The illusion of life and salvation's path. Published: The National Library of Poetry, July 10, 1995.

Oh, Samsara!, the ancient sages cry,
that beguiling circle of time dancing again at life's door;
will you foolishly tread the same path as before?

Oh, elusive Self!, inner sanctum of illumined grace,
how does one track thee through such a tortured maze;
to patiently endure the tribulations of this place?

Oh, Supreme Union!, most hallowed, lofty goal,
with guidance to achieve thee being readily at hand;
how countless many have echoed it across this fair land?

Oh, most arrogant species!, further adrift from the path,
thy abiding ignorance hath destroyed nearly all in sight;
muted forever those wonderful creatures who helped form the Light.

Oh!, Samsara!, whose playground is that web of life!
be kind to all you encounter throughout the day;
for peace of body, mind and soul is what you seek along The Way.

Oh, Samsara!, how you dance about that eternal Light!


Evil Seed

I needed that phallus! It's been a busy day...oh the filmmaker makes me smile...furthermore, hard ones, bricks and dicks..."with guidance to achieve thee being readily at hand"...dance me spitting cobras my lover, ancient sage cries! My lips bid you a taste of fiery allegiance...

Profound writing from a pen that bears the ink of knowledge.

"Samsara" is a masterpiece for the pages of twenty-first century's Poetry.

Salvation's path and the illusion of life. See, I can do this too. What a poem. Wow!
The cauldron must have bubbled to churn this one out. What style is this? Bill Murray

It is a cyclic flow of Karma, and in realizing this...we begin to live in reality and free ourselves from the suffering.

Future: The Spiritual Story of Humanity by Glenn Martin

Histories of the world are generally written to either celebrate technology and science, or to herald doom. My book examines the path of the spirit in the onward rush.
