LIGHT ARROW SLIVERS



When the Spirit Wind shivers

the great flowing river

.. light arrow slivers

from the sun's endless quiver



.. are

revealed



and then reveiled

and  revealed



as the saint's

powers.. come from God







666



In 6th month is the most light

6th day is sweet Friday

6 tips has David's Star

Shanmukanatha means

6 faced son of Ishwar





3 couples is 6 eyes

In evening's 6th hour

they go

to their hearths of home

6 is 9 upside down

6 the phone code of Rome



Godly folk live on 6th st.

Whether you'd rather go

toward or away

from DC

Rt 66 will take you there



Hexagons make better tiles

than triangles or squares



6th chakras are third eyes

6 points for a touchdown

6th hour is sunrise



6 is a holy number

like all those God has formed

And it is often the month

when kind cancers.. are born

DIAMONDS MADE BY DUCKS



In the glass surfaced pond

the water trails

made by their paddling

feet beneath ducks' bright tails



churn up diamonds

so bright with the rising sun



Angels of God protect them

all from blinds in which

wait crouching guns



WE BOW TO GOD WITHIN YOU



a peace so deep each can let go

A detaching which helps.. all to flow

a magnet so intense to it all align

a light so bright that all see its shine

a vacuum of such power.. it draws everyone

a silence so profound within it GOD resounds

a Himalayan pure so high that all see its peak

a love so great every heart does it seek



LIGHT



There is an unquenchable blazing

eternal omnipotent light

in every Vietnamese Nigerian

Palestinian and Israelite



WORKAHOLIC BLACK WIDOW



The Black Widow

does more spinning

than any called

spinsters.

Yet she too will be Goddrawn

as Isaiah has said.



BIRD COMMUNION



When the priest came to

give my loved one

communion, I wondered

if I could have the

courage of Joan

and distribute communion

to the dogs and cats..



I looked out the window

and there God had

provided bread crumbs

for the birds, as they

too received Her manna

communion.



(to the founder of Animal

Rights Ministries)



METROPOLITAN SYMPHONY



The fast food executive

on the board of the metropolitan

symphony turns staccato

slaughterhouse shrieks

into gold and then

into music.



The dairy executive

turns mother cow screams

into gelatinous dioxinfilled

ice cream.



Though it has more smoke

the pig lard candle's

light is qualitatively

the same as that of

pectin candles..

both can a dark room

ignite.



Yet does God ask us

to buy the purest, the

gentlest, the best,

the simplest.



COMPASS ENCOMPASSED



The needle by compassion

magnetized

out of the haystack..

of confusion is

placed on a leaf

of detachment

.. floats and slowly

turns

.. pointing North



so love-encompassed

is the compass..

all directions

point North





(to David Mamet, screenwriter

for The Edge)



UNRIPENESS IS PERFECTION





The fruit sour today

will be sweet in September.

The popcorn which

did popoff not

will burst in splendor

over new embers.

The snow which walls

us in

will nurse new flowers

ere another December.



CIRCUMSCRIBED RAINDROPS





The creek quietly

and visibly

circumscribes

each place

where a raindrop

fell



as angels who

make mistakes

in falling

cause earth to rise



LAURA

No dark fedora
could hide the aura
of incandescent Laura
It flows and merges
with rising Aurora

ALL ARE BAPTIZED BY SPIRIT



   The waters of the fountain of the

   baptism of love are inside all

The flames of the hearth

of baptism by fire are inside all.



Who besides a snake can swim in the grass?

*

Sooner or later even Satan's minions are beyond duality

opinions lifted by Love's universal pinions.

*

A playing boy's discarded stick became the father heron's

beakborn gift... for their nest a new twig ...

the rejected stumbling block.. to the temple's

cornerstone he lifts

*

Said the mother fly to the gay teen... long before they called

you a queer, a faggot... they called my children little maggots

*

Call no demon names. Focus on his divine core. See the gold

within his ore.
