Elul
I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine
Only we humans were created as one body
With male and female parts
That became separated
So we spend our entire lives
Driven to return to the oneness
Our souls are essentially a part of G-dness
We spend our lives thinking
That we want this
And we want that
But all we really want
Is to return to the oneness
This is the month of Elul
This is the month of Creation
And creating
And co-creating
And re-creating
And creativity
We are moved to rediscover
The roots of who we are
And to recreate ourselves
In that image
But all we really want
Is to recreate ourselves
Returning to the oneness
When there is love
There is no space too small
To keep us from being together
And there is no space too large
That can keep us apart
When there is love,
Then all of the unquenchable thirst
That exists in the Universe
Will drive us to seek to
Return to the oneness
And where there is love
That is created
From sharing together
Thousands of experiences
And millions of love songs
And heart songs
And prayers
And blessings
And feelings
And fears
And pangs of guilt
And saying I’m sorry
And knowing that you’ll
Come through for me
Like you have
Endless times before
Then the love
Will guide us
To return together To The Oneness
POETRY OF THE ART OF SEEING HOW LIFE'S SACRED TEXT GUIDES YOU AND REFLECTS YOUR ESSENCE AND YOUR WILL / RATZON
Dear life's sacred text readers….dear subtle resonators---dear recognizers of your name being called amidst the chaos of it all……know this---you extra-sensory perceptors—--you artistic connectors of the seemingly unconnected clues being thrown at you constantly , haphazardly ---or so it seems ---know this----- you scholars of the school of life-------- it's not by chance that what you see is what you see-------because you've learned the essential lesson ---that we all need ---that the more that you believe –the more that you will really see------and really be able to read the sacred text of reality ---and this will be the most profound conversation that the world can have with itself and with anyone else…….so embrace the sublimity of the poetry that I have been directed to send to thee this fine day ---and see if you can find your own way with life's sacred text guidances constantly coming your way
LIFE'S SACRED TEXT
***and life turns a page
and opens up for him
a brand new day
and it was evening
and it was morning
and G-d saw that it was good
and he could go there too
when he learns
how to know
how to read
life's sacred text
***and the love exchanged
with the people
and sounds and sights
and thoughts and plans
of his brand new day
open up his heart
to understand
what a lit up man
can understand
when he
makes a plan
to learn how to read
life's sacred text
***and the depth
is endless
sensational
unfathomable
but that doesn't
absolve him at all
from trying
at all times
to read
in between the lines
for each and every
illuminating message
he can find
in life's sacred text
PILLAR OF FIRE
[**life's sacred text guidance**]
***the pillar of fire
leads us through the wilderness
the clouds of glory
hover above
protecting us with love
***where life's loving beckoning leads
I follow
When life's sacred text speaks
I listen
I learn I yearn
***to see that ancient pillar
I long to be embraced
by those sublime clouds
the sparks are everywhere
the sparks complete me
in every thought
***sparks of soul recovery
sparks of revealing to me
who I am
and who I am
meant to be
-a spark in every prayer
-a spark in every teaching
-a spark in every friend
I thank You
that you send
sparks without end
IT'S THE ONLY VOICE
****eternity
shines down on me when I capture the infinite love
inside my sefirotic eyes
****illuminousity
seems to be the voice that keeps calling me
no matter what else occupies me
***poetry
has staked it's property here inside of me
I can't seem to find any other way to be
****electricity
is the eye with which I see with such intensity
that I can't seem to free myself
from it's light that enraptures me
****eternity
I pledge allegiance to thee your spacious expanse draws me
inside of thee it's the only voice
that speaks to me
ALL THAT WE CAN DO NOW IS TO SEARCH FOR HINTS AND CLUES
*once upon a time
we all spoke the same language
*we were all on the same page
*The Holy Tongue
was the only one that we all knew
