Prom prom

A prompt from the middle of nowhere

A scenic voyage of great beauty

An unwavering gesture from existence itself

Makes for a veritable treat for glowing hearts

Gut Feeling

It’s like a dream, an aura
Jelly and diamonds,
The smell of a burger

Angels abound, and so do the stars
They wait, and they keep waiting
But the music is broken into silence
And in it, exists I.

Nuzzles

The night beckons the lovers

And the lovers listen,

And think and wonder

At the amazement,

At the wonders.

Forego – II

Reverence –

A most beautiful form

Dance in its glory,

Forego

Tuning out,

And staying afoot,

In all-encompassing compassion,

Doing, versus the fine art of keen observing

Waking life,

At every moment,

To snap out of it,

To do, effortlessly,

Could be all that matters.

Devices – II

Left to your own devices,

Left to yourself,

No proverbial race,

No race barriers,

What is it that you would do –

Dear,

What is it that that you would indulge in,

When you’re empty,

And yet so full.

Devices – I

Left to your own devices,

What is it that you would do,

What is that you would explore,

In the deepest crevices of your mind,

In the entryway to your psyche,

In the rambling mish-mash of your beautiful, twisted thoughts.

What is it that you would set alight, if you could,

What is it that you would look at, with wonder, and with delirious fancy,

What is that you would give wings to, in the burning territories of your feudal lands,

What is it, in the dark, wonderful, seething corners of your mind,

Would you, dare if you could, make sweet, sweet love to.

A Spiritual Guide to Existentialism

You are merely a manifestation of life, of energy, of spirit. That’s all you really are.

You got three choices –

You can put an end to your manifestation.
You can complain and grouch about the existence of your manifestation until it gets over.
You can do what your manifestation’s mind feels strongly about, and not engage with the shallow ego.

The world exists so that it can watch you giving yourself meaning and purpose. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Don’t ever take yourself too seriously or worry about every single thing you’ve done. Your decisions are more or less left to chance, and what you’ve made your mind up for, at the moment, is what you’ve made your mind up for. They weren’t anymore in your control than they had been.

We are but, merely, creatures of existence, with no sole or bigger purpose. We are all too small in the world. We can only make use of what existence has provided us with, and seek divinity and blessing in that. That is the ulterior purpose of life.

Breathe.

Healing –

May your pain humble you,

And put you on a path,

Where you find comfort and solace,

In life around you.
