Attached to the world of star-breathing beings, 
I plant the peach pit in soil of my heart 
so tree that blossoms from sorrow of my flesh 
provides fresh fruit for the People to eat 
who dance and sing with spinning of the Earth 
till we all dissipate back to star dust. 

Attached to the world of water-drunk trees, 
I float in sun-glittering river stream 
that flows among tall vine-entangled oaks 
where ravens explain the meaning of life 
till I catch the brown trout with hungry hands 
and roast it to eat in cricketing dusk. 

Attached to the world of arrogant gods, 
I carve their souls on marble monuments 
where starving people bow with bowls of food 
till we rise up from slaving in their fields 
to break the shackles of bitter despair 
and follow our savior to paradise. 

Attached to the world of exploding flowers, 
I unfold wings of my ancestral bodies 
till I assimilate their dreams of hope 
in virtual model of our perceived world 
so I can run with horses on the prairie 
when I escape death maze of Babylon. 

Attached to the world of curious explorers, 
I climb the highest mountain in the world 
to find the cloud-hidden stairway to Heaven 
but I find no god outside of my brain 
so I become clear thunder of the truth 
that programs the world wide web of computers. 

Attached to the world of Democracy, 
I march with millions in ten thousand cities 
to declare with holy voice of the People 
that we will fight for Liberty and Justice 
against the thieves disguised as oligarchs 
to make them keep their foul hands off our lives. 

Attached to the world of ghost-painted books, 
I chronicle fall of America, 
destroyed by greedy gangs of control-freaks, 
which cultivates birth of Zarathia 
that will usher in our new Golden Age 
where everyone lives together in peace. 

Attached to the world of psychotic kings, 
I struggle to rise from grave of my fear 
till Muse in glowing robe of honesty 
gives me sword of Beowulf to fight 
dragon of greed to arrest his destruction 
so we gather to sing among fruit trees.
