If you want to see the ghost of my soul 
with eyes of dreamless stars inside your heart, 
express confounding mystery of the Name 
that radiates from God Mind of the White Whole 
which cannot be found on any dream chart 
since every human wants to die from fame. 

When Athena appears from flashing cloud 
and gives me leather notebook of her mind, 
I pluck white quill from wing of Gabriel 
so I can write prophecies for the crowd 
who seek to understand the ties that bind 
our souls to these bodies in which we dwell. 

Startled awake at dawn by Holy Voice 
that speaks in riddles coded by the Queen, 
I wander crowded streets in City Maze 
to prove we make our fate with every choice 
approved by government of Melusine 
so we transition to the next Dream Phase. 

Whether in the kitchen, the living room, 
the classroom, the office, or the church hall, 
we play our roles in cosmic game of life 
controlled by gods we invent in the gloom 
so we can monitor our rise and fall 
through social cycles of teamwork and strife. 

Wherever I walk in the crowded world 
I gaze into vast hearts of mortal souls 
with eyes of dreamless stars from timeless sea 
that wise Athena forged from ache of love 
so I can understand your secret dreams 
that motivate your quest for happiness. 

So many conscious souls of mortal beings 
are born and die with every turn of time 
when Earth adjusts our private attitude 
with humble pride of wonderful concern 
that we are still alive in game of change 
though we forget the code we once employed. 

Bound to the ancient tree of solitude 
the Voiceless Patriarch of our mad clan 
remembers how he tried to photograph 
True Face of God inside each human being 
till their fierce ghosts, obsessed with paradise, 
all vanish in the Howling Wind of Woe. 

While painting portrait of the half-dead king, 
the most innocent girl in the whole world 
floats up into the shining clouds of fate 
after she smiles at me with gratitude 
and offers me her eyes of dreamless stars 
that gleam with every soul who ever lives.
