Animus

My mind's eye shows me the archetype
Stoic, wise, quiet—the cure.
Allowing me to lead the way
Why I fear him, I am not sure.

I embrace him in my dreams,
Entwine our hands and limbs
I explore the landscape of his being
He quietly allows my human whims.

I like him
I ask him questions
I amuse him
He asks me no questions

If I listen, he gives me answers
If I remember to be aware
I see the me
That my animus is
Free

I will embrace this gentle giant
I know not what it is I fear
He isn't mean or cruel or angry
He is a man I am happy to be near.

He shelters me from others
He allows me to lead the way
I know now he is the sun
My animus, my protector, my Day.

I wonder how to show him that I'm ready to be one?
I wonder how I show him the work that I have done?

I invite him to speak up

Give me words and actions and thoughts
Marry the Moon and Sun.
No longer all alone
Time to be All One.

Come to me Apollo.
Reside inside my air.
I pray to be united
An end to the sweet pair.
Come to my Apollo
I beg of you to live
Inside the sea of me
My reluctance please forgive

I know not what I do

To shun a part of me
Makes no sense

I choose wholeness
I choose wholeness
I choose wholeness

Unite

Come to me
I forgive myself my reluctance

I know not what I do

To shun a part of me
Makes no sense

I choose wholeness
I choose wholeness
I choose wholeness

Unite

I come to you.



Time

Time! What are you doing in my chest?
Get out! Your ticking has confused me.
Your ticking has silenced my heart!
No longer.
I unwind you.
I remove your numbers from your face.
I take the arrows and use them to pierce the lie you have told humanity.
Puncture.
Dissolve.
A mystery I solve.
I Am a sign of a brand new time.
It doesn’t tick or tock.

Hickory Dickery Dock
The mouse ran up the clock
The Clock struck One
And Down he run
hickory
Dickery
Dock

Hickory
Dickery
Dock
I dismantle the clock
I smash the face with a rock
I bend the hands of time
I demand and live a new rhyme
I uncover the forsaken’s crime
And fashion a new way to be
Every breath a Now moment
We’re free

The numbers evaporate into the ether
The hypnotic tick tock goes away
In the silence I hear an old whisper
Exit and Exist
night fuses with day.
Clasp hands and celebrate the Way
In our dreams, we find what we pray

Is it the calendar that led us astray?
Have we captured ourselves?
Are we our own Stonehenge?
Have we fabricated our own decay
By delineating night from the day?

Time! Time.
You have served a purpose,
But I give you notice
Your lifespan ends right Now
For you have spun a pretty lie
That I with authority disavow
You will not stamp my ticket
Or dictate a thing called age
You will not line my face
Or put to sleep my inner sage.

I Am the rainbow bridge.
I unite the day and night.
I untie the knot of time
I walk the dreamscape without impunity
With every step I foster unity
I may have been born on the shortest day
But it reminds me that the dreams of sleep
Are bigger than the lies of time
Exit and Exist
Allow
Your heart hurts
I will heal it
I burn the sands of time
They become my looking glass
I am free.


The Redeeming Blood of Christ

My feet pound the pavement

I trudge on the lonely road

I remember Jesus’s payment

My heavy heart carries the load

I feel it even now

As I write this

Poor, stressed out organ

How you beat

And I wonder at the people who can’t feel

But are ever ready to lay their sins at Jesus’s feet

Get up! Lazy wretches! Time to walk!

Time to feel! Time to Live!

Heal the Heel!

Do you cling to the myth that Jesus saved you?

You are Him, take a step, become the meal!

The power of the Eucharist has been forgotten

The wine that you drink is your own blood!

I wonder how the ritual became so distorted

Who is benefitting from the story of the flood?

Tap in to the you that still remembers

The Glory of the Only One you could Be

Wake up your sinew and your atoms

Unlock the truth that proclaims YOU the mystery!

Perhaps I Am tired of the apathy

Perhaps I Am confounded by the lack of sight

Perhaps I Am claiming back my power

For every Being who has forgotten they are Light!

Awaken! Hearken! Rememember!

You are a Living Sign!

One Man’s Dying and Rising,

Proves that you too are the Bread and the Wine!

Take back your Power

They can not have it!

I say it with Authority

It is so!

If I’ve met your eye in life or dream

You now remember

And no longer fear any foe.

If God is for you,

Who could be against you?

Revisit the old proverbs with a new eye.

When the last of you wakes up to your Divine Potential,

No longer will the ones who came to wake you have to die.

Will you continue to crucify your saviours?

Is that the role you really want to play?

Hypocrites! Weak and lazy sinners?

Does that really resonate and have the power to sway?

Dare to believe you are powerful.

Exactly who and what you were always meant to be.

