Fundamentalism Is it a fundamental notion, that life can be, without a god. Is it to cry up at the sky, of our intent to dwell into eternity then to draw savage blades down through forever scream shattered air, toppling towers. Is it a fundamental notion, that our children should grow up unbroken, by god looking on and saying nothing doing less than hell would have you remain a father, figure stretching all that's wrong, to the rite - passing on a world of fright, a path forever falling ...

A grey mist When faith wanes, that the world is there. When life threatens to slip away within. There is a crack upon the ground, should you ever fall - a split in the fine veil of skin between head, bone and brain. We know these things as facts, yet increasingly distant seems reality, when we dare not scream out, about life - in our dreams. It is a thundering, foul weather - a cloud that reaching up, may display it's dark underbelly, boiling with rage and killing the horizon. There is no ...

OP I left for there, then left for here with an idea that I hold dear. An open page to capture meanings, dreamings - everything and nothing. A turning, leafing, gentle freedom, to learn of seeing without believing. A dreary world of nothing lost, robust for being of no real cost. It worked and whirred, across the answers - without question. Until it asked for nothing more, by holding on with tooth and claw - to what it was to be. That savage task, of asking, please for more was rasping, and ...

Narrow wheels cast a net across the sands of times we have not seen for the freedom of our minds to rest and rhyme with fallen leaves a world revolving keeps on turning with narrow wheels upon the ground while the heavy hands of man are blurring skies, burning lives faintly swerving, but are we so deserving, of all the cargo we can carry? so hastily the narrow lines are swept up around the wide wheels of our machines - that drive us too, that supply our food so are we all to blame for ...

Limit Encased within, several intersecting lines of tension limit me to an arc of movement emotionally ballpointed; scraping at the paper while in reaching out across the surfaces of times I would rather rejoice, but stab forcefully folds together one crumpled ball of defeat. Edging towards the flower. A taste so violently sweet of pen and of ink, of purpose reworked and worthy of notice. Of intention to chase reward for the sake of reward in that new face, I throw the forgotten lines of ...

Skeptical I believe in magic, but know it now - with no fewer sparkles and heady delight - as reality. All delusion of intention in the stars, is as nothing compared to what they really are. We are built of one. Our own atoms a part of it, orbiting it, destined to an ultimate end in it and beyond it. What we make of it - as impossibly it's only ever witness - is wonder. Fear and thunder draw a thief to our beliefs in understanding, shaken and taken by night. Waking up. A realisation a ...

Beyond us. Quantum Physics, fostering two steps, away from the blind of the blur of the mind. A particle, article, wave while apart across spaces and places in time outside mine, a joining adjoining, work without worlds of a whirling fabric, of space and of time unshared, but rapid rhythms of distances blistering to the listening. Outside quenches the inside, whirlpool dropping words torn into mysteries meaning less than the oceans abounding to the call crushing negativity, with positivity ...

Storms of change I know what in time will come to hurt, is strength and purpose gone before their worth. Alone. In realising this at heart, it all feels pointless - the beating out of pathways through many networked veins. A cowardly face, retained and trained to bravely fade away. Remains. Casting back our value is such a fleeting memorial - to pay for more, escape. Esc. Simply to chase down, around and drown in our own escapism, our entertainment prison? Division, comes when we take ...

Pray We had a lovely gentle chat today, about being unknowingly led to pray. "You have to put your hands together, hold them up like this. Say thank you, to ..a mystified look.. for the food we eat." My son is only four, he does not properly know how to say the word 'God' or 'Lord' let alone know what it means - why ever should he know? I say to him as he shows to me, it is just a thing you do in school, a quiet time. A time to join in, but to think for yourself. Take that time, as I used to ...

Life Lover Loving the solitude, loving the clarity, the vision the stark reality of a world unbound by any sense of purity, but creating it constantly by tooth and by claw. Save me from your fears. Remove your foul of reality - a goldfish alone in a perfectly clear bowl, in a world of nothing but endless white. I take no delight in your blindness. Open your eyes, and see the world's wonders, then wonder again at the "How?" and the "Why?", knowing that what little you may ever know will never ...
