The Cat's Meow

The Cat’s Meow



Sitting in my kitchen

after teaching philosophy

I feel I’ve discovered the meaning of life:

we’re all like white blood cells

in the body of the universe

doing what we can to help

when we are called

just like my father did as a fireman whenever there was a fire.

When this thought ends

from my rooftop I hear a meowing cry

I might have ignored another time

but since answering calls is tonight the meaning of life

I walk out onto the roof

where I see a skinny calico cat.

I give it some milk.

In the morning with my girlfriend’s help

I pull the cat down the fire escape

while the cat grips tightly on the railing.

Since I am stronger than a seven pound cat

I bring the cat to the parking lot

where it immediately hides under a car.

My girlfriend says you now have a cat.

I name the cat Uni for Universe.

His name and meows often remind me

keep meowing for response

keep responding to meows.

December 25 Each Day’s Birth Day

no solid food
frees from moods
so wind I breathe
dances in me
nourishing cells
guiding me well

I’d like to fly
even if I die
by diving in
to loving wind
but I’m a man
who walks on sand


when moved by greed
to rush seize squeeze
I want to scream
in this bad dream
stone please be bread
or I’ll be dead

but freeze my greed
until you seed
desires to free
humanity
with loving care
that’s always there

pray all adore
the folks next store
not just me
it’s too easy
divinity’s
in all we see

all hearts please bleed
for we who need
caring that all
unique ways called
may freely be
community

We are the Sons and Daughters of Earth, Air, Fire and Water

Because I am a prodigal son,
far from parents, lost amidst pigs longing for the pods they eat,
I go to have my life transformed by John the Baptizer.
When immersed by John’s hands
my head feels he understands
we need to be re-conceived
by a love that always frees.
My first gulp of air
feels breath’s a prayer
creating with love
peaceful as a dove
birth of an adult child
who’ll find how in the wild
earth water sun and sky
parent us or we die

Who is Our Father

Where is Our Father


A childless old priest, Zachariah,

honored to alone burn incense in the Holy Temple in Jerusalem,

is paralyzed with awe when a radiant messenger greets him saying,

“Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son.”
Zachariah doubts these words promising that his dream will come true

so he is dammed speechless until my cousin John is born.



Elizabeth’s pregnancy, like my mother Mary’s, is traumatic.
Elizabeth hides for five months.
After her son is born, Zachariah lets Elizabeth name him John,
although no one in the family ever had that name.

Zachariah, like my father Joseph, must have wondered who

fathered his son.

No wonder John and I look for a father in the sky.

Unsentimental Journey

Unsentimental Journey

may we remember
life's through innumerable
deaths when we forget

Aware Air Cares

Every spring we travel to Jerusalem where our Passover Seder
forever inspires us to create new ways to be free.
When I am twelve, while my parents are journeying home,
they are shocked I am missing.
After searching for three days
they are amazed to find me teaching adults in the temple.
I tell my negligent parents to join my new family
breathing in nourishing air
a parent who always cares.

Freedom from Trauma

Freedom from Trauma

When the king hears that a miraculous child is born
he murders all infants in our neighborhood.
I escape to Egypt with the trauma of knowing
that my existence
after conception
and again after birth
causes catastrophe.
In Egypt singing songs on Passover
imagining we are slaves yearning and learning to be free
moves us to believe we’ll find through life’s tragedies
miraculous ways

Unending Mending

Before I take a breath my body and blood destroy love
by swelling my mother Mary’s womb
I move her fiance Joseph to divorce her
until Joseph’s love for Mary inspires him to hear in a dream
that a messenger from god is my father.
When Joseph and Mary marry
I am in a loving family
who move people who know us
when disconnected
to connect imaginatively.

love deeper than we know.

to kith and kin all ‘round?

One Man was an Island

A moat sludged with fear protects me--
thanks for wading with me to thee.

Mass attracts
love attacks.

Cry Laughing?

Let's not complain
some times in pain
so we won't suffer--
why not laughter?

No More Prosing

It seems to me we try to pass
as just a simple lad and lass--
but speaking words that others use--
is our lip’s way of self-abuse.
What if instead of trying prose
we spoke in poems wearing no clothes
and if folks think we're demented--
kiss them well with words fermented?

Hide Truth

Yum yum yum yum
in shade and sun
from lips to bum
we've won--we're one.

