Right This Second
I want to know about now the now beneath my fingertips gone already, once aware of itself only in knowing it was, however briefly now, already left redundant not caring what came next any more than what passed, now, not caring whether moments exist when they disappear as footsteps erased by concrete now, no forward, no back, was but a motion carried by the ambling of tree trunks forever round and...

Funny isn’t it…. How we’ve chosen To be… Led, shown, guided, taught, illumined, inspired…. While others choose to be…. Shoved, tricked, cajoled, re-routed, mystified, shocked, mocked, De-frocked… For as many paths, There are as many Directions… Up, down, this-a-way, that-a-way, in, out, time-linear, time-none And for as many directions there are as many Dances; We can choose...

Where does the real poetry Come from? From the amorous sighs In this moist dark when making love With form or Spirit. Where does poetry live? In the eye that says, “Wow wee,” In the overpowering felt splendor Every sane mind knows When it realizes-our life dance Is only for a few magic Seconds, From the heart saying, Shouting, “I am so...

Rabindranath Tagore The time that my journey takes is long and the way of it long. I came out on the chariot of the first gleam of light, and pursued my voyage through the wildernesses of worlds leaving my track on many a star and planet. It is the most distant course that comes nearest to thyself, and that training is the most intricate which leads to the utter simplicity of a tune. The traveler...

I have walked though many lives Some of them my own, And I am not who I was, Though some principle of being Abides, from which I struggle not to stray When I look behind, As I am compelled to look Before I can gather strength To proceed on my journey, I see the milestones dwindling Towards the horizon And the slow fires trailing From the abandoned camp-sites Over which the scavenger angels Wheel...

They told each other of the dissatisfaction in their lives, how life was not what either had expected, how despite their best efforts, they seldom woke up happy in the morning, how they did not want to feel this way for the rest of their lives. One said things were so bad he was thinking about going to see a psychotherapist; the other...

There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique.
