I Could Speak About Silence Forever

I breathe in
and with that one breath
                               I am free
Such is the power
of meditation

Oh.
I see the snares
I have set for myself
but ever mindful
of my own value
I step in them less
                     and less

I drink my tea__
and I share my tea
with the Buddha
            and we laugh our delusions away

I breathe in
and with that one breath
I am free
           I am nothing
                          I am peace

My Only Weapon Is My Pen - The written words of one enigmatic lunatic known as DakaSky

Tongue

The
Power
of Tongue
to slice
or to love
to express
or to say
what we’re thinking of
Biologically
the strongest
muscle of all
could shoot words of death
like a cannonball
BOOM-BOOM-BOOM-BOOM
soft and slimy
able to taste
yet words are spoken
with waste & haste
Death to the lies
Death to the hate
Death to everyth….
No – Wait ! WAIT !
Care what you say
Care what you do
Nothing will happen
Unless you choose
to speak only Love
to say only Truth
accompanied by mouth
assisted by tooth
Yes
Often things are best conveyed
Without tongue in action
Silently say
nothing
nothing
ssssshhhhhhhhhhhhh….
