Day 3 of writing at the Temple. At this point- my typewriter was barely functioning. Yet- I couldn't stop thinking about fixing it. I was storing it at the Temple and returning with coconut oil, duster, wd-40 whatever I could use to try and make it work. I got lucky and got it working for a bit in the middle of the night on Wednesday night and wrote these gems.
Power
You see it all begins in the infinite well
That exists effortlessly within me
It is my duty to harness it efficiently
So may I utilise my divine stregnth
To truly share my talent/Prowess with
This writhin world just begging
For a wake up
May I see the power within me may be used
To change this world
With each and every step I take may I
Shape this every changing reality
Making it a better place for us all
Power?
Is choice, and trusting
my path.
Longing
Its a welling within me
To fulfill desires that serve me
Yet always I seem to have the feeling
At the end of the day- that something
Is missing
I've cultivated the garden of self
Reaped the fruits of awareness
I've even trimmed the forgotten flowers
Browned in the suns fury
Yet this seems to well in the pits of my
Stomach
Though I desire to feel content
Perhaps I can if I take a special pleasure
From the earthen delights
That become a feast for my eyes
It is in the way you eye the others
Hungrily
As to soak in the spirit they are offering
It is a blessing
To shelter my cares from the seeking
Allowing my
contentment to rise
With the comfort I find
By truly soaking the others in
&Smiling a bit
Knowing that soon enough it will be my time
To shine and recieve the ultimate gift
Of the kind of partner who appears out of
Nowhere
As though the heavens parted&sent her there
To seamlessly&effortlessly mesh your lives
Into a perfect circle
