to light?
We’ve been in the engines of the universe for a long time.
Are we emerging,
or was this a soul’s fall
into matter’s plight,
great heavens we wore
and then lost it all
in a sudden decision?
Are we universal existence
lost in individual chains
goin’ through trapdoors all the time?
How does our unity play?
How deep does our unity go?
Do we evolve together or separately?
You think the protozoa created us
scientific doctor,
and we emerged to man,
no soul in the machine,
no universal existence beforehand,
no Brahman with his gun.
The fish in the sea
are our ancestors on high.
We dream of being human again
you idiot,
where life meets the universe
on every frustrate world.
Is this all there is pond?
I can speak from my crash course in reality,
and we have scales of being
that rip us off
and brighten our days
and sometimes hold nothin’ with us
in the great majority of cases.
There’s the earthling man,
the universe revolves around this?
I have more fields to show
the origin of the universe wears.
I’ve poked my head out of the sky
and seen more than I can show.
You don’t know what it means to look beyond
and carry the glow of the universe
like it’s your backyard.
I’m a small man in Earth shoes
bustin’ at the seams with immensity,
and I can give you a ride home?
I ride these poems too,
and I’m a bucket in the sand
joinin’ reality with you.
We have more roles to play,
don’t you see?
And even existence is not all we are,
but let’s get down to Earth, shall we?
We are not the demon’s room.
We do not come from hell.
Escape it is our price—
a real punishment
you don’t need to worry about
all existence long.
And we were not once Gods,
and now we are men and women,
but of Godhead we did wore.
We come from beyond the universe
to inhabit these fields of clay.
We are existence before existence
in the planetary field ride.
We are burning suns each and every one,
to use the symbol that ignites the universe.
We come from on high.
We are principle actors in a principle game
that has stars for robes.
I just spoke the alcoholic’s din bin,
the wayward president his lair,
the child molester in bed with a child,
and the tax collector at your door.
I can get muddy these
or just be an ordinary house mum
or field husband
or kid in school
dreamin’ of what will become of me.
Lift up your eyes sweetheart.
There is more to come.
There’s the Diamond in the room,
and all your lives lead to that
as in the making of a star,
the crash and founding of a universe,
and we can be there kids.
We can be there
in great lone moments
of the direction at noon.
We can see the sky,
have great Earth thoughts
that make us feel God inside
and hurry this along folks.
Yah hear me kids?

The Gravities of Thin Earth
This poem has been published by Edge of Humanity Magazine: https://edgeofhumanity.com/2024/11/11/the-gravities-of-thin-earth/, and it’s been reblogged on The Skeptic’s Kaddish https://skepticskaddish.com/2025/01/05/reblog-the-gravities-of-thin-earth-by-donny-lee-duke/
I’m on the edge of time.
I stand here and sing.
I’m not about the braggart of time.
I hold my voices down.
I’m all the way down
where you know me
invisible.
I did not carry this to my car.
I banished it.
I operated on you right where it hurt.
I hit you in your social glasses.
I tried to be free.
For all the noise I made a scarlet letter came down
and banished me,
but it’s not there
where I pet my dogs
and clean my house
and cook for my best friend caring for him.
I greet people like they’re the node of the day.
I want them to know they are big in my eyes,
just to help them ease the day
to a better feeling for them.
I hold knowledge in my hand,
but I cannot shake their hand with it.
It’s an alien spaceship,
fairies in the wood.
It’s who they are beyond time,
and it is what I can see ails them.
I turn the page
and spew this out on a page to you,
dear reader,
where audience is as big a mystery as God.
Do you hear me?
I see where the world’s going and how it ends,
edging universes towards yah
how the impossibilities of the one fulfill the other.
Look at our goat today,
but look at our supernal skies.
I’ve painted myself wood
of a lone seer in time.
Silly me I bark too,
and I cry for myself
in moments of abandoned self-love.
I hold in my hand
the wrong sort of type,
the wrong font for you to see reason,
because it is way out your door.
Can you gauge me?
I’m in your toilet bowl.
I’m in your lunch pail,
and I’m around your cookery at night.
I get in bed with your children,
and I’m in the love of your dogs.
I take your glasses off to see society,
and I break you down to see your soul.
I’m a view of the vision of God,
and I’m this little man next door.
Hear me climb to the skies
a poem rider,
a poet mile,
and I’ll get you one day,
to get you to say hello world it’s me,
and I love this poem.
Don’t you see?
This poem also was declined by the private Facebook group Auroville International, and neither their admin nor anyone else from their organization will yet speak to me.
In Sudden Splendor Ridin’ Rainbows
Upholder of consciousness,
can I call you a name?
You just got laid off,
and you’ll get laid off again,
and there’s nothin’ to get ready for tomorrow.
You’re not a big man on campus yet.
You’re an embarrassing little thing,
and no one will hear you sing.
This is not standin’ in the air.
This is not wide enough silly in the air.
You’ve got tall trees growin’,
and you’ve reached the limit of your room.
Things get bigger.
They envelope in consciousness.
Wow I believed you this time.
I thought somethin’ was gonna happen.
I don’t even worry about the fish,
the fallout from this.
Nobody understands my shores.
Take ‘im away Bob.
The irony in all this,
and I have the light that shines on Earth.
Foiled again
at the book nodes.
Where’s my superman,
my help you with it?
I’m not just a fly on a coffee table.
I’ve actually seen what I saw.
Answer your question:
your art and poetry put out,
look what’s happened.
Nobody wants to see you.
They’re all put out,
and they’re hungry
from guess room again.
How can you say such things you measly little piece of paper?
And we shut you down.
You are not making us mediocre;
we are.
Now let’s ride to the end of this chapter.
You won’t get it,
and I will stand by your work.
You’ve got a major 2 o’clock comin’.
It’s in your show/window now.
