Music, Words, and Yoga

The cat prances lightly on a wall
Behind a smoked glass window.
Is it black, white, Calico, or Siamese?
We may never know…
The graceful silhouette carrying itself proud.
Needs no color.
Just,
Its graceful shroud.

Peaceful cold
With a heartbeat
So bold.
My head so warm
Peering
Through the shadows
For a place
To rest.
To close
For the day.
With rugs all around
Stacked high
To the sky.
Thick,
Double thick
On the floor below.
I think I’ll sit here
And
Enjoy the show.
See where I saw.
Feel
What
I know.

Who are you that hold
Such keys to the meaning of life?
Does it amuse you to look upon such strife?
Can it be that you are afraid?
Upon a pea
There lies a pod
Balancing high upon a blade of grass.
Does the poet fall upon the broken glass?
Do soldiers die for the price of gas?
Are we to find meaning
In our hopeless past.
Where we learned that fools and murderers conducted mass
To the weak,
To the wicked,
To the holier than thou.
To the begger goes the spoils.
The Sacred Cow.
Did we learn a madman
Captivates us even now?
As we teeter on destruction
In the forever, now.
The forever now?
The forever now…
The Forever Now
