• Four eyes meet - Swami X
• Rumor - Gerard Kuc
• RISE Up Through The Storm - Johnny Papp

By Swami X

Four eyes meet – admiration, empathy, conversation, and intimacy.
Four lips met – challenge, pleasure, wonder, curiosity.
Four Thighs met – delight, surrender, fulfillment, divinity.

Where in the divine plan fits the ego of man.
Without the anguish & illusion of Separation,
There’d be no union, elation or emancipation.
If one would really have Moksha, Release,
Realize that Spirit, all pervading,
which to everything, is underneath.
One’s hang up is one’s ultimate path to peace.

Rumor 

by Gerard Kuc
 
He said
what 'she' mentioned
as if he had
good intentions

how she whispered
what he explained
on how 'she' protested
and complained

he passed it on
from guy to guy
until it morphed
into a lie

now it's too late
to cover its track
now that 'her' reputation
is no longer intact

------------

RISE Up Through The Storm

THERE IS NO WAY TO MAKE UP
A LIFE THAT IS LOST OR GONE
WE HAVE ONE CHANCE TO SPEAK UP
AND RISE UP THROUGH THE STORM

WE HAVE TO SHAKE IT UP
AND MEAN IT
WE HAVE TO GET DOWN
BROTHERS AND SISTERS GET DOWN

WE HAVE TO DO
WHAT WE HAVE TO DO
TO RISE UP
TO RISE UP THROUGH THE STORM

WE WONT LET THIS GO
BECAUSE WE DONT HAVE TO
AND WE WONT HOLD ON
TO THEIR
WAR TIME SCENARIO

WE HAVE TO RISE UP
RISE UP THROUGH THE STORM

– JOHNNY PAPP
