My Search

I

Into the mystic realm,
I let my mind take flight,
Over stone strewn highways,
I search the endless night.

I was the Wanderer,
Looking for a goal,
And the Seeker,
Searching for my soul.

I walked the roads of idle fancy,
Paths of material delight,
Stumbling over stones of vain imaginings,
In my search for the light.

A voice deep within me cried:
"Here doesn't lay your goal,
Upon these darkened pathways,
You'll never find your sou."

II

Into the mystic realm,
Again my mind took flight,
Over well traveled highways,
I search the misty twilight.

I was a Seeer,
Seeking an unknown goal,
And a Stranger,
To my own soul.

In this realm of half-light,
I strolled the roads of tradition,
Picking my way carefully,
Through the shadows of superstition.

Still from within came the cry:
"Not in this realm is your goal,
Upon these half-lit pathways,
You'll never find your soul"

III

Into the mystic realm,
Again I took flight,
And walked the paths,
Where God has shed His light.

I walked the hallowed highways,
Trod by the Prophets of old,
Strolled the ancient paths,
Strewn with nuggets of pure gold.

This is the wondrous realm,
Where all paths become one,
This is the glorious land,
Illuminated by God's sun.

Through the Word of God,
I have found my soul,
In the Messenger for this age,
I have found my goal.

Slide Show

Slide Show: To Mark Sadan Sandwiched between yesterday and tomorrow negatives mate, give birth to corporeality hybrid: Slides sculpted by imagination and tinted with emotions reveal... A wall of cars standing guard over childhood memories; A door held in the embrace of darkness stands open to the pure light of faith; A dark Icelandic horse its main and tail flowing runs across the harsh landscape escaping from/to the home of the faire folk; Silent craters stand ...

Salvation on Interstate 95
November 22, 2018 at 8:07pm
Salvation on Interstate 95 On the highway to salvation, the soul radiantly acquiesces to both limitations of speed and confinement in matter. Confinement in a physical body, or mental machine, generates unreasonable fears. Of course, the left front tire might explode, or the semi-trailer truck in the middle lane might overturn on top of your car: this is only a metaphor for physical existence. Just as the Off ramp is a simile for sex, or some other mundane obsessio... [Read more]

Contemplating Unity 1 Unity in diversity All working in harmony To build a better world. 2 Being in unity That's important today. Nothing can resist the power of unity. 3 Evolution works toward unity. Through material and spiritual evolution Humanity moves toward unity. 4 Voices in the darkness, call for reconciliation, Call for America to implement The unity its flag represents. 5 Reflecting reality rainbows dance among obscuring clouds....

Unity Senstina

Unity Senstina Seven candles of unity, Seven lights to the world, Glow on the distant horizon, Growing brighter each day, Giving the downcast soul new hope, That world peace is in sight. The first candle that comes in sight, Is political unity; Giving world citizens new hope, That parties need not divide the world. The second light that nears each day: Agreement about global projects is on the horizon. The third candles on the horizon, Comes slowly into sight; Unity of fre... [Read more]