*Unity was the only
Language that we all knew
*but when the end goal
became the I without the Thou
*that's when The Holy tongue
became mingled like an invisible soul
in the all the tongues of the globe
*and all that
we can do now
is to search for
hints and clues
hiding in hidden sparks
*and with the help
of the Holy One
we will redeem
the unified glory of the holy tongue
*and on that day
He will be One
and His Name
will be One
A CONSTANT STREAM OF SPARKS LEADING US DOWN THE ROAD
the choices we make
the walks that we take
the books that we read
the lives that we lead
the things we seek
the friends we meet
the ups and the downs
the turn-arounds
the extent that we are awakened
the brokenness and depression that we have forsaken
every sphere of existence
every struggle and resistance
all these and more
come knocking at our door
and call out our name
this is no game
these are our holy spark lights
the life-force of our lives
that which is lacking in our souls
a constant stream leading us down the road
PLANT A SEED OF YOUR NEW DESIRED REALITY AND WATCH IT GROW
***plant a seed
plant a desired scenario
and watch it unfold
watch with anticipation
watch with resignation
watch with bated breath
watch and know
that what you wanted to happen
will unfold
***and there's a coming together
of what you want to be
just watch and see:
there's a spectacle that dazzles the mind
and it works every time
on this you can be sure
just watch and see
cuz seeing is believing
and believing enables seeing
*** and even if you think
that what is unfolding
is not what you had in mind
think again
realize
The Creator
The Divine Instigator
knows that the vision
that you thought
you had in mind
is only veil-ing
your deepest vision
you knew it all the time
He always makes it happen
in His own way
in His own time
THE POETRY OF THAT MYSTERIOUS STATE OF BEING CALLED 'RATZON'
Dear willful, willing, primal desirers, seekers of the mystical state of being ---of being in your element …of seeing why you have been sent here….dear becomers… the sensation of knowing that you can be whatever you want to be---carries with it endless intrigue….explore your desires—you sweet mountain climbers …you precious sky divers…you life liners…Ratzon is here and knocking on your doors…come out and breathe in the possibilities of living like you never have before….here are some poems daring to explore---even to fathom the opportunities we have at our fingertips at this unique time
DESIRES
*desires can ignite sacred fires
*desires can create holy souls
*desires can transcend the world of lies
*desires can reflect all that will happen
*desires can connect us to the beyond
*desires can show us what we are missing
*desires can help us step into the realm of the miraculous
*desires can open us up to live the life we love
*desires can allow us to be invincible
*desires can help us be at one with our life's calling
*desires can help us be at one with The One above
AND WHEN WE WALK THIS EARTH WITH A TRUE GRASP OF WHAT IT'S WORTH
there is a spark of endless light
waiting to be discovered
in it's camouflaged state
not yet allowed to participate
in the celebration
of it's ultimate elevation
it's been hiding for thousands of years
in the masquerade party
of life's nondescript anonymity
blind to it's ultimate destiny
unaware of the beauty
that will be on display
for all to see
And when we walk this earth
with a true grasp of what it' s worth
with a vision
of what will soon be known
with a passion
that won't leave us alone
AND I FEEL SO ALIVE
And I feel so alive
when my resonation revives
the sparks of hidden life
calling me from their hidden hive
of long lost activity
of a distant memory
of how things are supposed to be
drawing me close to thee
And I'm driven to seek out
the love
that magnetizes
the soft light
that hypnotizes
and the lesson
internalizes
when I'm consciously
mesmerized
By the sparks
of the food
that I eat
by the sparks
of the partialness
that I complete
by the sparks
that are thoroughly replete
by the sparks that shine so powerful and discreet
by the sparks of primal desire
May we be offered
a hidden way
to forsake all the mindlessness
that we seek to escape
May we be offered a hidden way
to reshape the path
we so deeply want to take
to discover another side
of who we are
and another
and another
ad infinitum
THE NATURE OF PRIMAL DESIRE.
