Wall Of Eternal Hope

Wall Of Eternal Hope

With subtle arrogance of honest lust 
I stumble drunk on Dionysian wine 
down shadowy corridors of desire 
past marble idols of cute goddesses 
whose stony eyes pierce my heart with true love 
when I fall off wall of eternal hope. 

Reluctant anguish of conceptual faith 
sparks my stone heart with electric regret 
that spurs my pilgrimage of torpidity 
to find Urania singing in the rain 
while dancing on the rocky ocean shore 
when I lounge on wall of eternal hope. 

Through expectation of reliant jokes 
I give my credentials to the tree ghost 
who unlocks door to the house of detention 
so all the demons escape caves of Hell 
to eat hotdogs and drink beer at the bar 
enclosed by glass wall of eternal hope. 

Despite persuasion of the Holy Ghost, 
who binds our aching hearts of wretched love 
with barbed dogmatic wires of loyalty, 
Grendel kicks down iron cathedral door 
to drink the blood and eat the flesh of Christ 
and smear mud on wall of eternal hope. 

Trembling naked on wind-blasted sea shore, 
Augustine shouts at the blind thunder god 
with optimistic prayers of eager horror 
to understand the noble sacrifice 
made by the Fisher King to save the world 
after breaking wall of eternal hope. 

Confidence founded on complex chess games 
lures refugees from brutal civil wars 
to sail the seven seas in whaling boats 
through project to colonize jungle lands 
where everyone votes to end slavery 
when Jesus builds wall of eternal hope. 

Fragments of history shattered by bombs, 
organized by states of divinity, 
contain scenes where honest men conquer tyrants 
and rule the people with generous trust 
till revolution of the bourgeoisie 
who redefine wall of eternal hope. 

Twanging strings of his electric guitar 
and screaming curses in the microphone, 
Apollo performs in huge stadium 
where eighty thousand devils rock and roll 
till they transform into angels with wings 
who fly beyond wall of eternal hope.
