“Sometimes the beauty is easy. Sometimes you don’t have to try at all. Sometimes you can hear the wind blow in a handshake. Sometimes there’s poetry written right on the bathroom wall.” Ani Difranco (American Singer, Song Writer and Guitarist. b.1970)
“In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it’s the exact opposite.” Paul Dirac (English theoretical physicist, 1902-1984)
I’m a Believer Re-Write (Human Rights) By DonJuan Writer
I thought rights were just the stuff of fairy tails, Meant for war torn souls but not for me, I was such a cynic, That’s the way it seems, Violations haunted all my dreams But the human race, Can be a believer, It has a place, I’ve no doubt in my mind, But it must love It can be a believer, But it can be a diva, I tell no lie. I thought folk were more or less, bullshitting me, That their claims to care were just skin deep, Why do they all bother, To try to lie to me?… Seek More
Nothing Permanent Lasts Forever by DonJuan Writer
By all means have audacity, By all means show your wit, And if you’ve got the gumption, By all means handle it. By all means stroke your ego, By all means elevate, By all means duck and cover, When they come to legislate. If flights of sycophancy, Leave you under someone else’s charms, By all means see your actions, And recognise your qualms. For this human interaction, Is by all means ebb and flow, Every focus is a distraction, From everything else you could know.

Dinner Table by DonJuan Writer
To see the world this poem implies, May I ask you to close your eyes? Now, imagine, as you are able, A rather large dinner table. And sitting at it is everyone you know, And everyone you used to know. Yes, it’s a very implausibly large table, But this is a mind fable… Everyone you know, And everyone you used to know. Now, it’s true, There will be a lot of dishes to do, But for now we’ll look at everyone here, Some are on wine, some water, some beer. The kids are content with the meal, The old ones… Seek More
Post-traumatic Nihilism by DonJuan Writer
Yeah, so I’ve worked out the pointless, purposeless, meaninglessness of nihilism And the implications of what pointless, purposeless, meaninglessness implies, It places any certain logic, thus consequences, in an arena of surrealism, On me, As yet, Still no flies.

Zombie Dream by DonJuan Writer
The zombie terror pursuing me, In the black sheen of my lucid dream, My fears of impending fatherhood, Raise the un-dead to strip me of any scheme. And the recurring nature of their chase, Whenever I closed my eyes, As real as the fears I had to face, They will devour any disguise. With each dream the tension was tightened, From out to in to labyrinthine spaces, The visual of the deaths of others, My terror in their faces. But I learned how to defeat my hordes, For I knew they were a manifest me, I could switch to calmness… Seek More
the tree by Helenka Campbell
Like a tree Rooted and simply being outstretched to feel the wind and sun Happiness requires no effort It simply means opening your heart to what is in front of you Simple moments of joy and the true meaning of Love The tree is in harmony existing as part of the oneness lovingly providing treasures asking nothing in return In the quietness Seek your heart Respond with gentleness And find your harmony For within Gratitude Abundance is created Prosperity is born And Life is blissful..

shadows by Helenka Campbell
Spidery web of lies deceit and fear gathered in cold hallowed darkness tucked deep within my soul And so I called upon the Angels to spread their wings of Light Purifying the luridness with Love’s sweet promises So they came… Lovingly embracing All of the haunting echoes of hurt, sadness, mistrust Creating a Divine place for new beginnings New Promises of joyous life breaking the chaos of old Guiding me to open my heart Receiving clarity A time of unbound unity Closing the circle Grasping the ring of Love letting it’s essence fill me Destroyed the shadows where fear resides… Seek More
Poetry by Robert Gresak
IMMORTAL SOUL The fearless ones find day in night and in themselves the deathless light. In flower, bird and butterfly, in love, thus dying, do not die. ANGELIC HOME Star originated soul, star originated soul so deeply bright, so deeply bright buried so deep from reasons sight; I cry, cry, I yearn for the touch of your heavenly might, to know once again that ancient cosmic light. THE PIONEERS ‘Tis only the daring and the bold who seek to change the mould of strangling conventionality, who are willing and able to bring to life that which was long ago foretold.… Seek More
Ascend to Light by Robert Gresak
The sands of time run through the hourglass the ages and years swiftly pass and men and women, some slow, some fast progress from class to class on life’s evolving stage. Again the age of Aquarius has rolled around, the age of man is once more found. Arise, arise my brothers and be no more bound by the lower-reach up to the higher, reach up and grasp the hand of the water carrier who waits in yearning for you, to fill you with light and loves cosmic view. Can you not hear the music of the spheres at play? ‘Tis… Seek More
Light Of The Ages by Robert Gresak
The light of the ages shone through untold sages to light the way for men in great darkness left, to light the way for men bereft of all comfort, all hope. The light of the ages now saturates the pages of the book of the soul even as that darkness, in vein, rages. The light of the ages now fully and completely stages the global play of love and lasting peace to win. See now the grand drama of ascension.