[two above words heard spoken simultaneously]
Don’t sit just there read somethin’.
He hadn’t looked around.
He was not just a horse in time
courting sincerity.
He grafted you upon the tree of life
where you mattered and held count.
One,
they don’t know
you play ball with God and life and time,
and second,
they don’t know there’s more than what they’ve got.
This played with you,
and it didn’t mean anything
a thing you did,
and you were not big in that boy’s eyes
as you saw him lookin’ at yah.
You were not important to him,
as you saw him glow.
This bothered yah
and really made you think.
Listen to her,
listen to that boy in pain.
You alleviate it and he knows it,
and he can’t wake up to himself yet.
That’ll come soon enough.
Oh wonderful thing
hide in Their character,
hide on Their tongue.
To discover the hidden reasons of the Gods. [vision with the line of my own hand writing this in cursive on a sheet of paper]
To come down on student terms
and find out why They tick.
Why are They a decade ago,
never where man is right now?
They don’t know people like we do,
and They can’t gauge human life
in our exact location.
They are tall and kind,
but They propose to us things we can’t do.
They do not understand the human state.
They punish us for our condition,
and there’s a discrepancy between time and fate
that no amount of mercy can absolve.
We are lone here,
surrounded by Gods.
They know our every thought and deed,
climb your mind
like it’s Their jukebox,
but they don’t know how to understand you in the ways of sin.
They say no.
They don’t heal.
They do not integrate the mountain with the sea.
They meet each other and collide.
They are on our backs all the time
to ever showcase new lore,
to be an instrument for Them,
but they cannot reach us with the love we need
when we need it,
and they will let us go down
doing Their work.
They will take from us our most beloved
just to test us.
They will treat us like human souls not like breathing men.
They can’t be trusted.
They will always put Their work first.
In the quarries of the Gods
we labor under the breath of death,
and we don’t get out of it.
We don’t even see it.
We can’t know it’s there,
all the labor for the God,
least we separate our life from our sanity.
You can’t take a God’s force
bearin’ down on you,
a God’s thoughts.
They are too immortality for us.
They take on airs we cannot breathe.
They give us one commandment:
worship Them in time,
letting Them be the light of your life.
You cannot go astray from Them.
They will hound you in life’s deeps,
and you cannot stand against a God.
You can only pray.
Why am I telling you this?
The liberation from the Gods is our aim
in how we count human.
We don’t need Their scaffold
that stops us in midair,
that bullies us in time.
We don’t burn Their scaffold down.
We understand how inadequate it is.
We accept Their help
but go beyond it.
We go to the back of the plan,
what started all this universe and show,
a whole other order of being
testing limits for itself
where no limits are,
its growth by us
into the unimaginable of its see.
We are bringing this order down now
in the great upheaval of the Gods.
Can you fathom this change?
It’s a whole new way of doing things
that has harmony as its base
for righting wrong
and oneness as its lookout
for all it sees.
It does not shy away from one.
It incorporates all
into its grand plan.
It is the substance of itself
it’s planting into the universe.
It knows its great self by itself,
and it knows itself as all,
is not some cosmic God looking down
on the riddle of creation.
This way of doing things,
this Supermind,
knows by identity
and never strays from that.
It’s a Truth Consciousness.
It’s a vast Truth Consciousness,
the exact truth consciousness
ridin’ everything that is
behind its base.
It does not lie,
knows not error.
This is what we’re bringin’ down.
This is what we are.
It will change the world.
It’s what we need to see today.
It’s comin’.
It’s here,
and that’s the master plan.
It’s the truth of the universe
understandin’ time.
Look at it in the hours,
and you are in transformation,
God’s glow.
I show this to you now
with my head half in it.
I’m movin’ forward now
towards a completeness of my see,
towards supramental change
I see in my Lake,
the figure of Silent Mind
flagging me its approach.
I stumble and fall and can’t keep up,
and it’s an everyday pick me up,
but I can see it HD.
So I sing my songs
early morning vision brings,
so I can look out now
on what needs to be done.
You’re in my field today.
Hello,
are you there?
Auroville,
are you there?
The epicenter
of spiritual change,
modern life Auroville,
it can’t see itself.
It’s bigger than the sky no.
It grapples with human problems.
It grows its children
to grow nature in her room,
to be the normal round of human being.
It has high ideals
that are not in the hands of the city
in daily worth.
Impossible to describe,
the mounting towards a change in consciousness
that’s Auroville’s aim.
Human unity
will not field show.
Where is the city goin’?
Can you see ordinary
where Auroville meets its road?
No amount of spiritual-mongering can put it there,
the spiritual consciousness.
The gap between Auroville and her spiritual aims
throws Auroville out the window
as a city of spiritual change.
It’s a city of proud belief,
yoga tags,
conferences,
spiritual workshops,
sound gardens,
the green munchies.
These move the city along
a false bravado.
No spiritual revolution
seizes its day.
Can somebody tell me what we’re doin’
and why’s not the change?
We’re in plans with yesterday,
not the new planet
in the making now.
I ring this to you now.
Can you ring with me
and not vote me out?
What’s the plan?
It’s not the issues that divide us today.
Are you gonna help?
The drawback
for spiritual change
to say nothing.
We substance
where we change.
We tell you
in the manner befitting our service.
We tell you spiritual change,
how it’s happening
to us,
when we can tell it without spillin’ it,
the purpose of art and poetry
when you’re undergoing spiritual change.
You talk about it
the inner voice,
unprompted
by your decision making process.
You don’t let out a word,
otherwise.
Now it dawns on your community.
Got so many minions,
so black,
speakin’ in the voice of your word.
This is not a mere dictation.
It is a battle of the spiritual word.
Great variety sees that,
honed in
occasions.
We ride versatility to its source.
Okay I choir now.
Who inspires me but not the Gods?
The runner up
open to Supermind.
To see this distinction’s life and death
for the city.
