The Last Soldier


Worn, torn and wan
A very old ghost an’ colourless banner
At the frontier final battle
At the lowest contour
The last soldier died as sacrificing
Toward the destiny left in the past long long time ago
The only remaining ghost holding the ground
In the frozen memory
Half eternity
A tiny boat
In the ocean solid icy face
Kissed by the breezes don’t even lift long eyelashes
Wearing crystal ice
Gazing the sky
Longing for sunshine
Couldn’t find its way
Failed amid the Space
Fasting infinity;
frozen_universe
Sealed inside the eyeballs, trapped dreams
Waiting to fly
Fractured bony wings
A fake messenger being
In light speed
Greets from a distance
Leaves a sentence of message
Psycho-waves
Face to face with the medallions

Vijja vs Avijja - Battle in the Great River


Dwells in no past, no future
No thought from these unreal times;
Dwell at this very moment
The Present the actual Nibbanna;

Vedana is namma -
The teaching of the Buddha;
By recognizing each sensation as namma,
No greed arisen
Self and pride forsaken;

Tranquillity established!

Just know namma
Whenever vedana appears
That’s the shortest path
To the deathless realm of the Ariyas!

Depiction


Blocking the view
In front of this window
Still one of the best
A rich fruiting lemon plant;

Green ones,
Yellow ones,
Fallen ones on the ground
  
And on the highest the rotten one
Exposed to the sun,
Minimum shade of leaves;
Yet to stay, not falling
Promising to dry on the plant
With all reasons!

Any attempt to bring it down is treason

Leaves scattered
Rather dry on the grass

Fruits like us scattered
Fallen on the ground
Just to become part of the plant again

Buying gravity - nobody can?
Demons that love climbing;

Buying gravity, yes, he is! 








With the Force of the Earth


Life is just a flow
Live and grow;
It’s just a go
Reach a goal just to get to another;
May be swift or slow
Learn and keep flowing;




No, better hate no one!
No, mustn’t hate anyone!
No, cannot hate anyone!
If earth were under control,
Would there be no change!
Every land is filled with blood
For war and for peace;

Space is filled with just waves at unease
The universe is life an’ death time machine;

If there’s no freedom,
Find life’s rhythm in silence;
Dignity stolen
But honour unforgotten;
To give the martyrs the deserved places;
Soon opportunity will come!

With Moon’s force,
Even when the tide resists an’ swells
A river flows only its direction
With the force of Earth!

No problem to grow in shade an’ shadow
In the forest filled with histories
Of Trees those were tall an’ great
Those made the forest
An’ tall an’ great everywhere
Rejuvenation rejoicing
An’ rekindling flames glow the night sky
Along the river of time
Upon the layers of ashes
Recorded memories in the fragrances


Was Only A Bus Stop


Attempted to put youths together
The river couldn’t fill its water
Over its dried bed; summer or rain!

Time couldn't just stop there
So many years passed, too swift;
Wish we were at a whirlpool
Then we would never need going separate ways
Where youth never grow old
Where life be neither slow nor fast

But was only a bus stop
Even that bus no longer running!
Still that route exists?  
Along it, should keep travelin’ together
Many years, many times
With compassionate love
Let us forgive each other
Let us hold together
Let the dream flowing forever
If such dream ever made of hope!

Was your name, Jennie, Pookie?
Was it Tanya, just a river?
These rivers lost somewhere?
Never got to the ocean, nowhere!
Might this river keep on flowin’ the same direction,
Longin’ for lovers to come an’ swim,
With solicitous solstice

Let the river
Gazin’ at the youths holding
The short last meeting o’ theirs

Couldn’t say a word
Lost in your beauty, now memory
Just a man with worry, I am!
Looking across the river, the other shore
Invisible in the mist winter more

SOMETIMES



Sometimes you have to bring its King alone
Exposed and trapped - Checkmated ...
Don’t even let its Queen make a move once
Enclosed and setback – Negotiated ...

No Heroes born twice
You make your moves with the best choice
And there you’ll recognize how a history
Cannot be written for good otherwise...
