The Inner Cleansing
Finding the words that remain.
Detoxing Dogmatic Routines and Patterns
The inner cleansing is due
reaching back into forgotten places
raking the spiritual leaves
collecting the pile of pieces
organizing the puzzles of life
-
As much as needed
find the time to rewind
detoxing dogmatic routines
binding down what could have been
interrupting what should be
-
The inner understanding
beyond holistic comprehension
always there in the eternal now
behind the rigid structure
made to defend our logic
-
The detox was avoided for too long
when it becomes a lovely dream after all
finding ways to achieve balance
solving frustrations abounding in ignorance
teaching lifestyle changes through experience
-
The inner cleansing
putting aside familiar routines
laying aside prideful assumptions
seeking beyond surface emotions
rounding up every sensible correlation
-
Collecting the sum meaning
regarding the frequencies of energy
removing the unbalanced shifters
pulling floating balance under
symbolic waves depicting harmony
-
The effort will result in knowing
when the boundaries within are found
outside of the intangible illusion
the remaining construct left by default
by a soul burdened with pain and sorrow
Cleansing the Circuit Board to Eternity
The inner cleansing will help
the words and sentences explaining
the level of comprehension
without structured mirrors
showing trained expressions
in pictures of individual regret and shame
-
Inside the outside is found
in circuits abounding with energy and light
connecting unexpectedly
the profound meaning
in places winding around time
-
The air is cluttered with worry and doubt
fear abounds with shooting darts
distractions multiply with every second
time is sliced into millions of chores
slating the wretch into perpetual misery
-
Swirling within are illusions and false understandings
constructed in familiar patterns of behavior and actions
solidified in mind, body, and soul
limited by the present dimensional capacity
seen as clearly as the water behind the blue sky
-
Inner cleansing will find solutions
with positive leanings in daily life
able to handle the struggles and challenges presented
by toxified beings in energy vortexes
and the circuit board to eternity within

Beautiful insights which resonate, friend! I remain essentially an nonthiest, but have come to view religion as a part of science, not as opposed to it. We've been trying to tell ourselves something all along haven't we? Whether it is the Buddha beneath the Bodhi tree, Augustine parrying the Manichees, Luther nailing his proclamations to the door of the Cathedral, the Kabbalists ruminating on the unnamable name, or quantum physicists puzzling over how a particle can also be a wave... I could give so many more examples... but the seeker always finds. Always. The danger lies in accepting a premature conclusion, which is all that any dogma has ever been! Perhps a Deist like Thomas Paine was right to say we should find God's Will in his work by studying it, and perhaps also the ancient Brahmins knew the dangers of dogma when they coined the term "Neti-Neti". God--or in their term Brahma--is "Not this, Not that". Always Neti-Neti. I take this to mean it matters not how we get there, only that there is where we belong, where we consummate that will which is our to complete, and that the supreme danger is always that we should think to stop seeking, for the universe is ever in motion, and so too are we! Forgive my rambling, but your work really struck a chord in me! Well-wrought!
I enjoyed both poems, Robbie. "Detoxing dogmatic routines" is a great title and line!
Wow, lovely poems!