Crucial for the city
to go beyond the Gods,
the strength of Overmind.
I explain to you now.
I explain to you how.
Lemmie guess,
you’re starlight?
The advent of Supermind
where Overmind opens to it,
you know this source,
the Mother and Sri Aurobindo,
their hills,
a few
that give us their glad tidings of wide birth.
Here we establish things,
put them in order.
On top of that
I show you a weapon master,
the rays of the Sun.
Insulated against it,
the Auroville that makes its bed,
that Auroville that goes international.
I have this title goin’ international,
The Writing on the Wall
Dummy’s Paradise.
You don’t know you’re Belushi’d out
a poet in Auroville
on comic stops.
It’s behavioral 9,
and it’s comin’ soon
to where you can see it
in Auroville’s front page.
It doesn’t suck they way they’re doin’ it either.
This latest poem is his Red Cross,
a fix it paper.
You know how it ends.
They’ve made their decision.
Just throw it out but keep the paper.
You too much for them,
and they Riviera the day.
Donny this looks terrible.
Thank you.
Finish the job.
I want a divine crossword puzzle.
You’ve got branches on it.
You’ve got the cookies stuff.
It’s delicious.
What do I do with the title?
Tell God to show up
a whole little ice cream.
We get our pieces together.
Larry Seidlitz,
empathy? identity?
Ah here,
declined.
Do you know what spirituality is?
To feel right at the zombies zone.
Donny draws the neach of us.
Speak a following a fluid law
and love from your mistakes.
It’s Auroville’s paper we need in Auroville’s hands,
true points of the consciousness of God.
Round house to an extraordinary boat on the sea,
we can lift the consciousness of God up to new heights
and stay there.
Can you count Auroville’s aim here,
her mission in words?
You climbed to the top of her mission with children.
I know;
it’s that background girl.
Nithisha not there.
He’s missing from action.
He reads his own music
a sad story,
and I’m mentionin’ firecrackers,
indo in human hearts.
How is the school?
You’re gonna help us out
then admire how beautiful it is.
This is his nanny,
Earthen Pull.
Now we met each other in consciousness.
I’m about the boy’s height,
and I’ve got a poem to show yah,
where we live,
talkin’ about consciousness one night
sharin’ pizza.
Open the door.
Watch how that decline button does things.
You miss the table with that.
You miss everything.
Can we call you Auroville International,
giver of gifts,
provider of boons?
You will delete me for this,
if I don’t hurry up.
I would like to stairway your mind.
Why is pretentious the first word that comes to mind?
How do you talk about facts
you know?
Hurry,
you gotta see this.
I have,
saw it with my own eyes
in just a seconds’ grab
up out the top of my head
to that nice familiar form
you know Yourself
perpetratin’ all these lives
without involvement in them,
like remains untouched
by the whole show.
Anyway I was up there.
Let’s go.
I am at the
period in this poem you hear me,
like really bold perfume
that talks about the important stuff.
Meanwhile on the ground I have reactions
and do my duties.
I don’t react half as much
as I used to.
I’m gettin’ round that.
Calmness is a commodity
that comes in long waves,
and then it goes out again.
I’m waitin’ for my boy to come home
so’s I can see it.
He’s safe and sound,
and that removes the ants
on my consciousness floor.
Children come first
in the scheme of things,
and I’m holdin’ mine
to safety.
Bear with me here.
You don’t know the half of it.
Okay now start your poem.
Can you leave me alone?
Come here mountain climber.
Okay do it,
behind the scenes you weren’t lookin’ for in her gala.
Where you goin’?
The party’s just gettin’ started.
Patience man patience.
You’re not gonna trip over wires.
Alright put your feet on.
We’re walkin’ to background love.
It’s an emergency.
Auroville’s dyin’
all over again.
It’s not the first time.
God gave her a bulletproof vest.
Bet you didn’t know that.
It doesn’t work sometimes,
as you can see now.
Roll a joint and pass the ammunition.
There’s a fight goin’ on in Auroville
over spiritual aim.
No worries,
many efforts
bless this mess.
And now you think I smoke pot.
It’s just a figure of speech
to unhand you.
It’s a flashpoint in Auroville,
and people don’t like it there.
The Mother said so
inflexibly no.
And you got her lists.
Not all of them work,
and she never got down to business
with the master plan.
I’ll tiny tiger this in myself,
somebody that listens to her quickly
in tales of the inner voice.
I don’t believe it’s me either,
but there you go.
My little boy was complainin’
the heaviness of the knowledge of God,
oh for example,
did you know daddy the world’s in pain?
He calls me grandpa.
I’m his spiritual teacher,
and he’s woken up to world pain,
bein’ yanked so hard by his own.
You got to know consciousness
as a spiritual aim.
Now let’s go to district 9
and give this poem some perspective
of the deepness of the knowledge of God.
He calls me master.
You know the relationship,
and they lesson there.
Wow, kangaroos,
and he really matures in that pouch.
That’s been keeping me here. [heard spoken in Nithish’s voice]
Gonna go soon,
back to daddy
and our spiritual endeavor,
the node of our relationship.
Where is it?
In that field of love.
Now the brass of Auroville
don’t stomach these waters.
You have to admit a little Reagan post.
Carrying a seditious act,
no I’m not.
You must be mistaken.
You must have me confused me with the wrong Donny.
The scaffoldin’,
it’s too much.
Find it on paper,
consciousness poem.
Huntin’ to see you again,
your big-eyed boy.
He lays in bed at night
sleepless worry,
and he can’t soothe himself.
Headaches and dizziness spell his day.
This is suffering.
Glued to him from the inner consciousness,
you manage to hold him
and speak into his mind
where his heart meets the road.
He knows you’re there.
I’m sorry sweetheart this is burnin’.
Warn title,
will you lie to me?
A terrible story
that come in the place of him?