When I’m empty

I am awed free

Unbelievably Easy

Accept unbelievably challenging
our lives, then it's easier managing.

Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder

Since love was missing from the start
unknown screams from unknown hearts
for unknown love that has no end
were unknown prayers helping us mend.

Sole to Soul to Sole to Soul

My body grows

truths my mind knows

feeling from toes

where beauty rose.

Dumb Wisdom

It's O.K. not to know anything
since we can talk about everything.

Present Making Past Future

Words, deeds
are seeds:
shape pasts
to blast
now--know
to grow
today
to pray
for all
we toil.

The Art of the Fart

When I rush into my mind
and leave my behind behind--
my rear, not happy ignored,
starts to fart chords towards the Lord.

Micro’s Macro-Cosmos

“never miss

Pain Rain

When loving pain,

hear how again

with strange refrain

pain guides to gain—

begins to wane.

Love's Freeway

We are one body:
godly though oddly
when driven apart
still move heart to heart.

Our Divine Comedy

We describe with words
truths that can’t be heard--
even this ditty--
which at least's pretty.

Reign of Pain Leaves Unstrained

How healing to give up the scam

of trying to be more than I am.

It Takes a Certain Audacity to Bring Our Life to Language

Uh! Ow!

Oh! Wow!

Shall We Sing?

Within each breath songs
moving us to sing-along.

Hi Love

Unending space and time's
overflowing passion
blooming out of heart and mind
this dear moment fashions.

Stone's Home

He tells his story

about his temptations in the wilderness

because he needs listeners to be there with him

when temptations—which left him for awhile--

come again.

So let's join him in his desert

and learn how to overcome temptations.



**

In my wilderness I, Jeshua, am a wild animal amidst wild animals--

no longer like the domestic animals in the manger I was born in.

I am fueled by a fury I can't bury.

Beast please be tamed--but keep your flame.

A fox circles me—almost within reach

before I throw a stone shooing the fox back towards its den.

I have no home—

except these stones.




For forty days I eat no solid food,

to clear body and mind

so the wind I breathe

dances with me

and through me

nourishing my cells

guiding me

to nourish well.



An urge arises

before my eyes

to rush, grab, seize,

rather than grow

with wind’s love flow.

Let me gnaw stone--

stone feels like home.

Stone please be bread

or I’ll be dead

I want to scream

in this bad dream.

But we can’t live

on bread alone--

My appetite must move within

the graceful dance we have with wind.

Freeze all my greed

until I’m freed

when cold heart bleeds

for all who need!

Wary Serpents Conceive Innocent Doves

Nothing else is worth recording about Jeshua's life until, at thirty,
he goes to have his life transformed by his cousin John.
Jeshua might have been like the prodigal son he will soon talk about:
far from his parents, lost amidst pigs, longing for the pods they eat.

**

Before John is conceived,
his old father, the priest Zachariah, in the Temple's holiest of holy rooms
on the day for atonement,
does not believe words he hears saying his wife, Elizabeth will bear him a
son.
Doubting this voice makes Zachariah unable to speak.
Elizabeth does conceive.
Like her cousin, Mary, Elizabeth seems ashamed to be with child.
Elizabeth hides for five months.
John’s mere existence in the womb, keeps his father silent for nine months.
Only after the boy is born and his father agrees to name him "John,"
although no one in the family has that name,
is Zachariah able to speak.
When John is strong enough, he escapes from his family.
He lives in the wilderness—
until, at 29, he is moved to dip people in the water, commanding them to
Let float away
misguided ways—
so breaths of air
guide you to share.

When Jeshua’s body is immersed by John’s hands,
Jeshua finally feels someone who understands:
Jeshua like John was rejected by his father.
They need to find in their wilderness
that water and air are like parents who care.
Jeshua emerges from John's baptizing water peaceful as the dove
that is drawn to them.
With Jeshua's first breath out of the water,
he feels he's a child of water and skies wherever he flies.

Good Friday 2010

Affection for Resurrection

Earth, air, fire, water bloom

lives through womb, playroom, tomb. . .

Feeling Healing

After his birth in a stable, like an animal,
the people in his neighborhood call him a bastard.
He is an unwelcomed, cursed, outcast.
But he loves like domestic animals love.
When his parents tell him the story
of shepherds adoring him after he was born
he remembers that love
is as healing
as cuddling a lamb.

