Meditation - by Will Whitted - summer '96

 

 When I reach out to the Infinite with all that I am,
Relieved of reservations, unencumbered by my fears,
I find a path that leads to nothing,
A nothing suffused with pure, unconditional Love,
A Love that creates a Universe,
A Universe that cradles me.

When I reach into myself with all my strength,
Relieved of reservations, unencumbered by my fears,
I find a path that leads to nothing,
A nothing suffused with pure, unconditional Love,
A Love that forms my essence,
An essence that cradles a Universe.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Honky Tonk Haiku

a love poem by Will Whitted

winter of 1997

 

The fire is hot,
The flames lick her soul awake,
He could be "the one".

She burns so brightly,
Lights the path so he can see,
Where forever starts.

Loneliness draws them,
Cold need melts in loves bright flare,
Desire fuels desire.

 

Past wounds cut so deep,
Stiff scars formed around his soul,
"Now his heart can't open.

The salve for her aches,
A tender touch of spirits,
Nothing less seems real.

Well matched pains and needs
Intertwine to stop their growth,
No room left for self.

 

Tires spin on dirt drive,
Wordless shout of how he feels,
Love scares him too much.

Lipstick scrawl on mirror,
Farewell note of angry pain,
Love hurts her too much.

His fear brings her pain,
Her need for care brings him fear,
Love drives them apart.

 

 

 

 

Love In The Afternoon Sun - Will Whitted - 9/19/98

 

Soft breath tickles,
My naked thigh,
With gentle panting,
And tight-closed eyes,


Azriel presses,
Her warmth against,
The tender stroking,
Of my willing hand,


Pure and sweet,
With no agenda,
We savor this,
Intimate moment,


Conditionless love,
With few demands,
Promising only,
What's ours to choose,


Affection confirmed,
In purring repose,
We share the bond,
Of twelve-neuron love.
