Free All Economic Slaves

Though thoughtless stairway of the shadow mind 
takes me to bowels of the fractured Earth 
I almost fly on wings of Icarus 
but wake in metro station by the sea, 
staring at petals on the wet black bough 
that are not pale faces of lonely souls. 

The cosmic herald on the rain-gray horse 
appears from beams of light in psychic haze 
to prophesy rise of one global state 
that integrates puzzle of human nations 
with Chinese ideograms as verbal tags 
weaving our brains in divine world wide web. 

But rebels who favor the nationalist state 
form cruel confederacy of corporate kings 
who fight for right to enslave laborers 
too tired from working all day to support 
children who compete for the tattered laurel 
that falls from weary head of the blind seer. 

So I push red wheelbarrow full of dreams 
while working to construct the welfare state 
that cares for every person in the world 
who work together in conceptual mines 
to extract meaning from minerals of hope 
so we can feast in museum of tales. 

The cosmic herald on the throne of oak 
strums golden strings on lyre of Mercury 
and sings enchanting hymns to Liberty 
so we can free all economic slaves 
from gnawing hunger of the frantic mind 
mad with faith to comprehend the Star Wraith. 

But none will listen to the screaming tree 
who warns the proud official heads of state 
that global warming might soon energize 
demonic Glow Cloud of celestial wrath 
who wears the tarnished mask of Jupiter 
while lounging on the Himalaya Range. 

Because the cosmic herald of the Earth 
is new theophany of Apollon 
we gather in Stonehenge at flash of dawn 
to drink sweet wine as ichor of Earth God 
and dance with wild abandon of state laws 
in whirl that wakes the Phoenix of our hearts. 

After we dismantle white privilege 
that props the patriarchy on weak laws 
which gives advantage to fragility 
we build new global state based on just laws 
that provide equal rights to every soul 
so we generate life before we die.
