Falling behind in progress of the wave 
for project to translate song of the sea, 
I run forever on the signless road 
to save the human soul from slavery 
by leaping in the air on lightning wings 
in gamble for salvation against death. 

To understand strange beauty of the light 
that gleams on mirror of the boundless mind 
I call blind Watcher on tower of glass 
who points to constellations of the heart 
that help my ghost achieve hard enterprise 
transforming negative space into words. 

With exiled children born from nothingness 
I gather diamonds from the cave of lies 
which fracture Earth into the multiverse 
that beams inside eight billion human brains 
based on forthrightness of harsh ridicule 
that we endure with voices of the wind. 

Now I am reborn from my rotten skull 
as honest Watcher on tower of glass 
assigned by Death to guard with starry eyes 
lush valley of the soul-nurturing stream 
with sparkles bright in trees of pungent fruit 
where children of the serpent feast in faith. 

Safe in green shadow of the split pine tree, 
star-eyed Watcher of my maternal genes 
brews honey-mushroom wine with cinnamon 
that fills my body with electric flush 
so my brain swells large as the galaxy 
that nurtures zillions of organic souls. 

In scarlet blaze of flaming falcon wings 
my heart transcends material world of forms 
to soar on commandeering flight of faith 
beyond sadistic glimmer of despair 
so I bless mankind with generous grace 
by teaching them to write the alphabet. 

Oppressive darkness of eternal dawn, 
suffusing breast of wisdom with cold air, 
asserts concern for stretched pursuit of truth 
to build our nation based on measurement 
through verification our brains perceive 
so we relieve harsh suffering with doubt. 

No laughing demons of regretful guilt 
disrupt our ceremony of despair 
for eyeless Watcher on tower of glass 
designs new map to program our world view 
which lights again lamp of Diogenes 
who leads us through perilous maze of myths.
