Reconstruct The East Wing

Reconstruct The East Wing

When Artemis invites with eager heart 
generous women who run charities 
to convene in East Wing of the White House 
where they plan programs to help people thrive, 
Midas sends huge bulldozers to erase 
power of the First Lady to do good. 

Exiled to wander in the wilderness, 
lost in political waste land of fear, 
Artemis searches for cave of illusions, 
where Antonius Magnus the Hermit prays, 
to learn spiritual arts of psychic faith 
so she can fight cruel demon of despair. 

Bearing Lamp of Diogenes with hope, 
Artemis descends to the underworld 
where Persephone arranges she meet 
Hippolyte, Tomoe Gozen, Fu Hao, 
Tomyris, Boudicca, and Joan of Arc, 
who train her heart with courage to excel. 

While banished from great ziggurat of power, 
where Midas and Pluto oppress the land 
by imposing their private greed as law, 
Artemis attends focus of her strength 
to hone lithe skills of justice with respect 
till she gains potent wit to oppose greed. 

Bold Liberty holds high Star-Spangled Banner, 
while wearing Phrygian Cap of honest hope, 
and leads brave People of America 
through revolution against tyranny 
to drive mad Midas from vast hall of mirrors 
where he proclaims himself King of the Earth. 

Face to face on the One-Eye Pyramid, 
Artemis and Midas fight for control 
to present opposing visions of life, 
democracy where everyone is equal, 
or tyranny where rich exploit the poor, 
over whose way of life will rule the world. 

Because the people of our spinning world 
support Artemis, Queen of Liberty, 
who ensures equal justice for each soul 
so we have homes and food to thrive with love, 
she grows strong with energy of our faith 
while Midas withers from his selfish greed. 

After she frees people from cruel tyranny, 
Artemis will reconstruct the East Wing 
so the First Lady can sponsor programs 
supporting women and children of Earth 
so everyone thrives in our paradise, 
building Eden from ruins of his pride.

  2. The author explores a powerful narrative in "Reconstruct The East Wing," depicting Artemis, a symbol of liberty and justice, facing challenges posed by Midas, a figure of greed. The poem illustrates Artemis's journey as she seeks wisdom and strength through the guidance of historical warrior women. Stranded in a political wasteland, she cultivates her abilities to fight despair and reclaim the power to uplift others. The poem culminates in a conflict between opposing visions of governance—one fostering equality and the other rooted in oppression. Ultimately, with the support of the people, Artemis triumphs, paving the way for the reconstruction of the East Wing as a sanctuary for programs benefitting women and children, thereby transforming a landscape of greed into one of hope and prosperity.
