Timing Is Not A Lie
by azraw
© January 1999
When I first looked into your eyes
I knew this was not very wise
Time and distance you needed
In your hour alone
To choose your life
I've been waiting
so long for you
Perhaps I'm a fool
or just maybe you're a jewel
but these five words you gave to me.
The body is a materialistic
essence of
transcended light
that a liberal spiritualist
realizes
as a ballet dance
swirling separateness
into a fusion
like a synapse
of such quietness
you can hear
the earth turn
and remember
a herding consciousness
when we used to be one.
I am living in the Christ consciousness now
a place that got separated
into ego
I have been alone
for a longer time than you
in introspection
And I learned here to open
Surrender
And trust my life
To Be.
I am ready for you to kiss
and swirl us higher
outside our bodies
we won't be making babies
to a silence
you've longed for
A place I already adore
the new consciousness
where you can be alone
together
kiss me from within
And ride with me
into the winds.

Some haiku for you
To savor or gormandize
That is the question
Your prowess to love
Like the serene halcyon
Able to ponder
My lucubrations
Digest manna in a quest
Of intensities
A yin to a yang
Cross-purpose connections, choose
Soul has no senses
More haiku for you
Arcane, esoteric
Such contemplation
Your forte profound
Like the riddles of the Sphinx
So hard to answer
When souls are labyrinths
Recondite and veiled
How can we complete
Without the gurus
Could we have realizations
Could we all transcend
Is it the wonder
That plenary consumates
Crowning God in all

A Russian And A Fish

The freedom to love
Never needed your permission.
It was my heart in remission...
The Goddess of hiding
Found me to discover.
And now before me
Another success
A Russian and a Fish.
Exquisite and Holy
Seems your introspection.
So freely
I have watched you give
Your beauty within
To us without.
Two can love
As one
Without a doubt
Creative ever more,
Separate,
And rest without fear
When the Russian
Is a Goddess
And so is the Fish...

They Don't Need Us Anymore

While you
Danced
With your piano,
My mind
Drifted
And words waltzed,
Forming
Before my eyes
I love us...
I saw
Photographs...
Whites on black
Though...
Spiraling,
Surrounding me
Singing to me
Singing from you
Singing us true...
Like the poetry
In your rosemauling
Wisping of rhymes...

Always Dancing

The Goddess of Emotion
Visualized
Realized
And wove
A script for us.
Singing her song
The Goddess is alive
Began with a dream
Which is up to us to feel.
She coaxes,
She beckons...
Come and love
Leave the misery---
Let go, go far and see
Why, why, why...
The lights swirl...
Melting and fusion-
A synapse,
You dance.
I listen and watch
Round and round,
Your point of view
A ballet
Easy,
Slowly, follow...
Only one
Is guiding us...
You touch me from within...

Oh Pristine Smile
by azraw

If one in a hundred
Can only see the outer form
Do not forlorn.
Appreciation of art
Is a splendid array...
If one in a thousand
Can look into your face
Deeply within your eyes
They will realize
Their life reflects such grace...
And if one in a million
Can see the white light
Your life has been right.
Thy power enters the very pores of life.
In letting go you bestow all of your glow...
Silver rays of speaking silence
Break our feelings and show thy face of love.
All things of earth and heaven declare
Aum, aum resounding everywhere
Bringing me whispers from eternity.
