night and day
oh how
seasons pass …..
and experiences
are had
life’s expectations
its fulfilments
are weighed for value
then consideration given
as to the measure
of a life well lived
hopefully so
before the light that burns
the fire within …..
its final glow
becomes extinguished
where only
the memory of a life
remains for the living
all who care to sustain
the worth of its recollection
~peace out~

moon and stars
when young ~
the early years
I gazed longingly
up at the moon and stars
far away
and day dreamed
about my future
what I
hoped to accomplish
while alive in NATURE ~
now older ~
the seasoned years
I gaze longingly
up at the moon and stars
and think
I have journeyed afar
but not far enough
still the heavens
NATURE’S full glory
I have not reached ~
though aged ~
and death calls
ominously
to say
~ be there soon
my willful spirit
which pumps
through my veins
as far as
hopes and dreams
are still
very much
young of heart
even though ~
in spite of
how far
how much time
it may seem
I have left to go ~
as I gaze longingly
up at the moon and stars
~peace out~

my swagger
I am a HUMAN
CONSCIOUS BEING (HCB)
simple and everyday
maybe so
but as the INDIVIDUAL (I)
I strive to be original
and creative
yet innately
I know the value
of humility
its role
midst the flaws
of my HUMAN
imperfection
inherent seemingly
from this somewhat
imperfect SOURCE
that appears creatively
somewhat imperfect
as well
I am a (HCB)
simple and everyday
maybe so
in all humility ……
regardless
of my individuality
and the rumors
that follow
my swagger

wings of imagination
on the wings
of imagination
I have reinvented
my-SELF
countless times
while
I’ve wrestled
with boredom’s
stagnation

I’ve got this voice
I’ve got this voice
that beckons
to be heard
yet
its message
is drowned out
by the torrent
of
everyday chatter
and gossip
lost in the madness
of
the popular
and entertaining
topic or news …..
buried
ever so quickly
in the minutia
of the
social media
text box
regardless
I’ve got this voice
that beckons
to be heard
just saying …..
peace out

life as a spiritual empathy intuit
my eyes are…..
wide open
when it comes to
the journey
called life
with all 5 senses
and even the 6th
life’s allurements
entice
my attention
the good
the ok
the bad
and the ugly
I learn living
to the full
through
reflexive thinking
and reflective thinking
from the heart
how emotionally
intense ~ intuit
my lived experience
is my
individualized
mission
that has become
my vision
it seems at times
my eyes are…..
wide open
when it comes to
the journey
called life ~
a life
of mystic
philosophy
a life
as a spiritual
empathy
intuit

a message about freedom
you gotta fight
like HELL
for freedom
with your blood ~
sweat and tears
’cause
no one is gonna
hand it to you
and
when you think
you’ve got it
you will learn
it ain’t perfect
nor set in stone
or guaranteed
to keep it …..
you gotta fight
like HELL
for freedom
with your blood ~
sweat and tears
’cause
each
and every DAY
you are
fortunate enough
to take a breath
of it …..
someone
or something
will want
to take it away
a message about freedom
peace out ~

PRO-HUMAN path
it is not as important to me
that others understand
everything about me ~
my intelligently progressive
observations
about the lived experience
called life
through the lens
of my MYSTIC PHILOSOPHY ….
it is important to me
that others know
that I took the time
to stand in their shoes
tried to see the world
from their perspective
about the LIVING of a life
as a HUMAN …..
that I believed in
~ setting
the example
by not being
overly consumed
with finger pointing
and the judging of others
about their failures …..
but rather
I’ve chosen
the most productive ~
NATURALLY INHERENT
PRO-HUMAN path
through the heartfelt
embracement
of UNCONDITIONAL LOVE
as the greatest force
with its patience
and tolerance
for bringing about change
that’s beneficial
to the ongoing SURVIVAL
of the HUMAN-KIND ~
COOPERATELY ADAPTIVE
SURVIVAL
experienced through
the lens ~
observations
of the INDIVIDUAL
along with
a SPIRITUAL felt sense
~ yes
SURVIVAL being
the HUMAN species
PURPOSE
as a participant
in a WHOLE SYSTEM
called NATURE
peace out ~

the full range of Jennifer Nettles voice …..
there are days …..
I feel like an extraterrestrial
that dwells in a human body
one made of
everyday
flesh and bone ~
I empathically feel
at times
the pain
of the world
~ its struggle to survive
~ its ups and downs
whatever the form
life may manifest itself
’cause of this ……
I feel the throes of
depression
throughout
my not more than average
and spiritual being ~
this is a burden
I feel
I must carry
to experience
and come to know life
the way I have
the way I do
life to its fullest extent ~
seemingly
I feel
all of it
kinda like a Heyoka
~ experiencing
the full range
of Jennifer Nettles
voice …….
when she’s signing
the song
“Tonight”
peace out ~

old codger minimalist

old codger minimalist
that’s me
the older and older
I become
the less and less I need
let the younger ones use it
in a prudent
and resourceful manner
so their offspring
can have a bright future
and eventually become
this old codger minimalist
like me
peace out ~
