The temple bell dies away
An Empire scatters to the winds
But the scene of a flower
In the evening air
Is Immortal, like the Rose
Whose red-spirituality
Is still tolling the bell
Still Holding up the Empire
Of beauty, this haunts even the sun
A silence at the palace chambers
Of the mystic visionary heart
The dream of life from
All my other dreams, the last symbol
She spreads infinity scrawled
In her pink petals to the starry sea
Each time I encounter that
The sacred fire that is God’s temple lit
A unity of the universe in a leaf
I know the spirit wears its own plumes
Back to the source of our divinity.

I affirm what Divinity affirms
What does God affirm?
So if you cannot negate
What God negates, how
Do you suppose to commune with her?
She knows that I am a member
Of ignorance-society, so she smiles
And ask me to have a sense of
Humour, I precede to fill my days
With signs of gratitude
For a Lord Supreme, nature
In the silence of earth-necessity
I affirm what evolution allows
Secretly, her powers of heaven-necessity
Immediately, faultlessly, working
Through me, as a Man who
Unknowingly crawls towards God
But women, breathlessly bow to Delight
Knowing divinity more intimately,
If I affirm those who empower nature
I must learn to serve women better.
My Beloved Supreme who
Teaches me how to give, not from capacity
But from striving to emulate her perfection.

Self-imprisonment began
The first day I escaped reality
Purity was my comfort
God was my last resort
I thought He would make
Some room for me
To stay in the Universe
As in his Heart
As long as I wanted to
I felt the Oneness of everything
A love that required
No explanation, peace
That needed no interpretation
Innocence, bliss, simplicity
Like a meditation to last
For lifetimes and eternities
Maybe, I became a sleepless
Dreamer, of God-Dreams
In my sutra, mantras, poems
With orphan-tears, maybe
Only God knows who I am
Only miracles of loving
Miracles of forgiving humanity
For the evolution of so much
Inequality, civil-war, pollution, vanity.

The way we move is freestyle
We are lyrical in our hands-held
Our bodies touch spiritually!
We are a coming together
Of natural opposites
I am hard and heavy
You are wet and light
My hands mould to your
Curves, with iron-quickness
Sending quivers through your spine
Our art is holy love-making
Your breasts know my palms
Like midnight friends, in a field
Where we play in our shared bed
Our talent is in rocking
We craft our own bed-tricks
Like hungry composers of the night
For what we do is our shared ecstasy
And I am not inspired to finish
What you inspire so easily in me
But I invest years in the craft
Of knowing how to please your body
As if it were an extension of your spirit
I kiss you repeatedly until
You are all wet, like a cell ready
To find its collective destination
The way we move is freestyle
Our lips dance upon the tip
Of the moment, our flesh trickling
With the urgency of loving blood
That wraps itself around so tenderly
Like a baby-haiku, our hips meet
For the remedy, of an embattled day

In the end, all that could be said
Stuck to the top of my mouth
My heart leapt
And fell back somewhere
Lost in the back of the Sun!
In the end, I still think of you
Like the pain of hurting
That never leaves, an end
That keeps repeating
And when they are ours
Fleeting hours that I know
You never think of me
For heaven wasn’t there
It was mine, my heart that broke
And will in a way, forever forego
The pleasures of being light & frolic
In my muscles, tense
There is a breath that never
Learned to let go, naked
With your face in my vision
On lost roads where you
Became my Goddess, agonized
Destined to be a mythical tragedy
In my spirit’s most unquiet hours.

Nobody ever called me Sunshine
Like a recluse I endured
The sound of solitude
The place where love
Meets alienation, dear alienation
A Nation where I had myself
Like an autistic poet
Mumbling in the social dark
With a longing gone unsatisfied
For the friends I never made
I am not sorry for my soul
For it can live a thousand times
But for a message of the
Humblest of moods, I bid thee goodnight
Nobody ever called me Sunshine
Like a sophist of the imagination
I swallowed deep, the sense
Of this was how I was, an existence
Private was all that I held dear
Strikingly anonymous, lonely and profound
I bore my grief with gentleness
I never excited anyone too much
My presence didn’t light
Your brightest smile, my smiles
Were invisible, as if for books
The light in my eyes was pure
It was a shadowy room
To be an island unto oneself
I’m tired though, of being
Overly familiar with myself.
Without too much joy, pride or
The feeling of being free.

