Besoin

Vivre l’infini,

Un monde vital, parfois sombre;

Mystérieux jardin!

Brouillard

Nomenclature

Médiévale; arbitraire

D’un autre siècle;

L’abîme se dessine…

Charybde et Scylla attendent,

Inexorables, leurs arrhes!

Entretemps, la mer

Enragée s’affirme encore,

Ses vagues s’entrechoquant…

Donnant l’assaut à

La digue partout fissurée

Ne pouvant plus les…

Contenir dans leur

Fureur légitime; ‘Assez!’

Disent-elles et déferlent…

La digue résiste mais

Ce n’est que partie remise

Avant la rupture…

Finale…le ressac

Purgera le rivage

De tous les mythes…

Imposés par la

Déception et l’abus d’une

Houle qui a soif…

De surmonter le

Retard imposé par une

Vaine muraille.

Le temps, parfois d’une

Accablante indifférence,

Attend en silence!

Le brouillard s’effrite

Miraculeusement sous

L’astre bienveillant!

Confusion!

An unbelievable

Inspiration for most of

Peace minded kindred,

Until it falls short

Of its calling, and clodpolls

Use it for revenge

Against helplessly

Isolated fragile crowds

Whose mistake was to

Live amongst so-called

Peacefully inclined saffron

Robed men who had no

Qualms taking someone’s

Life because he or she seems

To be closer to

A false elusive

Affluence…a criminal

Act based on greed and

Love of easily

Gained profits, never for a

Moment questioning

The aftermath of

Their reprehensible deeds;

Buddha wouldn’t approve!

Balance

Justice, measure, right,

Prudence, weighed equilibrium,

Acts sustained by truth.

Very secret lodges,

Everywhere active above

Ground and under it,

Obscured by acts of

Violence in the name of some

Political creed;

Ludicrous ideals

That are based on a power

Ravenous hunger.

We attempt to deal

With them day in, day out, but

Fighting them is moot.

They forever win;

We cannot live without them;

They are in control.

Even governments

Kowtow to their insidious

Merciless clutches…

Which are so sharpened,

That any dissension will

Be shredded to pieces!

Bull

Solar sense, strength,

Kingly power; horns its bow,

Shooting its sunbeams…

Lunar symbol when

Ridden by the Moon Goddess,

The bringer of rain…

All fecundity,

Sacrifice, chastity and

Masculine patience…

Impetuous fire

When contradicted;

Guardian of the maze!

Deceived by Ariadne

Whose passion for Theseus

Was not rewarded;

Haunted by dreams and

Revelations; the slaying

Of her half brother,

The Minotaur, the

Cause of her abandonment

On the island of Naxos;

Dionysus was there

To pledge his love; her diadem,

A constellation!

Lady Equity

Her arms lifted high

Above the shimmering white

Wall beckon my sight

To follow her to

Heights unknown to me before…

Her insanity

Prevails over me,

Occulting any previous

Fears…I am with her!

Elation

Fingers dipping in

The glassy metallic broth;

Inebriating! 

Balai

Humble instrument en

Apparence, il n’en est pas

Moins signe de puissance…

Dans les sanctuaires,

Dans les temples anciens,

Balayage rituel…

Fait fuir la poussière

Et non les hôtes invisibles,

Génies protecteurs...

L’abondance et le

Bonheur sont les leurs pour nous

Guider et garder!

Aspect

Un instant passé,

La pensée s’estompe pour nous

Rappeler notre fuite

Face au quotidien,

Abjecte routine, miroir flou;

Je te suis soumis!

Arabesque

Une épure lucide

Et rigoureuse; un rythme,

Une incantation…

Dhikr mental, support

De contemplation de l’art;

La béatitude!

Labyrinthe dont le

Parcours complexe rejoint les

Versets révélés…

Épigraphes elles

Sont, repoussant les règles;

Art abstrait…symbole!

Ankh

Cross and magical

Knot; opposites attracting

Sun, Sky, Earth and Man…

Conciliating

Contraries of active or

Passive desires…

Esoteric key

To an elusive portal;

Happiness awaits!

Angels

Intermediaries

Between this world and the next?

Good people on Earth!

Their wings, their good deeds;

Spiritual and modest;

They’re plenty around!

Androgyne

La figuration

Anthropomorphique de l’œuf

Cosmique; vertu…

Dualité du

Monde des apparences;

Fusion salutaire!

La réalité;

L’unité fondamentale;

Retour essentiel…

Ciel et Terre; Yin Yang;

Confondus dans l’amalgame;

Notre naissance…

Être double uni,

Enlaçant un rituel

Solidaire des deux…

La nécessité

Impérieuse de rejoindre

Ces deux pour paraître…

Mâle ou femelle,

L’être humain ne connaît

Pas ses limites!

Il se confine

Dans des rôles qui occultent

Sa propre essence!

Monkey fist

Weight in a heaving

Line to bring the ship ashore; 

A formidable

Weapon it can be

In a melee of drunken

Sailors looking for

Blood when free at last.

Precious stones it can conceal…

A good way to fool

Customs and become

Rich in one trip, multiplying

Hard earned income

A thousand fold…a

Beauty to make and behold;

It’s a keeper’s trove!

Picture: three homemade monkey fists

Abîme

État informel

De l’existence qui convient

Au Chaos brumeux…

Monstre Léviathan,

Un haillon hideux qui drape

La Terre de part en part…

Avale les êtres

Pour les recracher bientôt

L’esprit purifié!

Invitation à

Explorer les profondeurs

De la pensée pure!

Amazons

Women, man hunters,

Greatest desire to subdue;

Clash! No time to waste!

Rivalry that drains

Rather than restore their strength.

Stellar forces; rush!

These fierce matriarchs

Kowtow to Hyppolyte whom

One day they betray!

Militant guardians

Of an elusive Eden;

Lavish Walkyries!

Jusqu’à la mort, Talisman!

Envoie la foudre

Par le triangle,

Puissant tourbillon; malheur

Aux forces maléfiques!

This L.......y ad seems to have latched onto me! Every time its pernicious presence is conspicuously there! Now, don't jump the gun and tell me that others have more serious problems to deal with (Syria, the Palestine Apartheid, The Philippines latest cataclysm...and you would be unequivocally right! Hehehe! Apparently I have to take my two brains to the gym otherwise they will become so lazy, they will refuse to communicate with each other!  

Luminosité,
A sticky word to entrap

The unwary kind!

N.B.: L.......y spelled intentionally en Français!