**

When the king hears that a miraclous child is born
he tries to kill the boy
by murdering all the children in the neighborhood.
The boy escapes to Egypt, with the trauma of knowing
that his body and blood, in birth as in conception, causes catastrophe.
In Egypt, a stranger in a strange land,
he begins to learn that a carpenter has freeing hands.

**

When his parents travel to Jerusalem for the Passover Seder,
he scares them by remaining in Jerusalem,
while they journey home.
After searching for three days
they are shocked to find him teaching elders in the temple
about our guide in the skies.
who he claims is his real father.

Who Are You? .

You-I merge in night
arising with distinction--
please love in daylight.

Yin-Yang

Yin-Yang

Comfort pain.
Joy again!

Traveling Light

Even when delayed

we are on our way.

Cosmos is Us

Outside is within

(identical twins)

expanding so free

seas of galaxies,

dark-matter, space-time--

all embraced by minds

with much room to spare

for our bodies’ care.

God’s Calling and Answering

Believing everything happens for a reason
reveals that everything happens for a reason
such as getting this poem
or not getting this poem.

We’re Doing a Hecka of a Job

Maized, crazed, amazed,

creating days

ablase, unfazed.

What Looks Bad is a Miracle

Yosef sees his fiance’s belly swollen with child.
Yosef’s love moves him to divorce Miriam quietly.
The child’s body and blood, even before he takes a breath,
breaks his parents apart
until Yosef’s love for Miriam inspires him to dream
that a messenger from God is the father of Miriam’s child--
for of course all parents are messengers from God.
Miriam agrees.
Yosef and Miriam’s ecstasy as they dance when they marry
transforms their disgrace into joy
for all couples however they couple.

Eros Unfroze

Love and Outrage

are the same fire:

burning, engaged,

healing desire.

Dead Man Dancing

Stronger than need to cling

to truths I like to sing

is an urge blasting through

that’d love to dance with you

Loving Our Way Out of Confusion

My father and I argue
which is longer,
“longer” or “longest.”
I say, "longest by definition is longest."
He says, "but longer is longer.”
We continue repeating ourselves,
loving that neither of us can ever lose.
When I remind myself that life is more than I know
I hear him say,
“You can’t know that life is more than you know.”
And I respond, "I know."

The Meaning of Life

Sitting in my kitchen

after teaching philosophy

I feel I’ve discovered the meaning of life.

We are all like white blood cells

in the body of the universe:

we do what we can to help

when we are called--

just like my father did as a fireman whenever there was a fire.

As this thought ends,

I hear a meowing cry from my rooftop.

I might have ignored it at another time.

It is very late and I am very tired.

But I have to respond after discovering the meaning of life.

I walk out and see a small skinny calico cat.

I give it some milk.

In the morning, with my girlfriend’s help,

I take the cat down the fire escape.

The cat grips tightly on the railing.

But I am stronger than a 7 pound cat.

I put it on the ground and it immediately hides under a car.

My girlfriend says,

“You have a cat.”

I name it “Uni” for “Universe.”

His name sometimes reminds me about the meaning of life,

and that in our universe

father like cat

can meow.

Happy Life to You

My oldest friend, ever-lovin’ Richie,
wants, “a positive and excellent poem”
for his birthday. Our friendship, luckily,
is a positive and excellent poem.

Wisdom

Smart heart.

Regulating for Congregating

From absolute zero--

radiates endless glow

warming through cold I know

allowing me to grow

indifferent

or passionate,

compassionate,

or pay the rent.

Everything Happens for a Reason

Most of us listening keep our eyes closed
while one of my students in prison
is reading a story written by a boy who goes blind.
The boy discovers a light inside
that feels joyful except when he's afraid.
When I look for my light within
it feels harsh.
After class is over, my student says, "You fell asleep while I was reading."
When I protest, "No way,"
light in her eyes plays with mine.

Self-destruction for Construction

Self-destruction reveals a night

I might look at without fright

while comforted being no one

on the way to being someone.

Goody Goody

Goody Goody

When I did good
because I should
I did not know
good from me flows.

When Words Kiss Life is Bliss

When our words are kisses in disguise
people might think we are very wise.

Happy Birth Days

Grace from ground through skies
springing me and you
feeling endless I's
birth in all we do.

Love's Art

In romance
Sex is dance.

