One Eternal Vibe Of Light

One Eternal Vibe Of Light

After I ride the slow afternoon train 
among house-cluttered hills of lonely towns, 
I walk shores of the ocean through my dreams 
to feel the ebbing tide of life recede 
with hoarse voice of the old sibilant song 
that sparks electric self out of my heart. 

When dust of Me becomes land of the globe, 
which fascinates my eyes with slender light, 
I wonder what name ancient people called 
this river that reflects mask of my face, 
since I still hear dirge of the ship-wrecked souls 
who ask me for secret of global peace. 

I merge my soul in drifting sand of change, 
baffled by uncanny thoughts of desire 
that lure me to find soulmate of my heart 
who walks as distant shadow on the beach, 
so I call out to them with plaintive cry 
but I find they have become the Real Me. 

Loud voices echo against trunks of pines 
when thoughts my mouth projects recoil as fear 
that bursts in peals of thunder over hills 
with cold ironic laughter of false pride 
so I extend my hand with trembling faith 
to grasp elusive fish of timeless truth. 

Strange essence of this whole beautiful world 
eludes perception of my eager mind 
to understand flash of cause and effect 
when light reflecting off things I define 
stings my heart with sweet shock of ecstasy 
that we are one eternal vibe of light. 

Star-eyed Ocean Mother within my heart 
expresses riddles through analysis 
to translate murmur of the mocking waves 
refracting light through prism of my brain 
because I contradict my alien self 
beyond capricious attitude of faith. 

Vast ocean breathes my swollen soul with faith 
though I become invisible to eyes 
of human scope expanding beyond code 
programmed to bind safe haven of my heart, 
because I am the new moon no one sees, 
no more than subtle voice on evening breeze. 

I drift at random on long road of life 
but always find myself on ocean shore 
where ghosts of my ancestors haunt my steps 
because I follow path they blazed with hope 
through fathomless workings of secret codes 
expressed as aching dirge to accept death.

  1. Orpheus decides not to take the train back into town, and instead tries to live in the cave on the beach where humanity first sang dirges of faith.