Desire;
compelling---you cannot ignore it
irresistible---you must give in to it
impossible---is not an option with it
adrenalin---saturates every body cell with it
projection---of the completed vision of it
enticing---you cannot resist it
Desire;
offer---that you can't refuse
explosive ---and you light the fuse
passion---heated wellsprings endlessly enthused
color---deepest red and pulsating hews
fire---frenzied heat inhabits all you peruse
obsessed---infatuated frenzy-you cannot choose
THE GREATER THE CHALLENGE THE MORE PRIMAL YOUR DESIRE MUST BE
*the greater the challenge
the more primal your desire must be
and
the more primal your desire is
the more the challenge turns into bliss
*the greater the darkness
the more primal your desire must be
and
the more primal your desire is
the more the darkness turns into light
*the greater the separation is
the more primal your desire must be
and
the more primal your desire is
the more the separation turns into unification
*the greater the concealment is
the more primal your desire must be
and
the more primal your desire is
the more the concealment turns into revelation

A FEW POEMS ABOUT BRAVELY LIVING YOUR CALLING IN LIFE
Dear wanderers through the wilderness of life ….searchers for a plan or for some inspiration to help to make it all work out right…..hear the calling deep inside your spirit –like the bat kol of old announcing it's message to the bold ones……see the horizon's distant light selectively shining in your eyes like the the pillar of fire leading you past the pitfalls of life in the seemingly endless life…..know your path and know it well and don't fall for some cliché way that passes for a respectable plan for any decent woman or man---time and life is way too precious for that…you have a song that no one else can compose ---and that's the one and only way that you are meant to go…..perhaps some poetic inspiration can light up your absolutely unique resonation
THE CALLING
Magnetized hypnotized electrified occupied
so intensely with his calling
calling him to stay and then to go
he can't really know until the inner voice
leaves him no choice but to climb that tree
bridging him to the place that he's meant to be
if he could only be
and this calling voice lights up a candle
on a pitch black night what an awesome sight
he's tried and tried and forever remains
magnetized hypnotized electrified occupied
INTENSITY SCREAMS OUT MY NAME
****intensity screams out my name
on the streets on the rooftops
in the eyes of all those I see in passing
embarrassed glances some of them know
most just look away
*****I want the truthI want your heart
I won't settle for anything less
time ---precious--spark filled
life filled time won't settle for anything else
*****I want the pnimiyus
I want the soul of the matter even when everyone else
is content with the outer trappings
with the --how does it look?!'
with the --'what will people say?!'
with the ---'what will I get from it?!
*****speak to me
from a place of timelessness
speak to me from a space of effortlessness
speak to me with passion speak to me from your truth
speak to me with intensity I won't
I can't
settle for anything less
WHO'S CALLING THE SHOTS AROUND HERE
****the righteous ones know
that though they seem
to be the ones calling the shots
and the ones mapping out their paths
they know that a higher hand
guides their hand
a superior plan supersedes their own
a route unknown to be shown
to them only when the time is right
hindsight
so they say is the way that we can see
what the Creator wants us to see
****and when you know this clearly
then you can be set free
to navigate an alternative reality
where you know with crystal clear clarity
that even when things don't turn out
the way you planned them to be
you can trust that this is way
the Creator meant for it to be
****and even the
worst of mistakes the most unfortunate breaks
the stupidest blunders will never tear us asunder
from just where we're supposed to be
it's been thusly decreed
from the beginning of time beyond reason or rhyme
****and sometimes
we fall where we fall to help lift up all of those souls
who have nowhere else to go
and have been waiting
since who knows when for us to fall
into their small-minded place into their imprisoned space
and together with us
they rise high above the skies
to reclaim their lives
***and we trust in the process
that continually leads us with hearts open and closed eyes
and those who are truly wise learn how to see how their lives
are being guided by the One who knows
just where you need to be and where you need to go
and what you need to know

TO DISCOVER ANOTHER SIDE OF WHO I AM
**And I feel so alive
when my resonation revives
the sparks of hidden life
calling me from their hidden hive
of long lost activity
of a distant memory
of how things are supposed to be
drawing me close to thee
**and I'm driven to seek out
the love that magnetizes
the soft light that hypnotizes
and the lesson internalizes
when I'm consciously mesmerized
by the sparks of the food that I eat
the sparks of the partialness that I complete
the sparks that are thoroughly replete
the sparks that shine so powerful and discreet
**and sparks of primal desire
offer a hidden a way to forsake
all the mindlessness we seek to escape
offer a way to reshape
the path we so deeply want to take
to discover another side of who I am
to clearly show me that I am
a brand new man
with a brand new plan
ECHOES JUST BEYOND THE REACH OF MY CONSCIOUS MIND
**And I feel so alive

with a brand new plan
ECHOES JUST BEYOND THE REACH OF MY CONSCIOUS MIND
***deep inside a voice calls
in the distance a lion roars an eagle soars closed doors
open effortlessly leading me down the path of a dream
I wake up not remembering a thing
***in the way you smile
I recall how it felt once upon a time
so sweet so sublime
in days gone by it was the spice of life
what was it that struck my eye? that got me so high?