Another body
than pain
he had to be aroused,
another program:
he loves the Mother.
She was something down
where you lost God.
You know what I mean:
you were born in my commitment.
Now I need yah to look up
and sound off the important test,
a poem in your stadium write
that helps us all to be feet
to the Mystery who cares,
balancin’ time on a rainbow,
the supramental transformation in children,
what is on your tops,
I kid you not,
waiting for Hollywood
to get with the lesson plan
and surpass Disney
there’s a child
in need of imagination.
Get it ate at the light
of the new world you’re figurin’
in the verse you’ve already written.
Hold on I’m comin’,
my sweet, beautiful boy.
Town’s end,
and miracle show up,
wonderful
ridin’ spiritual love.
Honestly,
this is brand new
eyes on God.
The above poem too was declined by the admin of the private Facebook group Auroville International. My muse wrote a short poem in response, suggesting what picture of go with it, “A picture of a rainbow,” before I even found that out, which I posted on their page and which will, no doubt, also be declined. Postscript: it was declined.

In Sudden Splendor Facin' Rainbows
No one has ever done this before.
I'm a threat to everybody's system of order.
I want a new world see,
and I want it to work,
and I want it to plan.
You delete that in Auroville,
too ordinary
to let the world happen there,
oh you bunch of men and women
blocking the Sun.
I'll tell everybody.
[a link I left to this post]
Auroville International
Auroville International (AVI) is a worldwide network aiming at the support of the development of Auroville in all its aspects. Founded in 1983 it is legally registered in the Netherlands, with a representation in 34 countries around the world – nine national centres, which are registered associations in their respective countries, and twenty-five liaisons, which may be smaller groups or single individuals.
It must be said that the Facebook group Auroville INDIA approved and posted this poem, as they have several others everyone else has declined.
What the Mother Said
Yawn as you snap them Gods.
They wouldn’t know what to do with Themselves
free.
We see Them bound to our lives
in cosmic grooves of fate.
They are larger than time.
They can’t get out of this.
We are prisoners in Their room.
They study us.
They can’t seem to get us right.
We’re a whirlwind
in a thunderstorm,
and They are stillness and delight,
and They control themselves with might.
The clash of Speakers we hear overhead,
They’re around about us now.
We are cosmic poles
in Their existence.
Hear Them call our name.
Hear Them be there for us
to change our natures into man.
If you don’t think you’re an animal look back now,
where you meet nature in a click
that eats up all of nature’s stores,
and then you go to war.
You’re a forest dweller
in the nature of your desires.
You can’t see past get up and go.
The Gods are there on our tops,
guiding us to better cages.
They do not know the freedom of the Infinite.
In a paradox of know,
They stumble upon the Infinite
and stretch it to tin cans.
The Gods they wore,
the bright and start of old.
They can’t seem to find the Infinite
all their knowledge bore.
They cut us in creeds
of certain flesh.
Religion bore that name.
The Gods have bound us
to this.
They are a soliloquy on our tops,
giving us lore.
I can’t find this
improving our lives.
They are a reason against the Snake,
but where they find you biting,
They are blind to heal you.
They just make you stop.
They don’t know the deeper reasons
of life’s coil.
They are not there you see
here on life’s base
encased in matter.
They see us from afar
up close.
They do not understand the knot and waste.
They live out Their lives in splendid heavens,
traveling toward infinity,
the kingdom of God,
all righteousness and wrath.
They sip with us awhile
foundering on compassion.
They are brave and strong
and know not the poison of the fall.
Evil is not on Their lists.
It baffles Them and us.
They chase it out of night.
They battle it with Their spears and helmets
on the patchwork of the universe.
We are Their hope and promise
to principle evil
and grab it by the horns,
a victory for starry Earth.
A seer in his wisdom
has gift the Gods to us,
else we would fall into the Void.
This is not our fate,
but we are beyond the Gods
on our journey home.
They are a regulation and a might
to keep us from starring ourselves,
to keep us from getting bigger than our lists,
to keep us from operating on ourselves
where They are concerned.
They are both a help and a hindrance.
We need Them.
No we don’t.
They help us
get hold of ourselves.
They keep us from going home.
We just changed fate and the world,
without Their interference,
where They languish on land.
We’re here.
They’re not.
Beyond space and time
we write our lists.
The Gods can’t go there,
unless they do as one of us.
That’s a starry role,
fraught with peril,
fraught with mercy.
This is an endeavor for the Gods only
if They want to go beyond Their starry heaven.
We don’t see Them do that
none time soon.
The Earth’s great spiritualization
will see Them incarnate here.
It’s a vehicle of Supermind.
The tallest bond,
this is the engine we’ve all been waiting for.
It’s bigger than the sky.
It’s our next step above,
beyond the Gods.
These are our evolutionary springs
and their destination.
We have broke the bounds of the universe
and come to universal cause.
No cosmic God can figure this.
This is a whole other ballgame.
These are universal bonds
the conditions of the universe find us in.
They prefigure us
to a certain stage.
This is starry night,
and the Gods are our guides
the conditions of the universe impose.
This is our starry prison.
A nursery rhyme is this.
We live on high,
who we are above the universe,
our next prefigured destiny.
The Gods are aware of this.
They are not our goads there.
They hinder us and move us
in Their direction.
This is a starry configuration
we are lost in.
Greater home is ours.
Can you save the Gods?
I wouldn’t even find you there.
The Gods are cosmic hierarchies
permanent in Their heavens,
and They love it here,
all-powerful Beings
with worlds to play.
We applaud Them and move on.
Can you see this?
It’s what we’re doin’ on planet Earth.
We will bring our higher selves here
to inhabit bodies on physical Earth,
our bodies,
in evolution’s slow curve.
Who we are on high
will be who we are down below,
the monumental change hidden in the size of Earth.
We will get there,
and existence will have its heaven right here.
