Living The Fulness Of Life
the fullness of life is not in the overflowing
neither is it the shortage and the drying over
contemplate on a glass of milk
nothing spilt
nothing wasted
every dropp
inside your throat
flowing
satisfying just enough
for that thirst
in your heart

Stranger In The Crowd
(words & music by winfield scott)
Ive been standing on a corner
Since a quarter after seven
I was down to my last cigarette
And the clock in the window
At a quarter to eleven
I was watching all the people
Passing by me going places
Just the loneliest guy in the town
Looking for a friendly smile
But all I see were faces
And then, just like the taste of milk and honey
I found the stranger Ive been looking for
Like a wave, my cup of love was overflowing
I knew the stranger in the crowd
And I would be stranger no more
The love that comes on the corner
At a quarter to eleven
I thought you were to good to be true
All my life I had believed
That angels only live in heaven
But now, we share the taste of milk and honey
Each day is sweeter than the day before
My cup runned overflowing
Because the stranger in the crowd
And I would be stranger no more
Deep inside, my cup of love was overflowing
I found the stranger Ive been looking for
Like a wave, my cup of love was overflowing
I knew the stranger in the crowd
And I would be stranger no more

The Water Drop
The miraculous water drop
Falling from the sky,
The romantic rain dropp
Dancing proudly on
The lower lip of a maiden,
The Divine water drop
As an elixir to the thirsty throat;
The dainty dropp for a hungry stomach;
The charming dew drop,
Shining on the morning leaves;
The kind water drop
Flowing into the fields,
The friendly tear drop
To soothe the wounded heart;
The holy dropp that washes our sins;
The Master water dropp
At the moral to tune stable
To the ups and downs of life
And for selfless service
To the co-species on the earth;
And lo, the Wild water drop
To flood and drought us
At our absurd misuse!

Nude In The Mirror
on a cold night
blood rushes in my head
lust blushes
and love says it cares
and ask that
we be tender and gentle to this
hugs and kisses
bodies rubbing and hands caressing
playing the music of desire
on the piano keys of the body
trembling at first and
then softens to give in to the dance
of love
eyes closed one sees the color of the world
beyond the imagination of light
the wind knows
what the dark night is adoring
mutuality, respect and openness
and then the closeness
breathtaking
a series of explosions
unhindered by your warm touch
and licks and fullness
of tongues unspeaking but
understanding the need and the
flight of two souls
fusing as one and then melting
flowing like syrup of honey
on the side of the glass
dip and sip and swallow the most
beautiful moment and then
the satisfying fullness of silence
sweet so sweet

I Want It Smooth And Classy
i like to have a glass
of wine shaped in the body
of a beautiful woman
i like to drink
something smooth and
classy flowing inside
my throat
on an evening like this.

With a dropp of…
To utter ten words sweet
And then one word bitter
Is like a glass of milk
With a dropp of poison.
The purpose is to give
Poison and not the milk.

Overflowing
The glass you have in your hand
Overflowing juice
On the white mantel
You laugh at me
I am filled with envy
And then you notice
The mess
Of this overflowing madness
You want to make things
Clean again
You take the excess
And throw them away
You rub it with rags
The stains are there and
You regret
These matters of
What you do not need
I wait
And inside me I too laugh
You could have given things away
Throw them all
If you only ask me
That was what I did when I was young
And too hardheaded
I’ve known what overflowing madness is
Once, twice, thrice
Almost I was destroyed
And I did the throwing before it was dark
And it was not too late
And I had no regrets

That is matter
At home
Cat kiss
The milk...
With drink...
Rat run fast
Cat also
Run fast...
Milk was
Wasted on flour...
Milk wasted
No problem
Cat afried for
Sumall rat...!
That is matter...!

Murderer (You Are)
It comes unexpectedly
Breaks dream...
Disrupt skin
Penetrates inside
Disrupt entrails
Body's burning
Murderer!!!
(You are) murderer
Thirst for death
Escape from the pest
Nightmare of killing
Seized inside demands blood
You move on hunt, satisfying
(Your) wildest instincts
Murderer!!!
(You are) murderer (you are)
Excitement with blood tearing of inert body
Violation of innocence for satisfying greed
It comes the end
Of perverted game
Death...

