Whatever fruit falls from the Tree of Knowledge, 
I place it in woven basket of hope, 
then skip merrily on the signless road 
to my humble vine-entangled stone cottage 
where Cronus teaches me to bake fruit pie 
so I can work for him as the Dream Spy. 

Knocking on the gold jeweled gate of Heaven, 
I state I have fresh pies for Jupiter, 
so I follow red robe of Lucifer 
who bids me enter chamber of the Raven 
where Apollo plays lyre of Mercury 
while Minerva practices sorcery. 

Standing before map of United Nations, 
Jupiter ponders strange state of the world, 
then turns with puzzled frown to cosmic herald 
who calculates fortune with constellations 
that shimmer on the huge computer screen 
with globe of the Earth mapped by Melusine. 

Drifting outside to fairy-crowded garden, 
I decide to join the wild masquerade 
celebrating ascendance of Mermaid 
who wears jeweled crown as Empress of Eden 
to climb high crystal Ziggurat of Ur 
where Ishtar hands scepter to Jupiter. 

Entranced by beauty of delicate fairies, 
who write physics formulas on blackboards, 
I follow campaigns of horse-riding hordes 
who pause for Easter to gather ripe berries, 
then kneel before Jupiter on gold throne 
whose statue is smashed by the rolling stone. 

Standing on ziggurat of global power, 
Jupiter extends scepter in his hand 
so his spiraling hawk surveys the land 
which he rules as guard from Rapunzel Tower, 
while people in the town square watch the clown 
mock the pompous emperor with fake crown. 

While Jupiter struts in parade of glory 
Mars leaps to assassinate haughty god, 
shouting that he is nothing but a fraud, 
till, distracted by boorish oratory, 
he wounds the Fisher King with sword of greed 
to reconstitute our imperial creed. 

Escaping chaos of world revolution, 
I hurry back to garden of fruit trees 
for soul-calming music of honey bees, 
then float with Shiva in soul meditation 
while ambitious tyrants destroy the world 
till second coming of the cosmic herald.
