On The Line

bobguyer — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 20:23:28 +0000

Thank you causal agents And line combatants I thank my ignorance My participation in the line dance Of our combat

The tearing apart has left a hole For the tiny seed of wisdom To find soil in which to root Brothers and sisters of the fight We toil in vain

There is no start to our problem The line on which we fight Is drawn not in [...]

Starting Point

There is no starting point Now I can dance The ceaseless dance The spinning and choosing The moving and being moved There is no starting point Now I can dance

Spider and Windshield

I saw a spider on my windshield just the other day I watched him struggle to stay on as I drove away At first the spider slowed, it moved a whole lot less It stopped and stayed real still, the gas my foot did press I could not tell from its eyes what was on its mind Faster I did [...]

I just want what Buddha had

I just want what Buddha had A nice, hot, mom, and a rich ass dad and something that’s missing and hurting real bad

I just want to do what Buddha did To sit by a tree till the truth is unhid To take a cool raft to the other shore Then tell the cool raft I don’t need you no more

I’m [...]

Wholeness Affirmation

I am a Physical Presence

My mind and body are Unified

Every instant of my being

Each day is my birthday

Each moment, my birth moment

No longer searching For the parts I have found them The little boy Lost and found

Part of me That had to stop Crying Had to make A new self New life Has finally gotten What he needed Now we are Whole Inner battle Turned to inner Cooperation

Then a quest Within And without To find Lost self Lost source We have Succeeded

I can now hear The birds Who always sing Their song In the morning A different way

I hear their Pattern The variety Complexity Richness Individuality The form Of Their song

It is [...]

Our DNA flows In the river of time Branching new streams Off older ones

Following fertile soils Across the world Back to Africa When a small tribe Of humans Chance and choice Foot and hand Imagination and invention Lead to our great Collective journey The river of time Moves forward Carrying the genes Of individuals Past, present And future We branch, change Separate and [...]

I hope writing Survives Reading too

I hope children Find a place To grow Plants too

I hope water Survives For the living Ebb and Flow Through Cell walls

I hope we Stop Eating time Faster Than it lives us

Blank… Like We are Part of the Planet

I want to

Eat like I’m part of the Planet

Drink like I’m part of the Planet

Feel like I’m part of the Planet

Touch like I’m part of the Planet

Think like I’m part of the Planet

See like I’m part of the Planet

Breathe like I’m part of the Planet

Work like I’m part of the Planet

Raise my kids like I’m [...]
