287 oasis


In
Implacable desert
Everyday Miracles Abound

Only my human heart
Exalts
In flawed
Perceptions
Of Worth
And
Deservedness

Flowing from the faintest
Belief
Miracles exist
Because I do

286 raven moon

Alone
In this stillness
I am
The shadow
And
The light

Hope and Fear
Share
My breath

Dark wing
In the
Moonlight

I flee from
All
Thought

285 communion


In the
Communion
of Soul
all other voices
are
silenced

Time ceases its
incessant
chatter

Breath is shared
Heartbeat echoed
in
sweet
Concord

284 impermanence


Control's avaricious grasp
Seeks impossible permanence

In mindful presence
Momentary miracles abound

283 grace

When I strip it down
To the very barest bones
Life is about flow

When storm clouds gather
I choose to exalt
In the majesty
And untold power

When a kind Sun shines
I bask in delight
In sweet providence
And true plenitude

When I embrace life
With gratitude in my heart
I know I am Loved

282 iced



Those faked moments of
Indifference which divert
Their minds from my pain

281 anger 02

Sometimes
Anger is the only thing
That keeps
The parts of me
From
Falling apart

Anger at myself
For getting stuck in this place
And not moving on

Anger at others
For being part of the problem
And not the solution

Rather
Anger than despair
Rather
Frustration than fear
Rather
Cynicism than loss of hope

But each wave of
Anger
Drowns my Spirit
Dulls my Heart
Distracts my mind

Its easier to imagine
The enemy out there
Than to see her in my own eyes

279 reaching


In the
Constant
Striving
of Life

There are those sweet moments
When
We just stop
And smell the flowers

278 adornment


Our lives are adorned
with
Our relationships

Some,
We just know,
Make us infinitely
Beautiful

277 dark moon


The echoes of
Ancient agonies
Stain
Our collective consciousness

In love with pain
We are
Unable
To embrace bliss

Instead
We chase with
Insatiable appetites

And flood our dulled senses
With meaningless
Consumption
