What the Mother Said

All photos by the author
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.

Ruptured the Dynamism

I want to be Rivendell to meet,
not some pedophile sandbag.
A lot of people meet me everyday.
I’m countin’ the reaction
when you’re encountered with pedophiles.
I’m goin’ to school where I meet yah,
and would you believe you could learn about the sky here?
They stole it,
people who let social stigma get in the way of their judgment.
Did we just mention everybody?
For awhile there,
Jesus was not one of ‘em.
Now he’d be right there judgin’ yah with everybody else,
because he’s a Christian.

Do we have anything fat to look at?
Can we get into a different defense cave?
Social stigmas don’t have sting anymore.
It’s not visible too seen.
You think you know everything.
What does this cost us?
Would you believe the stars?
You can’t go there.
You can’t even run.
It’s got yah by the balls.
You’re not helpin’ anyone
sexual sinners included.

Did we just mention social stigma?
The heart of the disease.
It camps us
in the hatred of the sinner.
It’s here we have social margins,
places we cannot cross,
the ultimate taboos of society,
bigger than even eating your neighbor.
Can you feel the hate down there?
What riles you up more
against the sinner?
Where do you go with that?
In the news.

I’d like to lesson faith,
put Christ there on the table
and examine him.
Let’s start with Buddha.
Do you see love?

Hell even Krishna would say no
in a pedophile open container.
Muhammad would just deny that it ever be.
I’m countin’ populations
of this faith or another,
that give us Godly love.
The population says no,
if we’re lookin’ in sexual drawers.
Why is that?
Godly love’s not among them.

Progress,
we haven’t seen this yet
to stop hate here.
Have I come to a common denominator
what eats the heart of man?
And we can come further.
We can see this thing.
We can liken it to our lives.
We can know it hurts us,
to always have the scarlet letter
we give people to wear.
I’m talkin’ about every day,
every hour,
every minute,
on this Earth,
and multiply that times humanity.

Silent
the Staffers are about this,
the administrators of humanity,
the ones who give us the news,
the ones who sell religion,
and the poet,
and the playwright,
and anybody who makes noise.
A lot of people
mention queers and transgenders
and other fancy stuff,
but they sure aren’t showin’ us the leaven
of the rule to hate sexual sinners,
very different
from accept me I’m gay.

Did Jesus come to heal that?
A powerful religious figure.
Have we come that far,
where we can recognize the sinner
in the ones who are to us Gods?
And the ones we recognize as Gods,
they wear perfection you see,
so they have authority,
so they don’t blind us
with true vision.
We can’t take that light.
Mother Mary was a saint,
and Jesus never sinned.
Can we get outta here?
Out of wedlock has got us by the balls.

It damages us,
makes us see right
in lying about the Light.
Muhammad never loved women
and failed God there.
Can we see this for the truth?
I think someone would kill me if I said it,
and word got around.
Our religious bringers,
even if they don’t know it,
are tryin’ to heal humanity
where their own lives are concerned.

Of religious hate,
it can’t see this.
Of religious hate,
this is all over the place,
and here it’s most prevalent and mean,
most pronounced,
and it’s there
in your jury room,
and it’s there
in your heartbeats.
What do we need to heal?
Society,
if we ever hope to help the Earth.
Environmental change to a better Earth for all
begins there.
It’s our starward.
It’s our hope.
It’s where we meet each other.

Who do you revile the most?
That’s the key ingredient of our change.
It’s where we find each other
on common ground.
It’s where we pick apart humanity
and find its managing flaws.
It’s where we touch base with one another,
and it stinks to high heaven.
It’s beyond the pale.
It’s what moves us
to rape, murder, and war,
because it’s our common denominator,
LCD hate,
the hatred we all share.
Move that,
touch that,
and we all quiver.

Are you there yet?
I’m roundin’ you out some.
I’ve got a field to show.
Hear my heartache?
I am everywhere.
I’m in your shoes now.
Feel free to put your comments in the minus bar,
is that what you say Eddie?
Is that where you’re at?
It’s where we draw morality today.

The Minister Everywhere

What is it about to see a priest?
Be reviewed by God
doesn’t happen.
You’ve just been given time off
from that urge to find God.
It satisfies your religious sense,
nothing else.

That’s the big lie:
popes and priests grapple for you God.
They are the wellspring
of our inability to find God.
You must believe in them or else.
Have I mentioned the clergy?

We think they’re holy men and women.
They don’t know how to tie their shoe:
be a system unto God.
They are a profession in a bank,
are not knowledge of God.
They can show us the way to enlightenment
very few.

What do you do with them?
Helping men and women for causes just
we give them credit for.
Something in them has a calling
they’ve mistranslated into religion.

They could go deeper,
and some have.
I don’t think you would find them in today’s textbook,
but I’m sure there’s one or two out there.

So are they obstacles to God?
In a manner of speaking yes.
Desmond Tutu would not find for you revelation.
You quote man’s ways
on his greater path.
You are not a stark naked outlook on God.

So, do we just find God ourselves
unaided from God?
What is a seer?
They’ve opened God unto their lives,
can express the spoken word
they hear from on high
or from their being’s core,
the hidden speech
that labors out the world.

It is not God talking,
but it is the sound of His voice,
clear with His meanings dim,
for God cannot inhabit human speech,
but revelations still come down,
and the mystic word gives us bright hints of God.
This the seer does.

You have heard him spoken in cities,
heard her upon the mountaintop.
Can you find the inner Guide?
That’s the clergyman in every home,
the minister everywhere.
Can we come to this?
Can we be unto God?
The minister of the Earth
God everywhere.
