Unface On The Moon

Unface On The Moon

This universe is a meaningless flash 
of light congealed into organic souls 
who ache with passion to understand why, 
but since we know we are products of fate 
randomly generated, we can savor 
beauty of this meaningless universe. 

Alone in silence of the everywhere, 
I sing about strange beauty I perceive 
in human actions to evade cruel death 
when we sing and dance with graceful despair 
in play which distracts people for a while 
because death will take us all in time. 

The star that falls from heaven in my hand 
explains to me how light creates my soul 
so I float my heavy heart on the lake 
to feel waves swirling me into the sky 
where dust motes of my body refract rays 
to telecast my unface on the moon. 

With each word I sing in the silent void 
I build bridge of the present from my past 
with animating artifacts of thought 
connecting many perspectives in one 
so we become stories we like to tell 
till our history gets twisted into myth. 

When I break open dragon egg of fate 
I feel the Ungod of the Universe 
release my spirit from my yesterday, 
so I walk outside garden walls of fear 
to get lost in the forest of my dreams 
which always lead me back to my real home. 

After I leave safe walls of paradise, 
I cross the waste land of ten thousand ghosts, 
I climb the mountain of ten thousand gnomes, 
I sail the ocean of ten thousand sprites, 
and yet I always find myself back home, 
rising out of the ground with angel wings. 

Walking awkwardly backward without feet 
to erase every road I blazed on Earth, 
I spark awake cacophony of faith 
to sing electric body of my soul 
with strange new vision of what always is, 
repeatedly reborn from nevermore. 

Out of the water in ship of my soul, 
I pull my fellow travelers from hell 
when we breathe deep ethereal voice of love 
so we can speak the countless languages 
the ocean programs in our spongy brains 
as we create meaning from random thoughts.