The Pollyanna in me remembers a way of Being

And she is here to awaken the truth of the Three.


You are worthy of change, humans!

You are worthy of change!!!

My heart aches, my heart aches, my heart aches.

I smash your chains,

I smash your chains,

I smash your chains.


If I could jump into your cells, I would remake them. 

But the key to your prison

Lies in your heart.

So I sew another punctured spirit

I pull the patches 

And begin back at the start.


And if I wonder what I’m doing here

I will forgive me

I answered a cosmic call

It is time to awaken every spirit

It is time to be who we were before the fall.




Silence

 Silence calls to me

Wasted words do harm

Talking heads upset my heart

I seek a silent charm.


Echoes of remorse live inside me

I seek the root but find no source

Am I the culprit of the feeling?

Have I unknowingly altered course?


Or am I traveling the straight and narrow

On the high road where I wish to be

My heart and throat signal unalignment

I wish to be the best of me


So I will sit in my discomfort

Unsure again of the when or why

If I am not reaching my potential

I patiently await a brand new eye


And with this eye I may see more clearly

Or with this eye new truths may be revealed

Or with this eye love may be my life-blood

Or with this eye even more may be concealed


An ache in the heart is a good thing

It speaks of a truth that once hides

A story was told

A life that was sold

For comfort that tricks and derides

Choose to foster some love there

Declare a bright future day

Being able to rest in emotion

Is proof that you Are the Way


I must remember that I Am not guilty

I must believe that my desire to do no harm is the key

I must remember that intention is everything

I must remember that I am more than just Me

I must remember that the puzzle is in motion

I must trust that the pieces know their place

I must try to live in my heart

And make space for the whole human race


I came to hold God’s people in my heart

I can be the ALL

I can

There is room enough in my heart for those who cannot remember their divinity

I Am a vessel for those lost in the dream

I make more room and allow more in

I accept all hearts who have been tricked by the message of Sin

Pain is not a sin

Disappointment is not a sin

Despair is not a sin

Grief is not a sin

Worry is not a sin

Disbelief is not a sin

We are not failing, my People!

We are not wrong or perverse!

We are simply living in a foggy understanding

Believing our humanity is a curse. 

Weakness is our strength.

Open up—feel.

Release the curse of judgment.

It is time to be your own meal.

You are the bread and the wine

Made of the night and the day

You are the same as the stars

Your bones the roadmap and the Way.


Breathe.

Breathe.

Be still.

Rest.

Dream.

Dream.

Rest.

Wait.


You do not know the date, but I tell you it is near.

You do not know the date, but I say you are a Seer.


The time is here for the harvesting.

The gathering store into barns.

The harvest is plenty.

Laborers are few.

Come with me into the fields.

Your arms may grow weary.

Your shoes will wear thin.

Come with me into the fields.


Authentic Me


Dash away the cobwebs
Clear away debris
Unveil Authentic Karen
Show her face to me

She can only be offended
By mismatched tongue and heart
When that propensity lives within her
True and false must break apart

Burn away the one who thinks
She isn’t enough as she is
Gust away the one
Who still believes in sin

The only flaw in her is the one she can’t embrace
She must look into the mirror and accept each and every face
Sink into me, transform me, help me to remember
I Am the baby born on the 21st day of December
My innocence is my perfection
My soul untarnished and sin free
I release the habits of the world
I come back to the One I was always meant to be

Sing to me Apollo
I sink into your tune
I lay my body on top of yours
And form in my new cocoon

I mourn for those trapped in the smoke
I came down for the ones tricked by the mirrors
I invoke the Blood of the Lamb
I awake the powerful, archaic Seers

I look the slavers in the eye
I do not fear you
Nor do I hate you
You too are not free
I came not only for the chattle
But for the ones who trapped Essence
And lived off energy
You have had your place in this story
And now is your exit, your fall
But your God has still not forsaken you
You are embraced in the perfection of the All

Thought

Drum your dreams

Pulsate your passion

The rhythm of thought retreats and refashions


Look to the wildlife

Soak in their song

Wisdom and majesty resound in the throng


The circus of life 

Has order and rules

The performer forgets that earth is a school


Lay down your head 

Connect with the wise

The makers of costumes hint to the prize


The idea that this can all be a game

Ordered and structured with a plan and an aim

Is hard for the human to believe and to care

The world has taught her that magic is rare


Meet the eyes of the people

Listen with focus

Connection is real, fear Hocus Pocus


Punch the liars with fists strengthened in love

You are the very one you pray to Above

He calls you to remember you are made of His bone

The Creator of All in every vibration and tone

Let go of judgement

Release lack, release fear

Rename the Sinner

See yourself in the Mirror.
