Deliverance
Life evolves never static
For animals not problematic
Roll with changes no resist
No storms just some mist
Humans different we have mind
With stories of what’s left behind
Fuss agitate anxiety rules
Countless hours being fools
White knuckles resist changes
Fight gravity as world rearranges
Static lock up quickly
Pray for rescue feeling icky
How great yesterday was
Looking back creating buzz
Opportunity knocking at the door
Say we don’t want anymore
Then complain we are stuck
At last see can’t pass the buck
Take responsibility for your station
Deliverance knocks say yes with elation
What form is your resistance and how good are you at transcending?
What value has resistance provided and what cost?

I have always been a seeker, always looking for the answers to what seekers ponder. I can remember Dr. Maxwell Maltz and Psychocybernetics; Dr. Carl Rogers On Becoming a Person. Moving through my legal training and practicing law the focus was always about people and how to better their lives. All that searching, reading, studying and introspective work culminated in this collection of daily readings for seekers.
My work in the world has progressed from fighting legal cases to mediating divorces to helping people understand the essentials of relationship and collaborating to these poems. How can we collaborate effectively and work with each other in harmony to create the world we seek. How can we mindfully enable this world to become a place that works for all.
My prayer is that through introspection using these poems as a guide we can all grow together in making the world the Heaven on Earth we all aspire toward.
