To All Beloved Poem Hunter Poets
Dedicated to: Terence George Craddock and Eric Cockrell.
To all beloved poets,
(Firm in my believe: all poets are indeed beloved.
For I hold each and everyone of you dearly in my heart.)
Please refrain from becoming disenchanted
by all your pensive eyes behold.
Please keep in mind:
we wander this razed terrain together,
though scattered afar and abroad.
Wandering still, after many countless ages,
trapped (as it may seem)
but for a purpose,
a purpose not of our own.
The purpose to serve humanity.
From your receptive spirit flows the unyielding momentum of creation.
In your eyes, rests the immeasurable essence of the Clear Light.
Your mouth delivers the living voice of all sentient beings.
Within you a certain purity steeps,
pouring out from your words,
passing through me like holy basil,
inspiring with clarity
moments I have fallen weak.
Those enlivening words crafted in the depths of your being,
the wisdom plain to see
yet unrecognizable to most,
the wisdom you pluck from the surrounding landscape,
the wisdom ripe in air the above your bed,
these ever precious truths mustn't be coarked,
your purity mustn't be adulterated
by the harshness of transient beings.
Oh Benevolent Apex spirits!
Athene's Aonian messengers!
Enlightened Agents,
Born again Bodhisattvas,
Descendents of the stars!
Aeolian muses sent forth from Helicon's summit!
Arise from ye ancient slumber!
Let us awaken the world to
the age of conscious anointment!
Together we are the wind and water,
the pure, true elements of movement and change!
