The Recurrence of the Wheel
Where is there to begin,
if not from where the last did end.
Toil not from fruit or feed
but to boil in this hell indeed
for the dogmatic will of fact and knowledge flood
but for where the river does bend
and ground at last stood
the lost horse takes the lead
and the last warriors cry unheard
but for a small child laid bare
in his mother’s death symbolic and vane
the child grows to be the warrior’s bane
and death recoils once more to snare
all this contained inside her stare
the greatest beauty man will ever know
hidden so well it has forgotten
the lair of tigers growling low
as this life turns begotten
what will next be decided
or the next to be found
is less about what fate is sacrificed
and more about love confided
a father bound
an experiment of his own design
only from a distance softly guided
as the seeming child experiences wound
around the wheel set for recurrence
the circle broken by spirals fate
as the user learns to be still and fervent
but never beyond the fact of desire does he wait
as he is lifted off the thing once more
to remember what he was before
and habit tries like old men to say
this world will never work that way
and the old prophets and poets lauded for talent
speak only of that which God bestowed
war
pestilence
disease
famine
loss
lack
death
all on the curve of the archer’s bow
alas who knew that that archer was you
as the background sounds the cattle’s low
and morning dawns for the eternal dreamer.
The visions of the hermit turned mystic
For lack of originality, I borrow
The words of old giants, for now, I’m still too small
In Bukowski, I find how to express anger and sorrow
Hughley and Blake Show me the prophecies of scripture and God’s call
To heaven nature and people one and all
Rumi the secrets of universal truth and destiny
But the words I borrow before
Found a source more pure and free
Than my copy cat writing of heading and words
As Poe’s raven eternally calls nevermore
Or my contemporary counterparts cry of bleeding in ink
But for the most part, their creativity begs for more
Even the blood in which we write screams for the missing piece
My soul screams and the earth burns all-day
No different from Blakes wine presses and the victims of Albion’s daughter L’uvah
The soulless continually drink away the cries and screams as we turn the way
The mystics scream we are one as clear as mud from under
The feet of shaman lame from clarity
As each, his medicines fail
And the tribe of one I AM loses its famed familiarity
The dead assuming life and suffering screaming their awful wail
As the furnaces of Albion turn once more
I the heart hearing the deafening cry
Suffering to slumber restless and sore
Wishing for just once the doorway into this sphere was dry
Too many brothers unaware commanding each other
By forcing shadows as slaves to each other they mame, steal, rape, and rob
Yet openly shared by those found by few
As the cross, we bear picked up each morn
And the world of death produces yet more rot
As his child, we dutifully wake lift and wear it
Masterfully convinced we are that which we are not
Looking to each other for judgment yet we fear it
As the one and only I am continues the process
And the furnace of death maintains its horrid burning
Even still Blake’s Jerusalem plays out to be true
And my scream is not that of grace but fuck this
As falls away yet another piece of my delusions from childhood
Grabbing so tightly runs the flame against that which does remain
That my imperfections be consumed like wood
And all the false virtues I dogmatically held with my judgments slain
Only to have my current understanding fail to be loving as the flame climbs higher
And more of the me I think I am consumed as it gets hotter
That old demon of doubt turning the flame eternal into the raging fire
Turn not to the left or right
The clear instruction from both Moses and Jesus shown
Turns not to be external in the books of Samuel’s life
The animal dies to worship the senses and richness of his own
But the birthright was stolen by the supplanting one
Who took upon himself to show you the light
Renamed Isreal and the homeland done
Of the one true son David in scripture
Not having et met him I spout mere conjecture
It makes for lovely speeches
It doesn’t stop the fear of still being too impure
Today’s teachers of the law and prophecy
While taking ample time to smear the names of each other
Swearing o an external God that theirs is the way to be free
As long as in the plate or box you add your wages earned in a job
Or the equivalent of the historians ten percent
So they can line their pockets as a reward for being the voice of God
In Hebrew, It’s yod he vav he English Jehovah but it is literally just the phrase to be
So in my most recent heartbreak recalled
Noticing everything in this age must be a noun
It creates so much pain to be so rigid and galled
I’ve yet to notice I am not to be in motion when found
A verb is something much closer in sound
As Lewis Carroll’s red queen did say
“In my world, if you aren’t moving then you’re going backward”
Add in the rabbit with the late way
As his broken timepiece keeps him rushing towards
A destination he can’t tell from where he is
As poor Alice and Absolom, the caterpillar both learned and know
The audience is self poor and fact strong
As he puzzles away with the simple riddle “ who are you?”
The answer is so innocent… I am but then I am what?
Never did until almost the end were those the words the silly girl blew
And that’s also the diet of Jesus of which we know not
While more of the daughter’s of Lu’vah
Scream out my name like heavenly sirens
And I miss my mark again falling prey to lust
And my furnace is turned up to star melting heat
My head and heart feel like they will soon bust
Failing to comprehend the strange realization
The pain giving me the ultimate revelation
I’d master even this simple law if not the worry about
The women I’ve loved or fear leaving behind
And the family and brothers I might lose
Even knowing born after me are my kind
And a sister who has triggered for me as would a muse
Refusing to leave me unwilling to grow as such a perfect gift
The brothers and family I’ve given life to the experience and can open up to
I no longer try to solely lift myself up
While I navigate my place in a tribe tied thicker and richer than blood
For the first time, I have a real place to call home
By Jesse Windsor
I set you free.
My soul aches as much for you as for the man I once was.
Knowing both those things are not possessions but expressions.
Seeking a way from ever new ethereal cages but fighting the desire to put you in one.
The one we both created our own versions of.
As so many before have failed and even more still stumble the way in utter darkness.
I want to only watch you grow and love each step you take.
In my immaturity and blindness I almost asked you the most seeming precious question until I realized that too was a cage.
For no matter how long we stay together or how often we are apart.
Letting you hold my heart is freeing.
And asking you that fatal question...
Is the most gilded cage I have ever created for you have always been part of me...
But it was never fair to ask possession of you.
Commonly referred to as being mine...
So fly free my angel.
But don't worry I choose you always.
Forever I choose to give you myself.
And I am always blessed when you choose to share you with me...
As always I am forever on my way to you...
And to only the true God do I ever defer...
Home is calling again...
You need only leave the door open for me...
Love you agape for all of infinity...
But possession you are not...
See you soon!!!
I arose this morning with a new twist. There is an awakened imaginal experience begging me to share it with you. I'm not too good at this whole style of writing down things for the benefit of others. however... This too is a realization in that it no longer matters. The power surging through every one of us is that of God himself. This power is called grace in the bible. I woke today knowing I was an omnipotent omnipresent being. Truly unfathomable in my classification but not unique in ability. in as much as I have been reacting as a victim to this experience of life, I have also been taking a strictly physical reactive approach to this adventure relying only on my sense to dictate who I am or what is happening. I am currently living in an experience that feeds the famine known to all those searching eternities for answers. A true experience of God. A vision of the night while sleeping but fully awake. Showing me the life I not only can have but have already been building mostly passively. Starting today with intent. The experience was a grand display of the truth of creation. I spent my night going from sphere to sphere watching as each of my iterations was acting out circumstances imaginally. then immediately afterward being surprised that the same argument or interaction with their physical world. Over and over with the same intensity of physical reality, I taught each of them to train their imaginations to think of others lovingly and watched their whole worlds change to match. So today I did the same as I was teaching in my vision... And my lover also took to me much more kindly. Her son is the same and I have a very realistic vision of the success of several of my projects. Take is as you will but, I now know all that I behold is under the influence of my supreme dominion!
