WAITING FOR ASCENSION
Waiting for ascension, without much retention
Of all the keys I'm s'posed to see, remember, be and mention.
S'posed to sound excited, expectant and elucid,
But wily ways, long days, delays… tempt one to take antacid!
People often chortle, at channel'rs of immortals;
I try to find, receptive mind, stay open to this portal!
All the news seems normal, 'matic, stale 'n static-
Same 'ol stuff, shock 'n fluff… makes one feel asthmatic!
Will it really happen, mankind and earth to ether?
Or is it all, large and small, a dream of those in fever?
Searching on computer, go'in' within for wisdom-
Will this ever man-i-fest… or stay we stuck on pablum!?

TIME AND SCHEDULE, I’M TIRED OF YOU
This poem was given to me, along with another, entitled “Time and Schedule, I'm Tired of You” Both came in one morning, and along with images for them (that really came first, though I did not know, when Muse put them in my brain/heart/soul initially, that they were to be illustrations for poems... or what they were, really, they just started bubbling up. Then came the poems, it all came together, and I said to myself, "Oh, I see!"
Thank you Muse. (I have a really great Muse!)
Here, since it explains well the genesis of this and its "sister poem" is the journal entry I wrote, explaining the two poems and how they came to be:
TWO NEW POEMS FROM MERTON'S MUSE
More and more (though he has always known this), Merton realizes that he is just a receiver, a transmitter. The Muse is in charge, knows all, gives all, just in the way that it is "supposed" to be given. When all is said and done, Merton wants to meet (and fully understand his Muse)!
Dear Ones,
Muse has given me two new poems, both this morning! Thought you might enjoy them. I print them for you below my signature. I am going to do an illustration for each (that is percolating... for now I am using two previously finished art pieces to illustrate them). Actually the new images for the poems (not drawn yet, but I think they may get done today) came first. They have been bubbling up over the last few days, as I have been staring at the empty art board on my art desk in the den.
I think it is fascinating how the Muse knows what is coming next, gives images, suddenly gives poems, knows the order of things, when they will be finished... just how it all will happen. I am rather a receiver, I think. My job is to respond and draw it, type it, colorize it, put it out into the world, etc. I want to meet my Muse, when all is said and done. It is a spirit, an angel, the Holy Spirit, God, my higher self... all of the above? So many questions to ask when all is said and done.
Anyway, here they are. Hope you enjoy them... my little gift to you (and sort of representing what it "is up" with me... or, "s'up" as a friend often texts (to hubby... I do not really know how to do texting very well... and I think I am glad of that! Wink).
Love, peace, and creative vibes to each of you!
