Dreaming

Leaping

June 11, 201822 Comments

Suited and booted I was. Top of my game and driving a fast car. Selling my soul for the price of making it. Big bucks and sadness on tap. It wasn't supposed to be like this at the top. The brochure looked much nicer than the reality. Slave to the machine. Walking away to follow … Continue reading Leaping

Whispers of Walden

May 15, 20187 Comments

warm orange early morning sun wraps itself around one side of the birch trees who bathe blissfully in it's embrace outside my cabin.

stand barefoot in the warm earth point your fingers to your heart and allow the w(hole) universe to flow in fill yourself with galaxies of love which tingle and explode into goosebumps as tiny planets on the skin-surface of you   reminded of the unity of it all in a moment we fall into that … Continue reading how to make magic: part ii

saccharin smiles and neatly brushed hair angelic smiles force fed by demonic parents one for the album of all that you see but me this isn't the kind of doctor you wished for unfurling that which you wished to cage as spirals of thought spill from the axis of normal flowering from oppression's compost garden is … Continue reading s(elf)

Come the Light

December 21, 201710 Comments

Tree Spirit

September 4, 2017October 22, 201736 Comments

Kissing the sky with my mind I sit quietly and stare at the changeling, as she opens. The old beech tree standing there singing in the corner of the field. She is so beautiful, wise, matriarchal in her stature and I love her. There is a deep connection here that always opens up in me … Continue reading Tree Spirit
