false assumption for donkey’s years
barking up the wrong tree
we really are apples and oranges?
be out of our tree
time’s made a real dog’s breakfast of those core issues

an unintelligible world devoid of God
curiosity killed the cat
‘search me’
with a gesture of despair
cut a tooth
‘This sickness is not unto death’
get your teeth into

a fly in the ointment
heavenly bodies flew down to the earth
praise to the skies
time makes my skin crawl
soul laid waste by sinful thoughts
I escaped defeat by the skin of my teeth

lack of total vision
fastened with a lock
mind amputated
the survival of the fittest
plans for a success now lie in ruins
time opened its spigots

lies and deception
illusion and a deceit
tricks intended
the bare bones of the soul
heart’s a frightened child
tired of the masquerade…

we need a composed frame of mind
where mind becomes equanimous
Biblical genocide
when God determined to "make an end of all flesh"
make your flesh creep

the totality of divine powers
humans are divine souls?
trapped in a material world
the non-physical realm of space
daemonic and chaotic entities reside
empyrean heaven

burning sight
melting future
the charred remains of a burnt-out dreams
like we had the sun in our eyes?
Back to the Future
a devastating reality..

implicitly or explicitly
between the wisdom and the faith
the seeds of life
panspermia —
literally seeds everywhere
or more than Panspermia

a place in the sun
but the time has a real chip on it’s shoulder
A pale wintry sun shone through the clouds
it seemed, that sun was not enough
ice in eyes
ice on the face
ice on the surface

kissing passionately
I can still vividly remember
at that moment
your sense of magic
had brought me closer to you
snuggled close up
sweet surrender!

"panentheism?
or pantheism?"
"body and soul,
mind -god
body – Jesus
soul – spirit
trinity!
father, son, spirit
past, present and future!"

We’re relying on him to give the world a cutting edge?
Obama could be a peace maker or peace keeper?

Sundial and Earth’s rotation
analemma in contempt their treatment towards life was beneath contempt?
the scintillating and cerulean haze
tenebrous mist
ambient gelidity
elliptical avail

she has been waiting for the candle to burn with a bright flame
‘There you are,’ said a voice behind her.
she snuffed out a candle but a hope flamed in her

your responsibility being a mother is a different story but I remembered you were talking about your dreams!

Don’t interfere in what doesn’t concern you

a constricted vision of the world
when the sun reclines
the night consumes light
geological epochs
epochs fly
the time blinded by a thousand dying suns

Pieces of wreckage
rusted door
a few scattered settlements
an old dream rusting away outside
eradication extirpate
abolition terminated?
extermination life will cease

extremely insane mind
resting fear
resting unconscious
the subconscious mind
unconscious desires
a strange inhuman sound
living in the circle
Pushed up by lines

Colour of my dream
eyes..
hallucinations start to fade
there are many dreams
but there’s no sound
I can feel the wind
Underneath my feet…
