Poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen. – Leonardo da Vinci
I am creating an entirely new type of poetry. Poetry illuminates my life with tints of stardust. I hope you enjoy my new genre of poetry. There’s more to come.
Poem 01
[Real generosity towards the future lies in giving all to the present – Albert Camus]
Impermanent mortal bodies sheathing transitory life
Are but astral ephemeron
Borrowed from infinity for short-term use
[… The paragon of animals…the quintessence of dust… ]
Oh sacred children born from Eternity
Whose souls can manifest immutable love
But instead are desperate to resist annihilation through acquisitions
Clamor for the past
Claw at the veil of mortality as it slips away
Howling whirlwinds of oblivion
Reduce all to evanescent dust in the end
Remember: You didn’t come into this world / You came out of this world
Recall: You didn’t awaken inthis world / You are awakened by this world
Realize: Spinning outward dissipates/ Turning inward accumulates
Recognize: Our minds’ are the pivots of perception
[Ukeireru – The art of acceptance through awareness of the self and others. The potential for change grows when one accepts reality]
[May you live every day of your life. – Jonathan Swift]
The soul’s liberation
Flows from acceptance
Embrace impermanence
Change forever