Hide or Seek

Hide or Seek

I hide who I am
in all ways I can
til I’m kissed by air
seducing me here.

hi nate

Words Versus Life

Words don’t take my life from me
to turn it into a story
or even into a song--
That’s wrong! So wrong! Very wrong.


May my life infuse my words
so my life’s felt and heard
in words that reveal—not hide
what is inside and outside.

Honor Our Partners

When I stop to glance--
stalks in frozen dance
do not let me pass
until we en masse
feel choreographed.

Heal Heels

Sing zing.
Bite right.
Gait great.
Play day.

Spiritual Physics

All doing is bathed in silence.
Dark matter holds us in balance.

Gee’s Us?

May we dare see
beyond blessed we?
Prayers reveal
how surreal’s real?

24/7 for Heaven

Rejoice in successes--
Compassion for messes.

A Physical Law

All we touch touches
moving us earthy with love
roots desiring blooms.

A Friend Through the End?

When I walk
the sound of footsteps
meet me, greet me.
Whose?

Roomy

While I am lying on a horizontal tree trunk
split off from the vertical trunk
you massage my body
feeling the tree trunk dance inside my body
with much of me made of air
with room to spare
so what’s around, in or over ground
dances with the tree in me
and thee.

Divining

Because the world was unkind
I tried to hide inside my mind.
There I thought our world’s embraced
by blessings from a distant place.

But folks are forks—upside down,
the handle’s our mind-full crown,
by nature we seek and find
what in and around's divine.

Bless Flesh

All of our cells
are loving wells--
drink from these troughs
enables thoughts
and all we feel
to help us heal
singing to say
what body prays.

___________________________________

Play Day

She jumps on me,
squeals, “My horsey,”
pulling my ears
she has no fear
letting me know
which way to go
til moves are fun
and everyone
moving with me
may play horsey.

Snow Job

Snow on a sunny winter day
is more than I can ever say.
Reading this poetry from me
I hope you don't wholly agree.

Kissing What’s Missing

Difficult emotions, like envy--
when fine-tuned to move easily
reveal what I want’s really me
who hears to be and's here to see.

Out of My Mind Aligned

I have been standing
on my head too long.
Feet find floor dancing
while mouth sings songs.

Chants in Church

We chant: “Blessings Be We”

A woman on a rug is massaging her knee.
I walk over, she smiles. Kneeling, I put my hand on her knee.
Hand dances healing with knee
until we become more than we.

We chant: "We’re God Light"

Our eyes close.
The chant flows.
We’re not there--
just singing air.

We chant: “Help Us Be Divinity”

Eyes opening hazily see
we might be infinity
dancing so free
into hand-knee.

Oy Yoy Joy:

Day grows night.

Dark grows light.

Oy annoys

growing joy.

Divine Within Finds All Kin

We have an inner diviner--
divine’s everywhere we find her.

Our Only Security Comes From Learning to Dance on the Head of a Pin*

Insubstantial, I shake
until I am awake.

*This poem's title was written by Soren Kierkegaard

Undressin' Depression

When I lack desire
to live my life
instead of self-strife
I take many breaths--
feel my life’s death
that’s buried so deep
only waking sleep
reveals light-fire
that never tires.

Just Desserts

Heartbeat, breath, flesh, weight,
bones, mind, desire, skin
deliciously play
without with within.

Happy Valentine

Your love’s blood red.
Your love’s sky blue.
Your love’s a treat.
Much love to you.

Sometimes We Feel Our Love Is Real

When love flows well
it’s worth the hell:
but just to meet
is also sweet.

Music of Our Tears

Words can be shields
from what we feel
keep us away
by what we say
and what we think
til thought/words stink
so--heart organs
urge words from moans.

God’s Odd

Problems with what’s divine
start when I feel God's found:
I grab God with my mind
cut God off from the ground--
stop our God from growing
beyond all my knowing.

Bubble Beyond Trouble

We'll keep our glow
when all our parts
know how to flow
touched by our hearts.

Happy Valentine Days

No love, no worth
when conceived, birthed,
folks emptied me--
sucked ecstasy.
Needing too much love
with none to give--
so love when here
brought too much fear
until I learned
to love me true
easily earn
true love from you.

___________________________________

Sappy Happy

With mind communing
as body’s moving
on ground planting
each moment’s loving
when sap’s arising
through brain surprising.

