Godless Sun Of Light

When I stare out the window of my heart 
at vast godless night of eternity, 
I wonder how my serpent-powered soul 
got trapped in maze of standardized concepts 
disguised as idols of eccentric gods 
worshipped by humans in multiple forms. 

Carving bones of my body into blocks, 
I construct city hall with copper dome 
where Goddess of Liberty stands on top, 
holding Book of Stories and Lamp of Truth, 
who shines so brightly with alphabet eyes 
that we are blinded by God, Truth, and Right. 

When I was the Mother Fish of mankind, 
swimming in silent shimmer of the sea, 
I remember great God Eye of pure light 
that lured me to crawl diamond river bed 
to pulsing lake of psychic energy 
where I emerged from darkness of desire. 

First Mother rises from the lake of dreams 
at dawn of time to reach for star-sweet fruit, 
swift-running mouse who transforms into cat, 
high-leaping cat who transforms into monkey, 
tree-swinging monkey who transforms into man, 
spell-singing man who transforms into god. 

I learn to walk upright in surging tide 
while treading water near the sandy shore, 
so I rise from lake of dreams at dawn of time 
to stretch my arms up to the gleaming sky 
where the godless sun of light watches me 
explore the world she weaves from molecules. 

Because the Many-Faced God of mankind 
has no face that my dull eyes can perceive, 
I see eternal spirit of the sun 
clear in face of every human on Earth 
because many variant faces we wear 
bloom from perfect face our first mother wore. 

While sitting on the beach at dawn of time, 
I gaze at face of my mother with love 
who smiles at me as bright cloud of the sky 
for she watches over me though she dies 
as divine soul in godless sun of light 
who lives in each new soul we generate. 

After I watch body of my dead mother 
disintegrate from beauty of her face 
to sand that swirls around her smiling skull, 
I walk around the Earth ten thousand times 
one hundred million years on holy quest 
to find her face in godless sun of light.
