The Empty Chair

I returned home from a long day at work,
my gaze, like a magnet, drew me there.
In the corner of the room, it just seemed to lurk.
Such a benign object:  an empty chair.

I stood for a while, transfixed so it seemed;
mesmerized by what wasn’t there.

The Energy Ocean

All life swims in an energy ocean;
of which we’re all unaware;
constantly flowing in circular motion;
without understanding where.

None are able to detect its existence;
physical senses no longer aware;
but still, impacted by its persistence;

This energy ocean supplies our

The Evil Of Separation

Life wasn’t created for existance on earth;
all consciousness; designed for unification;
cast out of God’s kingdom, after its birth;

The Angry Sea

Eventually, it all emptied into the Ocean;
and the river of life had become a sea;

What Is Real ?

Is Thought the author of life’s book;
does he have its final say?
Maybe our eyes should take a look;
shouldn’t they have some sway?

If we can touch it; isn’t it real;
doesn’t touch answer the question?
We can’t describe it, from its feel;
