Too Many Ways To Fall In Love

Despite too many ways to fall in love 
I wake as spirit of the Messenger 
urged by intense energy of desire 
to light my way through endless maze of myths 
so I can find safe haven in the cave 
where shadows of truth flicker on the wall. 

Because too many ways to fall in love 
erase my story from legend of time 
I fly on silver wings of eager faith 
half way around the spinning world of lies 
to find my soulmate on the river shore 
who sings about strange beauty of the bird. 

Although too many ways to fall in love 
enhance my opportunities to mate 
with fertile goddess of the singing lake 
I walk alone in rain of broken hearts 
to catch wild lightning of new attitude 
that fuels my journey to the Promised Land. 

Without too many ways to fall in love 
that leaves me stranded on the lone highway 
far from the fog-enshrouded city streets 
I paint road signs with sacrificial blood 
that flows from heart of the arrogant goat 
when I drink wine and fall from the Blue Sky. 

Before too many ways to fall in love 
disturb my sunny afternoon of peace 
with demons screaming from pages of books 
I eat banana pudding on the porch 
then walk among spider-infested weeds 
to find sweet girl who weeps by the slime pond. 

After too many ways to fall in love 
discombobulate strange vibe of the stage 
with tragic consequence of false romance 
I hold hands with pretty Angel of Death 
as we walk country road in searing heat 
that strips all meaning from our naked souls. 

Beyond too many ways to fall in love 
surrounding paradise with cold stone walls 
I climb the Ivory Tower of despair 
where blind Rapunzel sings with aching sorrow 
to find salvation in the far tomorrow 
because there is no life after our death. 

Whereas too many ways to fall in love 
define my true demonic character 
with urgent intention to procreate 
I fight weird monster of the howling sea 
to save Andromeda from Doom of Death 
because Medusa kisses me with love.
