Awake to language of the dreamless brain 
in the thousand eyes of Scheherazade, 
I dance around surprised in sunlit rain 
that radiates bright from our invented God 
who teaches humans the naming of things 
in sheltering wind of faceless angel wings. 

Amazed at beauty of new evidence 
that we are fragile fragments of sunbeams, 
I open hands to catch the providence 
that slips away in glow of morning dreams 
when storms strike the crowded city of souls 
who reassess their life-achievement goals. 

Programmed to sing weird visions of my eyes 
that strike hot rainbows in drizzle of time, 
I carve illusions on glass tablet skies 
that show us humans evolving from slime 
as we become wingless angels who know 
how to perform in the grand temple show. 

Eager to employ every tool of thought 
abandoned in the old poetry toolbox, 
I build vast maze of myths that no one bought 
to navigate road of life with the Star Clocks 
which mirror mental vision of the world 
in virtual terrain of the cosmic herald. 

Attentive to the needs of nameless ghosts 
who linger in fraught houses of their plays, 
I generate rigorous spells from boasts 
that perpetuate puzzles in sad haze 
to analyze process of social truth 
designed and charged by the messiah sleuth. 

Inspired to build new world of joy from terror 
that corresponds with desires humans hide, 
I carve statue of Apollo from water 
to honor grief of his forgotten bride 
who measures starred lucidity of fate 
with honest passion of the fertile mate. 

Amused by motion of coincidence 
that parallels our paths around the Earth, 
I weave weird random sounds of common sense 
in grand philosophy of soul rebirth 
through retrospective cry for sacred love 
that echoes still from primal ocean cave. 

Accultured to new world order of faith 
that welcomes everyone to join the feast, 
I found world empire of the eyeless wraith 
that teaches humans to transcend the beast, 
then set lamp of my sorrow in watch tower 
to guide lost souls in labyrinth of the flower.
