Flash Of Endless Time

Flash Of Endless Time

Awake on the longest night of the year, 
I float forever on strange sea of light 
that glitters from infinite flow of thoughts 
through undulating waves of aching hope 
to pierce heart of darkness with sudden faith 
that lights my eyes with flash of endless time. 

Attentive glory weaves from mirror glass 
frail skeleton of hunger I become 
as I transform from fish to wingless cat 
with motivation to leap depths of fear 
and climb high curling vine of juicy fruit 
that fills my heart with flash of endless time. 

Extension of my eager will to grasp 
elusive treasure of rain-dripping fruit 
molds wiggling fingers from my padded paws 
so I grab vine and swing from tree to tree 
to climb enormous mountain to the sky 
that binds my soul with flash of endless time. 

Ascension of my mind from shadowed vales 
provides firm platform high above bright clouds 
where I perceive vast landscape of this globe 
that spins among star-ghosts in boundless void 
through ever-changing swirls of energy 
that guide my way with flash of endless time. 

Religious focus of my throbbing heart 
through intense discipline of sharpened wit 
fuels fearless assertion of my desire 
as I evolve to monkey from swift cat 
while leaping trees from sea to shining sea 
that weave my dreams with flash of endless time. 

Affirmed by sturdy foundation of hope, 
having lost my tail to swing among trees, 
I dance in surge of hungry ocean waves 
to walk upright with balanced attitude 
so I grasp straightened stick and stone of fate 
that drives my game with flash of endless time. 

Attribution of values to new shapes 
provides framework for vision of my eyes 
to mold mud in bricks stacked in ziggurats 
from which I rule as mortal god on Earth 
to manage world food-production machine 
that runs my brain with flash of endless time. 

Four hundred million years of spinning faith 
transforms my quadrupedal form of flesh 
fish to lizard to mouse to cat to ape 
to wingless angel aching to play god, 
so I strum lyre of Mercury and sing 
spells that chronicle flash of endless time.
