Scriptural Vision Of Truth

Scriptural Vision Of Truth

I weave from legends about gods and men,
who once performed great deeds to resolve strife
and establish order of social laws,
consistent scriptural vision of truth.

I wear hard mask of personality
composed of characters from ancient myths
to hide my anxious insecurity
and channel passion through my strict demeanor.

Extracting various attributes from gods,
those stereotypes of ancient tribal wizards,
I assemble new monster of myself,
like Doctor Frankenstein, to make new me. 

Dressed in old costumes of villains and heroes,
I perform my own role on social stage
in fierce contest to play Wizard of Words,
competing to defeat Tyrant of Lies.

Hundred thousand writers, poets, and singers,
one soul out of every three hundred thousand,
compete to play the Prophet of the Truth
who creates scriptural vision of life.

What vision of teeming life will prevail
that best presents complex parameters
from mind of the shaman who suffers most
and returns with light from the underworld?

I leap off castle wall of ancient faith
and fall nine days and nights to solid Earth
where I become clear lightning in the void
and sing enchanting spells of noble heroes.

We journey far from safe hearth of our home
to explore the complete globe of our world,
then study nature of life to compose
consistent scriptural vision of truth.
