gatesofgrace...

one gate that's closed in the night,
thinking always...wrong and right...
pain and suffering, justice proclaimed,
hell or heaven in God's name...
judgments issued in evil or good,
will keep gates closed in oughts and should.
and yet there's grace...all is as is,
the Universe's only to give...
rigorous self-honesty is the key...
the gift of grace, in love...and free...

I AM...

I AM the air that you breathe,
I AM the changing colors of leave,
I AM the moonlight, dancing on a beam,
I AM the dreamer of 'your' dream.
I AM the pen, and hand that writes,
I AM the day; I AM the night.
I AM the kiss that leaves your lips,
I AM the ego, that falls and trips.
I AM the child and the old man,
I AM the end, begin again.
I AM the tree, and every flower,
I AM the moment, and every hour.
I AM the dark night of 'your' soul,
I AM the stay,
I AM the go.
I AM the peace you are at heart,
I AM the whole and every part.
I AM awake,
I AM aleep,
I AM 'your' soul,
I AM 'your' free.
I AM THAT I AM...'your' every need.
I AM YOU...YOU ARE ME...

Free...

Have been set free,
From Maya's Trinity,
Now experiencing Golden Soul;
Dancing the Dream,
Dreamweaver Weave,
Into the Source 'i' go...
Free at last to play in the rain,
And know that IT IS play;
Freedom's been eternally,
Along IT'S light of day...
Being bubbling over...
Full of what IT IS...
Conscious Being, Living, Breathing,
Pretending human...BLISS...

looking within...the golden soul...

i looked inside the books of old,
trying to find the golden soul...
i prayed to every god conceived,
my faith was strong i did believe...
and still sadness it overwhelmed,
created fears...religious hells...
where would the kingdom of heaven be,
and when will discontentment leave?

i looked to you to give me love,
and when you did, i flew above,
yet when you failed, i felt so low,
and on and on emotions go...
had nothing at all to do
with the golden soul...

spent so much time upon my knees,
begging god to help me please,
i could not understand my pain,
i only knew i was insane,
rain and sun it comes and goes,
has nothing at all to do
with the golden soul...

free at last from thought and mind,
looked within nothing to find,
ego is not really real,
psyche now need but to heal,
round and round the circle goes,
has nothing at all to do
with the golden soul...

what i am i've always been,
there's nothing more,
just look within,
on and on and on life goes,
has everything to do,
with the golden soul...

states of enlightenment...

there is no becoming,
no absolute to reach,
no consciousness that is not already,
no state of enlightenment to teach...
accepting all just as IT IS,
and knowing IT IS all,
not ONE not TWO,
no me or you,
unknowing into freefall...
there is no dancer,
there is no dream,
nothing to wake up to,
there is no one to wake up,
and there is nothing to do.
there is no path to follow,
no scripture that takes you there,
no one to go, no where to go,
IT IS every and no where...
there is no becoming,
no absolute to reach,
no conscious being that is not already,
no states of enlightment to teach...