Will you notice this in your room?
It’s starting on our tops now,
and here I am showin’ it to yah
in sudden starts.
Greatness lies wait.
Okay,
global consciousness,
and we’ve found our solution to the room,
present Supermind.
These are the high stakes.
We’re in the water now.
Who we gonna tell?
Come on kids let’s go.
We have a world to feel.
Keeps yah on your toes.
This is the most important
thing to hold onto to:
challenge the window.
We don’t beg each other’s fences.
Here everybody that’s a whole Earth.
The lesson in the window:
through a big difference
we see it all.
Bring in a new game.
How was Earth made?
It has a special core,
the universal core.
How do we evolve what do we evolve?
We can hack other Minds.
Clarity Grace is not just a name.
It’s an power,
one of a kind for Earth.
Kings are not just patriots.
They’re criminals in their own kind.
We should put some cushions under the Earth.
We just dream of a perfect life.
[the above verse Nithish’s muse, my 12-year-old grandson,
what he heard right where mine left off, ending this poem.
He’s named his new Beagle puppy Clarity Grace.]
The universe has hit me,
and we saw it happen
the universe of Nithish,
not quite done.
You’ve gotta figure we’ve got a friend with some God,
the cosmic hierarchies Mother and Sri Aurobindo.
You’ve got to figure we’re in liaison with some God.
It’s the mailman
in a blue truck
open to Supermind
at every pole.

Infinity Meets Its Stairwell
A different kind of story.
I’ll write it across the sky:
I am a poet of the Mother and Sri Aurobindo.
I’m a 12-year-old poet.
I am an original poet.
I’m a muse poet,
no help given
to the writing of this poem.
We have as little as possible to do with bounds.
Everything,
if you think of something divine,
it lights up.
Grape juice,
what’s the price?
To get this boy’s poem published?
Use the excellent hunter witchcraft.
This is by far the best boat.
We have an epiphany of being.
It lasts.
It shoulders reality.
It doesn’t go away.
It will be there when we get back.
That’s an ankle torn,
lavishly spent on nature.
I think we disappear awhile
into our compellings.
This could be a shade of grey,
or the self-righteous crowd.
We hang there.
We brood there.
We don’t know what it means.
I think Earth has taken us by the hand
to stumble some.
Are we workin’ things out?
We’re an operation reality.
So many meanings made clear
where we go wrong.
Can you see this?
It reaches us
right there where we’re at.
There is no perfection slave point.
We arrive there,
post-stumblings.
It’s as certain as Earth.
This is all in a car now.
We hump it some.
I can’t show you the Earth.
There are no fields there
perfection’s sum,
the arrived at.
I can only show you time
in her suspended miracle.
Each failing of Earth
gathers us.
It fixes us
where we find wounds.
I think the urge there is to heal,
in humanity,
and in ourselves.
What have we done to the Earth?
And you think this is out of step
with nature’s plan?
Of course we rob/ruin it. [words heard spoken simultaneously]
No other animal would do otherwise
in the glory of its day.
So how do we naturally put on?
Give the Earth time to heal
its man-plan.
This is far away from us?
You’ve got it in your hand.
We open Earth with it,
one story at a time,
stories big enough to see us,
because they’ve hit us in the quick of ourselves,
in what it means to be human.
We lavish such stories
in exaggerated can.
There are all humans to meet,
who spiritualize themselves
and bring out of them soul.
You can’t see this plan.
The story has made us discover ourselves
in an avoidance of Mars,
the tribe of our taboos,
that can make you vomit
if you find it close,
that can heal your scars
when you find it redemption.
What do we do with this?
He’s a pedophile throw him away.
You nincompoop,
this blesses us,
if we know it arrives at noon,
if we can call it our own,
sit with it
and not react.
I can’t spy this in for you.
You’ve got to see it yourself.
You’ve got to be there with the Earth
where she most needs.
You’ve got to be open to chance,
and from bad things can come good things,
if we arrive there.
The Earth is a joy shout out.
It means somethin’.
Every separate thing
loosened from its coils
came from her divinity’s roll out.
Some have become perverted in the mask of space.
They have a divine element.
They come back to themselves,
over and over again,
if we can find that purpose put.
And the pedophile becomes a purpose maker
in the intensity of small children.
Instead of sex he gives them stars.
Your disbelief is operating now.
It blights this page,
and I’m stuck with it,
have to sit with it and stare at time.
You won’t release me.
And we’re crowdin’ in on time.
My boy has submitted his first poem
to a literary showcase
here in India.
There will be others.
He’s 12,
and comes upon us another snag:
did he write this?
You maniac,
you are horrible disbelief.
You would destroy the world if you could,
rather than read his poetry lie down.
I’m making it visible now,
Nithish’s hotspot,
where he finds muse.
This is in our certain poetry together
in the soliloquy of love.
A shapeshifter,
I’ve morphed into my true form:
hello there boy,
I’m intensity of consciousness open up
to intensity of purpose,
hanging your own star.
Watch that glow.
Good God that’s purpose,
smellin’ salts.
Stories that make you puke,
stories that rhyme with the Earth,
calculate us
and make us see.
They involve with us
to every hand’s on healing.
Do tell,
and here I am in that yard.
Wrap me around the world, will yah?
I’m certain.
Watch it,
a fuller opera,
a zero point ignition,
reaches Earth.
Deepenings
The title to this poem came, meaning was spoken into my inner ear, at the very moment in the movie Maestro when Mahler’s Resurrection Symphony ends, which the main character, Leonard Bernstein, is conducting inside Ely Cathedral, England.
You’re gonna light a fire then,
somewhere in your heart,
to see past form and measure.
I can’t show this to you.
This is big stuff.
I ride it sometimes
a formless thought
so big I can’t contain eternity.
I mean I see pictures
of the forms of things
and know they’re void.
I see the act.
