Free Your Mind…   Please everyone let’s all try and Tolerate one another for an hour Take your seats please…. Please gentlemen   It’s taken a thousand years and Hours more of dire pleas, not to Mention all the eccentric incentives Just to make this congregation a reality Much gratitude is due to our great staff For keeping them from strangling one Another with their individual “truth” And ideological theories It’d appear the more sublime the Mind; the more one recedes back to Obnoxious antics of adolescence Without the charm of innocence to Help justify one’s suffering What an unenviable chore this lil Brilliant idea turned out to be Well I best get this show on the way Before they get entangled again.   Alright then gentlemen; I’d like to Thank you all for joining us today And without any further dues Let’s begin our discussion with Mister Plato; Sir if you would please tell us about The source of your wisdom and the Learning tools utilized to elevate your Conscience   “My source! I will not be degraded By such obtuse line of questioning I shall grant you one thing and one Thing only; Unbridled thought, defiant Unrestrained, and autonomous THINKING”   Okay so you’d like us to believe All the ground breaking ideas and Unprecedented theories were of Your own and exclusively Manifested by free thought and bereft Of all external influences or teachings?   “Certainly I listened, but I was never Restricted by what I heard In-fact the shared knowledge and the Exchange of energy only heightened The experience, and encouraged my Efforts, there’s no greater motivator Than the spirit of creative competition”   So that which you acquired from Others inspired your own independent Thoughts   “Yes, for I questioned their validity”   Interesting; any others shared The apostle’s path unto enlightenment? Ah yes; Mister Aristotle very well sir The great Socrates, the beloved Rumi Thank you, and well it’s unanimous Apparently we’ve finally found a common Ground, thank you Doctor Carl Jung… Very interesting   That brings us to my next question; Since you represent the rarified air of Astute, and the revolutionary schools of Thought today still, can you tell me why Has man fallen into such a drought in our Theoretical evolution, and bankrupt of Creativity, deprived of new landmark And lasting philosophy, rare have been The defiant muses, and their visionary Contributions Why, and what do you suggest may be The cause and the corporate?   “Man no longer heeds the call from within Detached from intuition, blinded he may Never again view the wor1ld through visions You imprison yourselves by flesh, yet this Life’s merely the physical experience of your Spirit, spirituality has been tainted by Dogmas, and religions, thus as your Devotion remains bound by trends and Obscene obsessions; the ever revolving Wheel of your arbitrary faith keeps you Guessing and your virtues perverse Fads demand your commitment to greed Slavery and debt keep your mind busy with Bills, down on your knees to worship The paper divinity, alas the notorious Conceit of the “elite” feeds and elongates This infamy, economic tyranny, ritual Alchemy, all the hocus pocus hides the Perversion behind a shroud of secrecy The primeval Gods, noble cons, and Militant Jesuits, today science and Mathematics bleed your devotion to The almighty E=mc2 Love’s merely recalled in fables, broken And weak the effervescent bond serves Only as a fix for your loneliness, and need Emotional awareness, and compassion Only attest to undesirable gullibility Sincerity, and candour mark an easy target There’s no room in your routines for any Creativite epiphany, you are too burdened By this synthetic reality; one built to Keep you from the gifts without and within”   Thank you the great Rumi, and yes Doctor Jung you had something to add..   “I am God; for he is I Conceding this truth, what more than Myself do I need to study in-order to To discover he and all else that Surrounds me, the absence of synergy This lack in understanding is a subtle Disease you all suffer intimately, regain The ubiquitous synergy and bring back His glory, the spiritual bonds shall Prove to be irrefutable in the end You shall all elevate as one or suffer The descent yet again as a syndicate No ifs or buts about it”   Thank you Doctor Carl Jung.

Born in Iran and unto Persian ethnicity; I have a heritage rich in poetry.

An ancient culture embellished by the creative sublime. A historic tapestry laced by such revered wordsmiths as; Rumi, Hafes, Attar, and Khayyam. An early victim of circumstance; determined yet in time I’d reap the rewards of the consequence.

My family and life as I knew it would be torn apart by the 1978 revolution, and soon thereafter a bloody war decade long war, making vagabonds of us all. Neo-gypsies, we’d wander about the globe in search of a shelter to call home.  The journey would lend an intimate insight unto multi-cultural virtues and values, an acute sense of global awareness. Therefore my youthful memorable experiences would be rich in abundance and vast in variety. Such prosper due to adversities and the sheer magnitude of sites and sounds during my most influential years of growth and development have allowed me a distinct approach and diverse perception of existence, consequently to impact my poetry. This privileged resource; rich in wisdom and emotional extremities would also afford my belief liberty from any secular biases, independent to discover the faith in me and accomplish a somewhat unique sense of spiritual maturity. To me logic's the language of the mind, and evidence of science, alas poetry's the accent of passion, and the expression from the heart.