When Sunny Turns Blue
In a funk?
Feeling anxious?
Feeling blue?
Take heart,
Here's what you do;
Take a walk,
Around the block
Contemplate your life,
Take stock
Forget the News,
It's mostly bad
Shoot your TV
You'll be glad
If your broke,
Have no money?
Lost your job?
Gone...
'Milk n' honey'?
Take heart!
These words be true;
Find someone to love
When sunny turns blue
With new eyes you'll see;
Each dropp of rain,
Contains a vast ocean,
Every leaf's a great tree
Lovers two by two,
Soon become many,
Happiness plenty!
Remember this well,
When sunny turns blue

A Certain Negligible Concept
Certainly attainable
Once masked off
The root of the heart
Might explain
Different directions
Different situations
Taken hoofed discourses
Even if they seem unleashed
Sun staring eyes
Oasis heart
Or a dropp of water
Lacking the throat
Some thirst to quench
Yes they do
Certainly know what I mean
These get a core importance
Once the desert ways are paved
By unspeakable hunger for some sense

Yogic...
searching for clarity
the best of which is an empty slate
that which we mistake sometimes
for clarity actually is one that contains nothing
as though
emptiness is one of those that has
nothing inside it
as though when things are in their fullness
like a flower in full bloom
as though
fullness is mess and must be
avoided
as though fullness is pain and emptiness
is unloading and must heretofore
be marked as the
ballroom
happiness so to speak
messy is noise and the empty window is clear
but the pool of water without the disturbance of the wind
is full and yet
mirrors some clarifications
that you can see your face unadulterated by grief
undiluted by any dropp of lamentation
one dives farther to see what is real and perhaps
sleep for a while
drowsiness of reality
illusion is a little bit tipsy because of so much thoughts
unthink, undream,
unmind.

Flowing Glower
Now you know
Places where I live
When I couldn't grow
Downward you'll soon drift
On the sailless boat
Nothing left to give
All I see is throat
Flowing glower
Witless knower
Seedless sower
If it's all a lie
Will you realise?
Right before we die
My soul leads to the wrong
Changeling of the night
Now that I bleed a song
Purely based on fright
Sad with my face so long
I have this new sight
Flowing glower
Witless knower
Five steps lower
If I tell a lie
Will you realise?
Numb the pain
Way high and real low
Now it feels the same
Have love or feel so
Hollowed out with shame
Hoping to see the day
With my brand new name
Flowing glower
Seedless sower
I'm bipolar
If I die tonight
Will you be alright?
Then in time you'll find
Thirst becomes boring
Quest your heart and mind
Now that we're soaring
Over space and time
Done with exploring
All you are is mine
Flowing glower
Ruthless flower
Breathless blower
If it's all a lie
Will you realise?
Seek and you shall find
Everything inside
Read between the lines
I'll show you the light
Here in the afterlife

Godly thirst....
there is this
thirst in me, not in the tongue
the mouth denies it
there is this thirst
that water or wine or
juice
cannot quench
it is a thirst that forever
stays
a dropp of rain
a dew from a leaf
a word from my Creator
shall satisfy it.

On & On
Well, I dont understand this love I have inside;
Would it be the same without that twinkle in your eye?
And would it be the same if you came and said goodbye
Forever?
I only knokw that the love that I feel
Doesnt come from somewhere inside of me,
But I see it keeps on growing,
So I guess Ill just keep going,
cause Im confidently knowing
Its from the lord.
And it grows on and on,
Flowing on and on.
Dont you see we just cant hide love?
>from growing on and on,
Flowing on and on.
Theres so many ways to say I love you.
I love you.
So I pray for eyes to see your needs,
And ears to hear your spirit gently plead.
Well I think I understand this love I have inside;
Its coming from the father; it will never be denied,
Even if you came to me right now and said goodbye
Forever.
Forever.
Forever.
On and on,
Flowing on and on.
Dont you see we just cant hide love?
>from growing on and on,
Flowing on and on.
Got to show this love in my heart!
Growing on and on,
Flowing on and on.
Dont you see we just cant hide love?
>from growing on and on,
Flowing on and on.
Got to show this love in my heart!
Growing on and on,
Flowing on and on.
Dont you see we just cant hide love?
>from growing on and on,
Flowing on and on.
Got to show this love in my heart!

No food is wasted
The milk poured over the idol’s head
Trickles down to reach the earth.
The milk is not spilt; germs are there to eat.
The milk spoilt means germs have eaten it.
The milk stolen by the cat is not a waste.
No organic food goes waste
And is broken down to elements
In cycles of feeding by organisms.
The elements, the end product,
Serves as food to the plant kingdom.

Something Mystical Tonight...
a very sick
soul,
emaciated
transparency
behind
a glass door
it manifests
itself
inside a sore throat
a dry cough
whooping
throughout the
night
depression time
anxiety grows
like five headed
dragons
this is no myth
this is real
you want to
cure the body
feverish and
thirsty
on pale hands
a shrinking
veins
webs of spiders
cover the
eyes
confess upon
yourself
be both
priest and penitent
be silent
sit down
contemplate upon
the goodness of
this universe
let your spirit
flow
and be washed
anew
it is not late
you can still be.

The real intention
He wrote to me many words good of me
And ended with a word sharp about me.
The intention was to reprimand me.
A glass of milk mixed with a dropp of poison.
