Mystic Soup Poem by Butch Decatoria

Mystic Soup

I've been fed with
Alphabet
& crocodile tears

Chicken soup
For the soul
His love inside me
Took with the book
All my human sweat
Tackling
Climbs so biblical

Greatest is Everest's
Pinnacle peak
To find
& Touch Zen
Zanadu
Shangri La
At the foot of heaven,
A door to Shambala
Rainbows to Oz
The forbidden kingdoms
Spirit realm…

In Between
Infinite
The Absolute

Inside is light
A place named perfection
All good
Mornings
Forever new…
Then again
I recall
Being fed upon
A sluice
Draining out the poetry
Of being
One
Before it is
Spoken
Words verbs lyrically
Painting Music /
The emotions' rain
Coloring pain
On windows gray
The thunder

Upon the heart reigns
Honored
Life
Far more
Dignified

Thru the eye
Carrying one soul

To where the blue
Upon
Our oceans' breath
Clouds
Abound with sky
Temperatures
Tuscany temperate
Close to pristine
Before
It's
Go'ne Green
There's
No pollution
Nor global warming.

And thru baby blue
Windows
Soul I see you
Feel

Soft comes the clouds
Yet
To be made loud
With thundering drums
Precursor to lightning

There
Might
Then
Lead to stairs
Upwards

Yon pearly gates
& Nirvana's
Everlasting peace

A grace

The light at first sight
All perfect love
(Upon every face)

Like Smiles from glowing parents
"Welcome to the world"
I promise you, baby
The future of us
Cherished
offspring

You'll not know that sort
Of suffering,
Or dying
Of hunger
Pangs the same as pain
Or hurt that won't go away
Lonely and loveless
More mean than meaning

Promise love child
We live to raise you / up
Happy...

I've been fed with much

The poets'
Mystic soup

A beautiful joy
To learn to slurp it all up
Because Life is
Delicious
& Vicious goes playing coy

I spell my mind
with a why
Without a doubt

Brighter visions
Telling threadbare eyes
Of needles
To Storms / twisters
Not licorice
Twizzler Cylindrical

But cyclone spiral
Of ennui tearful
Otherness

The afterimage of life
Is heaven
next

And she said
"Love me as the earth
Or as the sky
With awakenings
Birth
A mind
No fear of nothing"

For nothing is impossible
Now Then everything
Is more probable

See for yourself
With light
of truth
Seeing you
newly / beginning

Sight farther seeing
With heart made
Doubtless
For believing

In you
Love / soul

ever illumine.

Death goes flesh
When the soul gots leave

The brilliant cries
Spinning
The distant stars
Look
beyond blind
Life & such beliefs

The Tree
The Ladder
The Sun
The Eye
The One

Feed me shine
Our Life
full of Love...
The kind
That shaped me
Into a poet

Spoken word
The poem flies

When the heart opens
Honest as the sun
The dark did not know it

The breath of evergreen poems
The kiss of liquid
Water
Fall
Lagoons

Drinking wisdom
Au natural

River like the soul
Soul River to have drank

Eternal love's
Je suis
Poetry.

Our alphabet
soup
Awe Life,
Oh cup!
Drink up the hours
Rain for tears
All
waterfall
Showers.

Oh poem of love,
You've got the power!