I wonder over creation,
how formless it is
in reality,
in essence.
I mean there’s nothing there.
A hold on reality,
that is all,
some picture frame
that houses more it can be.
I’m riding the waves of time,
and I can’t believe it’s there.
It has formlessness attached
to every rod.
We’re seeing things
in the cough of the Void.
Oneness is there
absolute.
Now let me get at this seeing.
I see nothing
would not be the truth of the matter.
I see bright and shiny.
I see a world before my eyes
imbued with meaning.
It gets stuck sometimes.
Where does the meaning come from?
From my very lips.
That’s larger than sound.
A story is spoken into the Void,
and the aeons stamp it out,
and we hear it.
We can’t grasp its meaning,
but we know it’s there
animated by souls.
Oh my lovely little boy,
my Rottweiler,
my Doberman,
that candle on the street
honking at me,
they are all lit with soul.
I see it in their eyes.
I can’t get over the vision.
They’re larger than soul.
My God what’s in there?
Have you every been alone with yourself in the midst of another person,
in the grasp of the world?
They can be sucking your tongue.
Please, I’m a cultural enterprise.
Don’t bite me here.
You just stand there stark still
in disassociation’s quiverings.
Infinity bites the finite.
You can’t get over that guy.
That’s the one that has you in hand,
the maker,
the dream maker,
the unimaginable everything that’s about you now.
Can he grasp you?
Can he pull your pants down?
You’re robbed of sense.
This is a stark moment.
I bound there.
I know it’s comin’:
I never leave there again.
And I’ve caught you in half circles of it.
I cannot grasp to you its whole.
I’m not there sometimes.
I never get to that fullness
in my momentary lapse
into the lapse of infinity.
My momentary circles
just buy me lunch,
and I breathe awhile
everything is wonderful and strange.
I get so excited
I opera to myself,
and I get scared sometimes
it gets so deep.
I’ve given you half failings
of what it means to be human.
We are so much bigger than stars.
We are that guy you see,
making his alone-rounds
where everything collides together.
Oh my God he’s a bulletin bull,
and I’ve reduced to you its mystery.
If infinities were universes,
all-encompassing infinity could not encompass him.
I’m just saltin’ the ocean
and countin’ crows.
This is bigger than time,
in any duration of its meaning.
We get bigger than universes,
and we get bigger than infinity.
We can crow there.
I’m taking you back through time
to hello please,
let’s take a bite of infinity.
You there,
in your suit,
remove yourself from time,
get back in yourself
to vision’s eyes.
Let down the world some
and revel in its majesty.
Get your gun out and shoot
at the presumption of the stars,
at God’s mighty glory,
at something that’s just so strange
God comes out of it.
Amazing
is just a teller in a window.
We’ve broken in on time.
Copy this down
the story of the universe.
It came from such musings
in infinity’s time.
Now it’s your story keep.
Will you handle it?
The Robinson Crusoe on Mars,
I’m a pallbearer.
Can you hear infinity?
Let your ego down some,
your ego’s guts,
the ego’s lair.
Divine intervention [this line from my little boy Nithish, from his muse, and came to him at this point in the writing of this poem, while having pizza in town at Taka Pizza]
beyond deity.
We’re lookin’ through
I don’t know if I can see that high.
The relationship starts
when you’re alone in your room,
your environing personal consciousness,
and you can field notes.
You can get in there.
Start noticin’ your room.
I’m not sayin’ wall yourself off from society.
There are times to be alone
in the midst of it.
Cut yourself off from society,
can you even do that?
It’s not possible.
We are your own personal consciousness
in the field of the One.
I vaguely remember
the strength we’re all together.
Here, this is a lily pond,
and you’ve lily’d unto yourself.
Draw back in your room.
Investigate reality.
The time will come
you will open doors
of seeing.
Let it happen.
Don’t count it away.
It will all come upon you when it’s there
tangible real.
You will billow in your room,
become a flower-pen.
You won’t let you down.
You’re on your way to seeing.
Just let the thoughts roll back
and thin towards silence,
and meet the world with that
in your vision’s eye,
in your mind’s eye,
and draw back the curtains
so you can see eternity at work.
These are not beliefs.
Just see.
Eventually
you’ll arrive on sight
into veilless infinity.
You will feel this in your room
stark naked.
Now you’re in glory hole.
Keep movin’.
You come to a fullness of yourself
riding waves.
Now tell me the world has no meaning.
You saw it, didn’t yah,
the meaning alone.
Did it wink at yah,
give you a nod?
Wow, that’s personal.
That’s really personal.
Well I’m writing my poems
the boost we need to get there.
You’ll walk around.
You needed something.
It’s the American revolution.
I think they stole it,
all this hatred online.
Has blocked poetry has blocked mine.
Show it to you investment in reality,
like you’ve never seen it seen.
This actor
shoots directly to you
I got the movie
in parables of see.
Wear it on your face
your intense hatred.
I’ve left it so beautiful,
reality’s face.
Where are you at that you can’t see it?
Swallow your nose.
Lay down your religion.
For once here we are at score.
It’s in your eyes today.
Willy Wonka,
will you offer some chocolate?
That’s administrators if you like it.
That’s the burn name.
I’m behind you
reality meets the press,
one second,
your thinking.
Captured,
Oppenhagger,
constructing love.
Under what conditions?
Bomb material
poems I publish.
You can hear me on the bus.
You pretend to ignore me.
Costing so much chocolate.
Yours was letter-formed into poems.
Think about it this is a different kind of funeral.
We lost you the character of new bullet
today.
A demon’s eye [Nithish’s muse, heard while behind me on the bike, seeing a bird with red eyes]
will distort to you the truth.
Don’t let it.
It’s got rings on it,
and it hurts you:
you are some kingpin you are not.
Stay away from demons.
You can get off here.
Did you just hear it speak?
A bit of muse
will show you the way.
