Green Tara’s Promise (Om Tare Tuttare Ture Soha) She moves like dawn on quiet feet, a whisper, soft—both fierce and sweet. One foot poised, one reaching wide, she lifts the lost, stands at their side. A lotus blooms where sorrows cease, her name a breath, her gift is peace. #poem #poetry

So they banned some books. They can’t ban our minds, our souls. Not yet anyway. #poem #poetry #haiku

#poem #poetry #haiku From her hands it falls, a river of endless love, washing sorrow clean.

#poem #poetry #haiku Mind like a still pond, clouds drift, but water remains— peace in knowing this.

#poem #poetry #haiku Silent Bodhi sways, a breath, a thought, then no more— morning light remains.

#poem #poetry they nod along they don’t march— not yet. they just nod, shrug, say it’s complicated. a ban here, a purge there, a quiet erasing. nothing to panic over. until the night you hear the shouts, and realize you were never on their list— just next in line.

Rest in peace, Marianne Faithful. You were awesome.

Still missing Barry

Haiku for The Silt Verses 1 @thesiltverses.bsky.social Whispers in the dark, Prayers bleed through swollen banks— The river answers. ~ A prayer, a knife’s edge, Old god rises in the mist— Water takes its toll. ~ Dark rivers whisper, Faith and blood in tangled depths — The tide claims us all.

Haiku for The Silt Verses 2 @thesiltverses.bsky.social Rivers carve their creed, Worship flows like blackened tides— Belief drowns the soul. ~ Gods of mud and stone, Hungry mouths in silent waves— Devotion consumes. ~ Faith born of the flood, Sacrifice drifts in the reeds— The current won’t wait.