Compassion or Else

When I don’t feel my feelings
they invade and start me reeling.
When I don’t feel your feelings
they invade and start me reeling.

Gootchy Gootchy Goo

Mother Earth loving Father Sky
keep growing us--their big I's.

Expressing’s Caressing

I love growling ouch
when feeling a grouch.

Mind and Heart Now Don't Part:

Knowledge marrying intuition’s
communication’s fruition:
Art-science extends from earth through air:
you read my e-mail God knows where?

Patient Learning

Some of my greatest gifts
come from repeated pains.
May I remember this
when pains gift me again:

Pains cry, "You might not need
to heal what feels like woes--
we are weeds, full of seeds,
growing balms from thought foes?”

Base Grace

We've powers like showers--
that nourish and clean like rain.
We've forces like horses--
carrying us on manes.
We've a love like a glove--
caressing through all pores.
We've selves like elves--
opening all closed doors.

Our urges keep surging--
exploding buried ore
moving sounds emerging
as poem-songs from our core.

All Nations Under God

May greater us
always expand--
loving, free, just--
all promised lands.

1-28-10

We Too Trees in Eden’s Garden

Mind, will, sex, self
don't rule by force--
our cells, all selves
smart with eros

creating wise
loving presence
to franchise
giving presents.

Oh My My My My . . .

I’ve always tried to be
the better kind of me.
I'd also love to see
my entire potpourri
playing joyfully
to tolerable degrees.

Communion's Breath

Silence that's me
shares silent thee.

Very Frequent Flyer

Freed when aware
we're made of air
words breathed by wind
go out, come in
while within skin
we're everywhere.

Seeded to Succeed

Our genes move us to grow
from one cell through sorrow.

Womb Within

So much space inside our atoms
room for all--from Eve and Adam.

Better than Better

Better than Better

More fun than to see
I'm better than thee:
we way better be
than just you and me.

Whirled Without End

Whirled Without End

All’s unending:
like night’s starring
through our being
all’s travelling--
words we’re hearing
faces seeing
bodies feeling
remembering.

Refining Our Timing

When you ask, “What’s the secret of humor?”
You laugh when I interrupt with “Timing.”
Is our secret of laughing while living--
surprising-- with slow, close, stop, more adore?

Tree Ease

Stressless science:
events infused
hugged with silence
freely amuse.

We'll Travel Along, Singing Our Song--Side by Side:

Take a breath--

all is well

after death

--beyond hell.

Space-Time's Divine

When selves flow free
endless space-time
awakes to weave fine
our tapestry
so spaciously
so timely kind.

Passion is Compassion

Why only be me
when I'm also thee?

Lose Some—Win All

If nature is an experiment
doing miraculously well--
a small price for accomplishment’s
travelling through a little hell.

Hooray

Hooray

Pray.

Loving Breathing and Walking

Each step, each breath

loves earth and sky

through you and I

all life to death.

Child Inside Touched Outside

Inner child’s screaming
is comforted breathing
air, feeling care,
support from chair.

Spell "God" Backwards, Fetch Heavenwards

I love people when we’re dancing--
our bodies are like friendly dogs--
and we’re really always dancing--
so we are always friendly dogs.
Wag, wag, rough rough, woof, woof, bow wow
run, roll, leap, fall, fetch, beg, pet, chow.

Micro's Macro-Cosmos

All is so near,

so here, so dear.

Through Death Let Us Not Part

May our dance feel like we’re eating
us again tastefully treating.

Skeletons Keep that Grin

Jaws with and without skin—
and pelvic bowls always grin--
so even when bones turn dust,
smiles are habits we can trust.

"Giddy" Comes from "Dancing with Gods"

Ga, da, geh, dee—primal sounds--
bounce my body up and down
chanting more ah's, u's, e’s
non-sense dance me giddy.

Meditation Celebration

Seat’s sweet.
Breathe deep.
We meet—
our treat.

Whatever Forever

To live unstuck--
singing-dancing--
even when mucked
numb--die laughing.

Put Up or Shut Up

May all put-downs springing up in me
move me to see who we really be.

It's Nice To Be We

It’s comforting to imagine I’m my friends
sitting with me—and when we feel our hearts
we know we love one another even
if they or I forget—we’re not apart.

We Never Swim in the Same River

When we're flowing with our flow
we're always more than we know.

Tao-How

Stay with flow
to now know
always new
me and you.