Heaven is the deepest Mind
When all is dissolved
Galactic center, site-of-the-Architect
There I may recover
There I may be reborn
It is not for me to say if we are
Of Spiritual capacity, we all possess
A soul, something akin to a spirit
With or without adequate desire
Subliminal and Superconscient spark!
So look no further, than inside
That wish-well of subjectivity
Maker of eternal myths, reincarnated
From some collective-mind, again!
Heaven is a quantum space
Where we are all connected
Unity beyond nerve, intelligence behind cell
Purest posture of steady love
That Never bends, but bends all!
So let your soul seesaw, like a Dove
Through the invisible door, it does not
Want Oxygen, does not need wealth there
Its blood is comic, its empathy is perfect
So give yourself a soul, consummated
Let it bloom, for once in your life.

Facing snow, I sparkle with winter
Like tiny diamonds, carrying
Away my grieves, useless
Worries of the solitary snowflake
Falling ragged through the clouds
Snow dances with my feet
In the whirling wind, not green
The stove and my heart still
Look fiery red, through I cannot
Sit to read my books for grief
For grief is a dying thing
And Wuji hangs low with moonlight
Tonight, I watch the cosmic chambers
Alone, they don’t sink low like
They used to, when I was an astrologer
I do not see the jade arms of the stars
But together in brightness, through
The empty window, tears dried up.

Jade dew are my hands
Jade dew are my feet
I walk from Autumn to Winter
Beneath the groves of maple trees
Memories within in the cold
Rivers freeze as waves rise
I am a lonely boat covered by snow
I must keep my heart to evening’s ends
Wuji to meet the night’s sky
Everyday I follow the road
To the Capital, so bleak with tears
That freeze before they hit the ground
Jade dew is my breath
Sad reed flutes in my head
I am a minstrel’s incense and song
Bathed in moonlight of a forgotten hour
This too shall pass, says the inner sage
I wait for quiet morning light
And the floating of forever-green
The coming of spring, when I am not poor
When upon the classics I may rest
In the wealth of the hopeful light
This world’s events seems too bitter
Hurried unlike my peaceful thoughts
I am too civil for civilisation’s unrest
The greed and corruption of the city
Has conquered the west, our palaces
Are now full of noblemen of a savage age
The Jade lake is now no more
Like shifting clouds, all has been changed
Bathed in a sun of dragon scales
The holy face I used to know is gone
Now I count the blue chains of our imprisonment
Pearls on curtains, embroidery on pillows
Tattoos on the poor, this land of emperors
Jade dew is my heart, I am of the server’s class
A peasant sees what others must ignore
I turn my head, sad now for the place of song and dance
That was once my home, I must leave it
Jade dew is my sweat, all waters move
To the same source, like the grandson of fishermen
Dew chills the lotus pond, fish are eaten
Oils are used, gold is hoarded
Beautiful women gathered to be used
I’ve lost the true image of life, growing old
My white head drones and gazes
Jade dew are the low branches, ah fragrant
The surplus is gone, but some things remain.

O drops of me that trickle slow
The substance of my spirit
Last resort of Winter’s pause
That trickles for another Spring
I may never, unfold
Out of the fold of neurons
They are the inimitable poetry
Of the last woman, of my last year
Unfolded only by the finished inspiration
Of a lonely lifetime of writing
Unfolded, by the brawny embraces
Of mind pressing into words
With all the heart of great sympathies
O drops of me that end in blood
At last, I must give up this pen
To unfold out of the Folds
Of this humanity, will never do
There is too much to say
To ever write it in a poem
Though I admit the attempt
Was the poetic life of art for me.

