BROKEN HEART You broke my heart And threw it on the rocks Dashed by the waves of the ocean Now I look outside my window And see the green green grass And solitary yellow flowers Shaking in the breeze Alone am I now Like a warrior once more With nothing but my actions And snake like memories of you Writhing under his repulsive hands Your big breasts naked Staring at his ravenous eyes I sit here and think of our beautiful intimacies Now ravaged like a brutal war Love shall not be the same again When years of children playing And making sweet cardamom tea in the morning Disappear in an instant What is love? Life in its glorious beauty surrounds me I suckle her and sleep With her in my dreams Confused, bright, mangled images Pouring through my mind like a deluge I love once more Again my heart fills with pain My eyes brim forth with tears I want to cry again How it cries You who I love Once again passes me by Oh how I long For someone to love me too Oh, my heart fills with tears Crying for you Alas the good times we shared Were fleeting and so short I cry for you once more Why am I shut off From a true love? Look at old people And those with no legs The callous world just passes them by Who will they wed? |

ORGINIAL SIN
Naked of illusions About my life and worry I see the hospital With the sick and wounded Lying in white rooms Some with kin And some with none The morning appears In the heat As poor people With mundane lives Squat by the fire And drink their tea The masses start their daily rush The crippled beggar on the street Makes my pains seem insignificant Suddenly My hardness and obstinacy vanishes I feel like a mote on the ocean Transient Wafting this way and that With the breeze My power is my ego That can be broken Humility, fluidity, silence, Calm, peace, potential Brimming over with virtue The magnetizing force This is my way now The way of flailing arms And dancing body Action swift But surrendered A perfect machine dancing With the soul of the universe My sticking points are loosening A little abstinence From smoke and alcohol Impure wind and water Just pure breath And pure water The fire of exercise The space of meditation And I am a transforming being No longer human Life's hard knocks Knock my faults And weaknesses from me Shell shocked Am I Free Always free To feel the breeze I will not regress I will not will Surrendered Let me stay pure And not regress I sleep at the feet of the universe Suckling pure ecstasy. |
