Highly sensitive poetry on man and his condition from our Fellow Rawle Iam James (Canada)
Oasis
no longer searching
looking for the path
to knowing thy self
on the back side of a reflection
the adventure continues
beyond the image in the mirror
to love me from the inside out
as I dance with the naked truth
I am not an idea
but the imagination of one breath
an inhale of divinity as my pen
floods my heart with rainbow ink
into the forest
deserted minds exhale false pride
souls redeemed by the sacred waters
in the tranquillity of an oasis morn’
Truth Rains
in the annul of a thought that lingers
a wish of gratitude is planted in a whisper
as it readies for flight on swirling winds
yesterday awoke in tears from a scream
nostalgia floods her guarded memories
as time appears lost in the ancestral fires
out of the equatorial dance of life’s flame
tortured souls flicker above the embers
awaiting to Phoenix out of a sage smudge
free to wander through an orange sunset
clouds converge in a mystical twist
as truth rains the ethos upon the horizon
Six Feet of Loneliness
I was lost in the resistance
feeling trapped in six feet of loneliness
Old expectations burdened my soul
as anxieties bombarded my feelings
Within the lies of a victim’s redemption
shame flowed to bully idle thoughts
exposing the depths of my suffering
Clarity built a bridge to being found
no longer am I a slave in a lost revolution
I bathe in the muddy waters to free my soul
as I harness my hopes beyond limitation
I continue beyond the grasp of my karma
as I no longer feel trapped
in six feet of loneliness

Know You Are LOVE
You send me
to the universe within
to Love’s divinity
the soul of my soul
to where Possible lives
(From the poem You think you know)
