Arthurian Code Of Conduct

When hexagonal ice crystals refract 
spirit of the sun through sphere of my brain, 
I see crowd of red and black balls swirl wild 
in flashing spirals of electric coils 
that scatter into flocks of silver crows 
who gather in oak trees to sing my name. 

Because astonishing light of my being 
emanates from mortal frame of my flesh, 
I dream delusion of immortal life 
glowing from conscious system of my brain 
which tricks my mind to feel as if my soul 
exists long before it beams from my body. 

Contained within limiting bounds of being, 
my soul vibrates from waves of chemicals 
that interact to conjure glow of life 
through finite channels of time-woven space, 
designed by my ancestors so my genes 
construct this temporary self I am. 

Spurred to perform act of the noble soul 
by story of the tyrant who exploits 
bodies of people to increase his power, 
I journey road to the high mountain pass 
where statue of the goddess glows alive 
and commissions me to defeat the king. 

Inspired by her vision of global peace, 
I fight against every tyrant on Earth 
with passion of brave Cronus in my heart 
to cast cruel Uranus from throne of greed 
and free the hungry people of the world 
to operate farms with communal faith. 

Just like Saint Lucia asks Empress Maria, 
who asks Princess Beatrice for assistance, 
who sends Vergilius to guide Dante to Heaven, 
so Athena asks Apollo, who asks 
Mercurius, who sends Orpheus with lyre 
to guide my journey to the Promised Land. 

Thus wise Athena teaches me to see 
essential spirit in each human being 
so I may attend to their secret needs, 
and nurture innate talents into skills 
that allows them to create way of life 
fulfilling dreams of their ambitious hope. 

Wielding Sword of Justice in hand of faith, 
applied to my care by the Fairy Queen, 
I follow Arthurian Code of Conduct 
opposing tyrants, enslavers, and thieves, 
protecting farmers, herdsmen, and craftsmen, 
and protecting women who create life.