***in the shadows
I realize what I'm here for
and then this illusive realization
disappears into my imagination
indistinguishable from the endless stream
of thoughts flying by
***a leaf falls gracefully
intoxicating me with it's promise of how it could be
echoes of eras to come and eons gone by
drive me relentlessly I'm not sure why
but right now I gotta fly see ya at thenext intersection
in the sky of my mind but for now I gotta fly
before I fall too far behind not sure how not sure why
***and to you
my perennial invisible friend be with you till the end
and love and regards to all those hints and clues
you might find here at the edge of the shadow mind
THE POETRY OF TRUTH
Dear primal truth seekers-------refusers to fall asleepers------- inevitable breakthrough believers------cut to the chase helpless screamers…..the time has come for your light to shine -----wake up wake up….wake up the rest of us ----who don't realize the opportunity that is at hand--------the golden chance to leap into our own promised lands--------stand up and herald the truth in all of it's pristine glory ----it's the great escape out of here---out of the deceptions and lies that are so pervasive in our lives ----- …..Scream your truth ----you children of the dream-----because you ain't seen nothing yet---don't settle for anything less----the truth is the seal of the One Above------if you want to be in His Presence---you must speak and feel and think his Seal---the Seal of Truth ------- may the words of these poems soothe the transition ----smooth the transformation----soften the integration--- from the World of lies to the world of Truth-----let truth be the only articulation that you speak---the only noise that you think ---we have no choice---so open up your lovely voice and speak only truth----start today---it will show you a whole new way
YOU ARE MY DEEPEST TRUTH
you are my deepest truth
your love never disappoints
you show me a safe way out
you reflect to me my best side
you unleash inside of me the deepest passion
you let me know that it's all going to be ok
you awaken inside of me what I need to be fulfilled
you reassure me that my deepest will is yours as well
you gladly accept my burden
your patience for me is endless
you share with me your wisdom whenever I ask for it
you give me anything and everything when I'm ready to receive
you steer me clear of lies and deception
you demonstrate to me that nothing is impossible
you gently urge me to jump in to the unknown fearlessly
you embolden me to t trust my invincibility with you by my side
you encourage me to never fear anything when you are here
you appear to me in the grandest scenarios
you show yourself to me in the raindrops on the river rocks
you reveal to me the depth of every word
you are my deepest truth
THE TRUTH , THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH
***How does a person get back;
that which is disconnected
that which is uncontented
that which is unrelented
***How does a person re-embrace
How does a person re-compensate
How does a person re-integrate
that long lost part of their being?
*** How do we get it back?
How do we get back
the life force in our lives
How do we get back
the expression in our eyes
How do we get back
the synchronizing of our mind
***I'm not entirely sure
but this I do know
Our hearts and our minds will open
When we know the truth
about who we are:
***The truth
The whole truth
and nothing but the truth
so help me Gd
***Without any alternative agenda
Without any slip sliding pretending
Without one thing coming out of our mouths
and quite another inside our hearts
***and when we do get
to that knowing , glowing , flowing truth
when it saturates us
and infatuates us through and through
when it's what we think
and say and do
When we Feng shui
mind body and life
When we have a flow going
all the time
when what's coming out
is what's coming in
and what's coming in
is what's coming out
***Then and only then
we will begin to walk that path
back home again
SPEAKING MY TRUTH RIGHT OUT LOUD FOR ANYONE TO HEAR
***to be born again
conceived in
mystic soliloquy
speaking my truth
right out loud
for anyone to hear
or perhaps no one at all
it makes no difference
***I'm on Divine time now
whatever needs to be said
will come through
in a mesh of laser beam
confluence
intuited lines
of
French fried rhymes
the darkness of confinement
melts into candy cane alignment
those old rusty chains
no longer have a hold on me
can't you see?
***I'm on His time now
and there is no better time
than now
always
in all ways
in phases of
evolving expansion
with phrases of
purest intentions
in ever increasing
ascensions
***We're on his time now
there is no rush
any and every thought
is worthy of endless resonation
any and every word
is deserving of eternal harmonic intonation
the creation of life
is working though
you and I
and allowing
you and I
to be new in ways we've never known before
A WORLD OF LIES
we live in a world of lies
seers are blind
friends aren't very kind
deception is the key
to becoming
powerful and wealthy
and to tell the truth
it seems that
all you can do
is to surrender and sigh
we live in a world of cynicism
things aren't the way that you think
the level of trust is on the brink
it's getting too hard to breathe
you can barely see
and even when the smoke clears
you can barely see or hear
through the thick clouds of skepticism
and somewhere
in the cloud of darkness
a lone voice of reason
strains to be heard
a string of beaded words
ushers in a brand new season
and it's a voice of hope
a voice of knowing
a voice of love
inspired by the One Above
and slowly but surely
the clouds all float away
and a brand new day
embraces the horizon
the naked truth enlightens
the darkness of lies
and the heart-filled love
melts away the pitiful cries
and the knowledge of the One
eases the fears of the children's sighs