Deprived of other Banquet,
I entertained to Risk –
With scant hope to change
But nutrition of Freewill
I’ve grown slender in poverty
With lucid soul withstanding all
‘Tis enough for me to Will
Freedom by hard-work’s decree
For we are all Pilgrims somehow
Reserved for hope & charity
Sometimes the giver, sometimes
The recipient, economy is well-scarce
The value of greatness was always
In Inner Wealth, never accepting failure
Bravery, is measure in kindness to oneself.

His – “last Poems”
Never felt quite complete
So he never stopped the silver beckoning
Poets – ended, with their voice lost
Unread, bundled for mediocrity
Not on record, but perished
Perhaps in a family journal
Found by grandchildren
Read for the briefest of moments
We all only but utter half a tune –
His poetry was thin-lipped madness
Writing to a Bridegroom, inside the self
Whose voice was a call from Eternity.
I write as quiet as the Dew
Accustomed then, to my private
Flower, in an accustomed inner-realm
Where I am a fictive dream
But a symbol on a page
Once white, now transparent blooms!
My words drop as softly as the stars
In less skillful melodies than before
Sorer to believe that I have a gift
The Bee of mantras is not afraid of me:
I know the Butterfly’s secret stanza-home
I race to silent woods cordially
With Brooks that laugh louder
Than the forgotten rhymes of time
I write as quiet as the Stream
Who sings of madder breezes at play
For we can only create natural things
Even in our Olympics of alphabets
Better to be a writer, than an actor on the stage –
I relate better to neighbors imaginary
Than the marketplace of the dead.

I pressed your dawns
Smooth open like marble
Touching your secret tunnels
Like the moisture of gold
with night-eyes hungered
For the fragrance
Of other strange worlds
I left the waters of childhood
For the earth-last lust
Of the home-star, Sol
The wind interrogated me
With the fire-blue sense
Of the open skies
I kissed the stone like
Autumn gardens
And hinted at the blooms
Of the clothes of our roots
The thicket of passion
Where ferocious intelligence
Seared a road across the impossible
I pushed sunsets until
The earths shock
My opportunity was a brief
Window of selfish centuries
Foam covered mornings
Which fled as fast as finite things
As the hips of your dark
Familiar clay fell back into the earth
I understood love, only
By the filter of time’s volcanoes
The moist half-open darkness
Of the brutal law of stars
Like a floating haiku
Of drifting kissing potential.

From the door of stars
We fumbled for our future
As the silence of the ocean
Rolled against our tears
I laughed a wooden laugh
For the Earth that renews all
My hand a trembling care
Of Springs immemorial
My dazzled face
Caressed last hope
My daughter diviner been
When Acts and Will are done
Heaven must come one day
From the gate of music strewn
To melodies of other homes
Good news is given
From the minds of custodians
We leave behind petals of the Rose
For stranger Neptunes
With our computer ghosts
Quantum chariots of Immortality.
By Chivalries as tiny
With kindnesses so glum
And whistles of heart
Invisible as blossoms
In the dark, I bid thee
The traffic of fools
As errors make us laugh
And give life her charm
Do not be afraid
To make a mess
For Paradise requires sacrifice
A moat of pearls, to risk
The ironies full-speed
Fairer than fading
In mute withdrawal!
By chivalries so tiny
Of passions as free
Teasing the glittering
Of another day reborn
Give your eyes to others
With an unbidden smile
And electric of the heart
Shiny as the rarest buds.
I’ve learned art by poverty
In Meagre famine
This cup of spirituality
Acquired in reverse
With troubled questions
Explored undiscovered
Continents, no settler
Had in mind –
I’ve learned time by
Glowing years of Hands
Made empty, dust
Did scoop itself
In my loving eyes
Until waters wrecked
The skies, and leaves
Did hurry slow
To the royal regard
Of Angel scars.
My soul accused me
Of a diamond tongue
That but only lingered
Between the royal stars
All else accused me
And thus I learned to smile –
A finger lifted of spirit
As clear as enamelled Fire
With wings of supernova
Carrying birth with light speed
And leaving a mark of poetry
For the absolute disdain of time.