I wouldn’t get hung up on it.
I would bring you to the truth,
and that’s bigger than reality,
and it’s not a game we play
to convince each other.
There is a vision there inside you
that can interpret reality.
We get along without it
most of the time.
That does not get you
to pure reality
or anywhere near the truth.
You just hang there.
Can we get beyond name and form?
We embrace each other there.
This is really personal.
We embrace each other there
and get out of ourselves.
Practical hands see the no-self show.
See that no-self show,
it’s that guy you see
stark naked.
I mean the cameras are in the room,
but there’s no cameraman,
just his see.
Awesome we wait time
the right formula
to meet the world,
and do everything we need to do
to stay alive
and operate reality
to a bigger game than time,
and become Ourselves again.
They’ve got a furigation.
They just don’t let the water go.
It’s the pilot Supermind we are beyond time.
No issues,
the body’s there too.
And now let’s hump reality
to the right place on earth,
where you are no ego,
riding waves of reality
to the see of that guy.
You there,
have I brought you home?
I can’t picture this.
Just look in your drawer.
You wouldn’t go through every picture.
Where do I see this?
Don’t laugh it’s in your room
larger than cat.
You’re gonna piddle me apart of course.
I’ve got a strength of muse.
You can’t get rid of me that easy.
You’re gettin’ enlightenment on a piece of paper.
Have you ever saw it before?
Do you need to see it?
It’s your lifeline.
It’s the reason you were created,
to become That you see.
There’s no way around it.
You can’t avoid it.
Your death journey has this in store,
but it’s here we graduate.
It’s here we do it.
It’s here we get it done.
There is no other place on earth
to take what you can get out of life
as your homecoming.
You only see animal quiverings,
do not know we get bigger than that.
Your spiritual empty,
but you can go the distance,
man you can go.
That’s what we Earth for,
to bring the planet here:
beyond the animal
into God-quiverings.
I don’t have it.
And I’m gonna pick him up,
lay the bridge down for him
in some parable of tomorrow.
Fasten your seatbelts.
Need to practice it,
the acceleration of life.
Need to get going.
Tra la la! [line heard yelled in the voice of Captain Underpants from the movie of the same name]
Oh hallelujah.
Peel back silence in your mind.
Lift it there.
Extraordinary,
you have depth of vision.
The Fate You’re Said Desperate Need
Looking my answer.
I’ve made such a rainbow.
No one sees its beauty/sense. [words spoken simultaneously]
It’s just another lunatic in a long game.
It’s just completely ignored,
except for a handful of brave souls
I would like to thank.
5,4,3,2,1,
I’m countin’ your love here.
You have risked your lives online
and put a like by my material.
Can I count that?
You must love humanity
more than your own lives,
or you feel so strongly
about what’s to do right,
you will put that before your very selves.
Where do I put you?
Go down my like columns and see.
KK, lunaiswriting, DirtySiFiBuddha, The Emotional Pixel, QuanTouch, B Gourley, Tony Self, Notes & Silence, Frank Solanki, Narayan Kaudinya, Elena, Lorene M., Bogdan Dragos,
and you others,
I don’t know what to say.
Thank you.
Let’s count the score.
I’m flabbergasted.
I don’t know what I mean.
I’ve counted meaning in the stars,
summed up the meaning of Earth,
and physically grasped Supermind,
and I’ve even housed meaning soul,
yet I cannot grasp in my own hands I write.
I cannot write my meaning in Earth.
I cannot even tarry there.
I don’t know how.
I don’t know where I am
where I meet you with the pen.
This is a mystery to me.
I am a steady stream of starlight
that doesn’t leave out one iota
of where my thoughts are,
my hands in the business of life,
my heart as it sees the world,
and I can’t even gauge you my time.
I write things down
I hear from on high,
and that is not the half of it.
I run this through the strands of my life.
I sit and wonder the lines I write.
I pick and choose and beg and plead
to give you the date of poetry.
It’s all scrambled up sometimes
in the gut-fields of life.
I cannot touch life.
In halls of infinity
I just get close to it
in storms of pen.
It won’t read me there.
It’s just about the lie
we value poets today.
Do you?
I can’t tell you how much
I spend on this.
It’s my life’s blood.
I work around everything to write.
I eat and I sleep
carrying muse.
I’m about the end of it,
how I begin each day.
I don’t think Shakespeare knew a better idiot
than I feel grasping you.
I’m sorry please.
I will arrive there one day,
where a poem’s just a piece of paper
I’ve handled meaning on,
and I don’t handle meaning in terms of readers.
I’m gettin’ there.
I can see it now.
What do we do with the orange crush?
You’re gonna sneak up on my meaning as I write.
You think it’s about lollipops.
I’m just tryin’ to grasp myself today
a writer of poems
on Earth’s starward prow,
in her meaning lists,
and where I find the Sun.
I gobble down the stars,
lick up the scraps.
Do you know muse?
I am so entertained.
It’s an amusement park,
and to think this is for all mankind?
Wow, we watch TV with it,
put it in our pipe and smoke it no.
Did that just happen to me?
I’ve heard a line of muse,
saw a vision,
and the sign said poetry.
And we grasp Earth in our specialness
and want to tell the world.
It’s not ready for it yet,
and you can’t get there yet,
show your muse.
Don’t throw it away.
It’s got vision’s long hold on it.
It will mature brightly.
You’re not showin’ it to people.
You’re just listening muse.
It’s got a lot to show for it.
You’re gettin’ bigger kid,
lookin’ at the world some
a God vision growing.
You think you’re a pilot of the world?
Oh please we’ve all been there,
considering ourselves.
We can grow so much bigger in our thoughts.
We can get bigger than ourselves.
We can surely get there.
Do you know how far this is?
I don’t think you can touch it with ego.
It’s on the other side of the universe.
