#observing – The Zen Poetic

Plugged In

Enable your roots

Soul envelopes the whole tree

Nourish the branches

Paper Boat

Subtle shift in flow

Perceptions altered in state

Body calmly rests

Sticky Label

Note to self -
Who do you think you are?
What makes you tick?
Why so glib with your remarks?...

Do you see what I see?
Are you connected to my senses?
Or do you live in a separate dimension?

Deranged and estranged entanglement.
If you are me then what am I?

I glare bewilderingly into my reflection,
and ask, who's this guy?

Headless Nomad

The breath-work begins

Thought machine floating in space

Where is my head now?

Seeing The Feeling

They come and they go

Like memories made of sand

Like dust in the wind

Less is more

Awareness of awareness

Hyper sensitive alertness


Mutliverse of consciousness

Unexplained senselessness


Discontented with contentedness

This makes no difference to all suchness


It is, and that's that, no need for exegesis

Already whole, complete with fullness

 
It's not necessary to question it's genesis

More or less... An egoical exodus

Clouded Vision

Faded clarity

Drifting out of wakefulness

Asleep whilst dreaming

Elements

Carefully crafted

Each breathe invites more presence

Light up the candles

Pin Drop

Empty corridor 

Silence between the echoes 

Keep the voice on mute

Wind Chimes

Here’s one I spat out this afternoon…

Inner body
Spiritual quarry
Sacred sanctuary
Godlike laboratory 

Free mind
Third eye no longer blind
Compassionate, non-biased & kind
Seeks no more, no(-)thing to find

Free from the world of form
Stares without fear into the eye of the storm
The ego, the self, we no longer mourn
The shadow follows the light, without conform 

Ghost in a shell
Escaping from hell
Nothing to buy, nothing to sell
Silence the demons, with peaceful quell
