Book Synopsis The Throne Perpendicular to All that is Horizontal by : Daniel Abdal-Hayy Moore
Download or read book The Throne Perpendicular to All that is Horizontal written by Daniel Abdal-Hayy Moore and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We're born in a relationship with theology. Nurtured in the womb by other than our means, born into the world at large, at very large, from our meditative seclusion, our khalwa, the Arabic for spiritual retreat (often practiced in a closet-like room just enough for a devotee to sit comfortably) we emerge into a theological world, willy-nilly. As soon as we take a breath of worldly oxygen we're in a tight relationship with the whole God-system, as believers or non-believers, until our last breath leaves us. So in the title, it's a Throne that is perpendicular, at an always angle, to all that is in our and all worlds, while still being "seated" (only "as it were") within it, and Allah "seated" upon it. And this is our present and ever-present reality, in all its manifestations. It's a way of seeing and a way of being, and everyone down to the minutest mouse, is in "theological" relation to it. Oh, that feather floating through the air, and that ant at the water drain! Yes, you there... you too!

But there are also those whose "disregard" of the passing of time is due to their absorption in Eternity, and The Eternal One.

Download or read book Blood Songs / Poems written by Daniel Abdal-Hayy Moore and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: .".".The look of love death has on its face and in its fathomless eyes as behind the burning irises legions upon legions of angels file up and down a spiraling staircase carrying love-notes and bringing back blessings and reprieves..."" I'm really not sure why this particular collection of my poems is called Blood Songs, the title it has had since beginning the first poem of the book written in October of 2000, and though, as with other titles of mine, not necessarily threading a theme throughout, yet the title stands notwithstanding... and so it stands.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This may be a secret among only a few of its recipients, but cancer is a direct and positive gift from God. Its chemo and radiation therapies wrack and ruin us... and its alternative therapies may bewilder us with the arcane and often whacky character of their methods... I chose the traditional medical program of three chemo and thirty-five radiation sessions, begun immediately after diagnosis of my cancer, and I praise Allah for the doctors who treated me with their medicine chest of tough love. _________________ Redemption happens the way/ water falls/ Forgiveness is air/ let into an airless room/ Even at the top of the highest peak/ we can't just step off into the sky/ At some point only God's Love has any reality/ and everything hangs enraptured from that ferocious hook/ Streams of light continue to enter us from we/ know now where/ The truth of our beings/ light streaming everywhere

Book Synopsis The Crown of Creation / Poems by : Daniel Abdal-Hayy Moore
Download or read book The Crown of Creation / Poems written by Daniel Abdal-Hayy Moore and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-07-01 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This poem was suggested in a flash by a paragraph in Michael McClure's book, "Scratching the Beat Surface," in which he quotes Ernst Haekel in the words used here as an epigraph, "Ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny." He goes on to say, in explanation, "Haekel meant that the individual, in his growth from meeting of sperm and ovum at conception, lives out, in fetus, the growth and evolution of his tribe; that first he is an amoeba, then a colonial organism, then an invertebrate, then a lancet, then a fish, until at last he is a mammal and a human." Reading this brought together for me various strands of thought into one clear picture, in harmony with the cosmological picture of the Muslim saints: "Man is a little cosmos, the cosmos is a big man." And the view that Allah created the entire creation as a setting, as it were, into which He placed man, the jewel, the perfect diamond, as the seal and culmination of this creation. ________________________________________________
Book Synopsis The Soul's Home / Poems by : Daniel Abdal-Hayy Moore
Download or read book The Soul's Home / Poems written by Daniel Abdal-Hayy Moore and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection from 2013 continues the intended trajectory of a lifetime's work that celebrates and posits the direct perception that The Divine Reality faces us from everywhere and in literally every circumstance of each moment of our lives. In this, the world's soul envelope has been turned inside out, revealing itself in images of light. Rather than invoking metaphors for experience, my project has been to "move from the word as symbol toward the word as reality" (as W.C. Williams said about the poetry of Ezra Pound), words not standing for an already completed experience, physical or spiritual, but in the act of writing itself revealing the core, the poem's very details being in themselves the experience, between seen and unseen, with transitive imagination the active aesthetic practice, as much as Allah inspires and allows.
Book Synopsis Sparks Off the Main Strike / Poems by : Daniel Abdal Moore
Download or read book Sparks Off the Main Strike / Poems written by Daniel Abdal Moore and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2010-12-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In all the poems of a poet's work there's the impulse to get to the bottom of things, to the original energy pulse, the first cause as it manifests in the present tense, the spark off the main strike. As always, the title came to me first, and the poems followed, some faithful some astray from the theme, but always rebounding back again to resonate with that original strike, in these scattered sparks.
Book Synopsis White Noise in This World Silver in the Next by : Daniel Abdal-Hayy Moore
Download or read book White Noise in This World Silver in the Next written by Daniel Abdal-Hayy Moore and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "White noise" is "a random signal with a constant power spectral density," says Google. "Such a signal is heard as a hissing sound, resembling the 'sh' sound in 'ash'. In music and acoustics, the term 'white noise' may be used for any signal that has a similar hissing sound." After chemo and radiation my oncologist asked if I heard a hissing sound in my ears. I said no, having always thought of it as the Music of the Spheres. It's the background silence that is pure, whose purity is expressed as a "hissing sound." Not of snakes, but of bliss. Or the whoosh of the sacred perveyors of bliss. And in the Unseen Next World that's an inconceivable state, herein called "silvery." TAKE ONE STEP FORWARD / it all turns to light // But to pour from one bottle to another / step back // At just the right balance / it pours itself...
Book Synopsis Some / Poems by : Daniel Abdal-Hayy Moore
Download or read book Some / Poems written by Daniel Abdal-Hayy Moore and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sufi poems from the love-ocean, washing at the shores of this world and the next, with God willing a depth charge or two to find new love grottos, new heights in underwater drownings, new depths in aerial flights. Contradictions? As Walt Whitman said, "Do I contradict myself? Yes, I contradict myself! I contain multitudes." And if we rub the self to its tissue-thin reality, God's Light shines more thoroughly through.
Book Synopsis Facing Mecca / Poems by : Daniel Abdal-Hayy Moore
Download or read book Facing Mecca / Poems written by Daniel Abdal-Hayy Moore and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Muslims who pray the five obligatory prayers each day of our lives, when able we orient ourselves toward Mecca, located in what is now Saudi Arabia, from wherever we happen to find ourselves, farflung in some island fastness, or out in desert dunes, or in a New York hotel room. There are boat people who tie up and face Mecca right in their boats, saintly Moroccan merchants who fling their carpets down just behind the counter where they sell embroidery thread to very particular customers (I am a witness). We can't get too "far out" when we stop to face Mecca five times and more a day, or in the solitude of our nights, knowing the plumb line goes straight through to the next world, and its rising to the holy heights.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Hundred Little 3D Pictures started out from those once-popular computer generated images a certain stare, unfocused or crosseyed, could render in layered three dimensions, with some really astonishing results... Recall the excitement in childhood when we looked into a diorama and saw back and back past whatever was being portrayed, not very far back really, perhaps, maybe only a shoebox length back, but peering through the front hole with the little flashlight or christmas bulb illuminating it, we saw a wee world that gave us shivers of delight.
