Pineapple Express

Pineapple Express

from the lands of warmth and generosity
blow the winds with such a velocity
that all is cleared, the freshness cheered
and the rains rinse all sorrows away

the sweetness, the scent, of flowers is meant
to procure the events now ensuing
the pleasurable scenes are truly the means
to evoke the very fruits of our dreams

to stand on the shores of the ocean of love
to receive the blessings from water
to cherish the connection, the medium of love
saturating the newness, the becoming of
the formless and yet unknown

Mesmerized

Mesmerized

mesmerized by the power of words
the energy, enchantment held by the sound
the multiple meanings whose intent can be bound
by words as they’re spoken, received, verbed or nouned

precious the vehicle to express who we are
to communicate to others our feelings and share
what we are experiencing, what we want there to be
adjectives are plentiful as we embellish and foresee

our means of expression, gentle or not
greatly enhances the meaning that’s caught
received or replayed, embedded or felt
the words we are using can be also misspelt

and does a misspelling alter the word
most often not for it is how it is heard
releasing the rules, focussing on the sound
we can ultimately play with all that’s outbound

the skill of enhancing the words that we use
is in the passion expressed with the intent to infuse
another or others who are there to receive
our heartfelt emotions and what we believe

there is something missing
when we don’t speak from the heart
for the heart knows the beauty
of the words we impart

The Role of the Whistle Blower

The Role of the Whistle Blower

in this time of self expression
we see now a new progression
from what was self disclosure
into out of integrity’s exposure

to be a whistle blower
one assumes many risks
and a passion to right the wrongs
can emerge with many twists

for what we observe
may be hidden in the curve
as time goes spiralling on

the detailed memories may be lost
but what remains is the cost
of wrong doings harming another

the whistle blower is a witness
witnessing the grievances, a pattern
with a desire to stop a destructive flow
all can be lit up with love’s powerful lantern

a love for life, for humanity
a retrieval from past insanity
purposefully exposed to the collective
so solutions can be brought to the elective

and a voice of reason and compassion
can speak to the whistle blower’s cash-in
transformation and healing is evoked
when the fire for change has been stoked