A change of consciousness gets you there,
and that’s where we measure our days,
not in muse.
A change of consciousness ahead,
that’s where we measure muse.
Is it happening to us?
Is it real?
Is it there yet?
Do you see the lightning?
Oh wow better poetry
can I Lord please write?
Where I am today:
I don’t think anybody hears me.
You silly fool,
write
measured pace.
Run it through the ringer of my life
and be bold,
casual and free.
Newman,
we’ve got that ticket.
Caught a moment off Gods
to the camera
you’re the human being.
Focus any of my material?
Put it on that lawn,
Lucille Balls.
We’re negotiating shelter.
What principles create him greater need?
He’s blarin’ at yah
sorry about the needful.
There’s time to look at it.
I’m sorry I say so much
that brings out your life.
Are you crazy?
You give the essential details;
there is no need to give them.
He needs to got
put in the hold.
You’re listenin’ to him.
Open it up
Americans,
because Americans with a policy
—okay let’s go under—
with a policy to grow anything.
The only way I talk to you is throwin’ you out. [line heard sung, voice of Dolly Parton]
You wanna sit your own ass
on the opposite side
of going off the bridge.
Yep, that outta do it,
environmental change.
Call your father
Christmas.
I can’t call anybody.
I’m not allowed to write.
It’s because you never get read.
They’re gonna come,
the people who read newspapers.
I just want to look at the must angle.
We need these right now,
these poems called freedom,
how you pronounce it,
how it’s acting.
And I have a lovely single for you today,
another poem,
good story,
man's help.
And for poem’s sake,
the runner,
Beavis and Beauty—
I’m underpinnings;
I’m the laugh of the party;
I’m in there a broad measure of healing.
Let’s leave it up to another empty poem
to give us some ground rules.
The Availability of Stars
Now pedophilia,
that’s the most indistinct thing there.
You are taken
this close.
And I just hang there.
I have nothing to show for it.
You’re in a square seat
behind holes of reality.
You’ve got the best seat on earth,
larger than mankind.
You don’t bow to no one.
You’re really there.
You’re the right person
to handle the Word.
You are Our go man.
You are not some blind wall.
We listen to you.
It’s a conscious place in there.
You feel the world.
You feel in there.
The dawn of a new age
between icebergs.
We can’t let the stories out.
Regal and important,
they show us our under wares.
We can’t see them
because the gatekeeper says no.
They move us,
give us another time,
tranquille.
We can’t find the time to read them.
A Green Beret,
I parachuted into Germany with an atom bomb.
No, Luna puppy,
I’ve jumped out of Mars.
I’d love to tell yah the story.
One single incident
would be almost big enough,
but I’ve landed Silent Mind.
On the approach
to return to this land.
It makes gold for good seeing.
Memorable wares,
I’ve put poems on mountaintops,
in the station of Mount Sinai
and on the 14 Stations of the Cross
in Old Jerusalem.
I put “The Last Man on Earth”
in the sarcophagus of the Great Pyramid in Egypt.
A few people saw me do it.
It wasn’t a landslide.
I travelled the world a vagabond pilgrim
in the early days of the net
and did not record it there,
for years.
Country to country saw me soup,
and I gathered myself there.
In one tall swoop,
long before I left Houston,
a Classical Greek scholar I was,
I became the person I am presiding over all these lives.
I became my Godself on high.
I mean I went up there
long enough to know Who I am.
That started my life.
I was born in that moment
as one who stretches the Earth.
What a thing to say
if you’re just some yahoo,
even with all the trailers
this poem has shown you.
Can you hear them?
I’m not dyin’ in my lunch.
I’m a livin’ breathin’ testament
of I have lived sir,
man I have lived ma’am.
Can you see that way?
Do you even care?
X-men have got you by the heart,
and the Avengers have blinded you,
story after story of savin’ the world,
and the human can’t even get there.
We bleed our stories
so they make Earth pretend,
so they grasp the wrong value,
so they tattletale in our arms.
Can we find our soul?
Would you believe it’s not a person?
And it’s not our stars.
It’s an ocean down a deep well
that you can find if you get there
falling sleep.
I took my conscious that far,
falling,
over several days of exploration,
and I found my soul.
Are you on the move?
And you think you’re only on the outside
travelin’?
Who’s cleaning this mess up?
My goodness guy.
And we’ve met the soul watch.
Our personhood has launched it
to develop life.
That’s why it’s here.
When you find it you activate that,
and it cleans up messes,
and it’s inevitable you rise
a soul see.
I’ve grounded that,
and I turn the tables on you.
I don’t think you’ve found that ocean yet.
And I have found the stars
where I sit,
and I have found the Earth where I sit.
The soul has brought me here.
It’s larger than mountains,
more infinity than space,
and that’s our standin’ ground.
It’s all over the place.
It’s in this room right now
greater see.
I’m here to show you the real.
I entered this world a pedophile,
and all you’ve heard
has been my means to change.
I could not just be a normal citizen,
not in my brood,
not where my society reach romantic heart,
not in my roving center
where I attracted to the world.
You don’t understand polyp,
and you think freewill is everywhere.
I gunned this life.
I really put it on,
the role a lifetime keeper.
I am here before you today
on poet watch.
I give you the stars.
I give you the formula for change.
Will you unload that
to where the voice can see it,
the net speaker?
I’m comin’ to yah today
where we meet the Earth.
I’m not sutterin’.
I am right there.
What just happened?
I gathered the rainbow
and showed it to yah,
and showed yah who you are.
You are that God on high,
the One I described above.
It is the Maker.
It is the Shaker.
It is Who we all are
in the dynamics of deity,
and here we all are
lost in the world we have created,
foundering in the universe we began,
and we need to get there,
to our creator self,
where it meets us here.
That’s the gist of the story,
of every story on earth.
I populate it now
with facts,
with a storyline.
Understanding?
Give it all you got.
