Blank Face Of Death

Blank Face Of Death

I am light as you are breath as they are
dancing angels in the waves of the star.
See how they run like horses in the sky
beyond the bubble of the dreaming eye.
I am laughing at the blank face of Death.
My brain is humming with her sun-bright breath.

While sitting on the hill of dancing wheat
I count the bees that shimmer in the heat.
I give new name to every flashing day
and draw new map in dust to find my way.
I am laughing at the blank face of Death.
My brain is flowing with the Shibboleth.

Go sail to Heaven on the boat of light.
Go dance in Hellas on the hill of sight.

Then riding on the white horse of despair
the Egg King twirls his scepter in the air.
He steals my brain and plants it in the box
that races through green shadows as the fox.
I am laughing at the blank face of Death.
My brain is raining tears in the pool bath.

We see wise Lucifer fly in the sky
where he sparks visions in my broken eye.
Now I exchange my face for yours at dawn
so we play hide and see on castle lawn.
I am laughing at the blank face of Death.
My brain is striking light from storm of wrath.

Go sail to Heaven on the boat of light.
Go dance in Hellas on the hill of sight.

On flat-top pyramid of Watching Eye
great Ishtar sings her epic tale of Why.
Gargantuan mother queen in rusting crown
sends me to sing nonsense in every town.
I am laughing at the blank face of Death.
My brain is cursing long-forgotten troth.

When I return from underworld of fear
I ride the Jabberwock around our sphere.
I live the memories of your lives in dream
while sailing from Shalott on flashing stream.
I am laughing at the blank face of Death.
My brain is beaming me to reign as Goth.

Go sail to Heaven on the boat of light.
Go dance in Hellas on the hill of sight.
