Golden Quill Of Truth

Golden Quill Of Truth

Though my heart aches with sorrowful despair, 
I pluck one feather from white raven wing 
who brings me mushrooms in the river grove 
where I catch serpents writhing in clear waves 
and carve on wood tablet Saturnian runes 
to prophesy with golden quill of truth. 

Based on bold admiration of respect 
for bitter suffering human souls endure, 
Hestia brings me gold grail with sparkling wine 
that beams weird visions from the mountain wind 
when Zephyr whispers in my radiant ear 
to prophesy with golden quill of truth. 

Enraged that we live free from chains of hate 
which he employs to bind us to his will, 
grim Pluto cowers in stone hall of rage 
and sends mad Midas to destroy our state, 
till Phoebus stands with lyre on global stage 
to prophesy with golden quill of truth. 

Shocked by his violent coup of fascist greed 
when Midas sends goon squad to steal the crown 
that Jesus wears with blood-red ruby gems, 
Minerva leads brave army of our faith 
in revolution against tyranny 
to prophesy with golden quill of truth. 

Attentive to needs of all citizens 
who dwell with freedom in land of the brave, 
Apollo wrestles Python in the cave 
where grand illusions blind us with false creed 
so he dispels hypnotic haze of fear 
to prophesy with golden quill of truth. 

Inspired by courage average humans show 
when faced with adverse obstacles to health, 
I climb high Mount Takoma with intent 
to find lost lyre of Mercury and play 
tropes in musical meter with thought rhyme 
to prophesy with golden quill of truth. 

Desperate to believe we live beyond death, 
we project our consciousness of the soul 
at atomic mirror of the universe, 
but we are temporary flames of love 
powered by eternal atoms of life 
to prophesy with golden quill of truth. 

Awake as me, on this globe, at this time, 
in timeless vastness of our universe, 
I sing with passion of atomic light 
that wakes God in neural net of my brain 
so I become Divine Mind, till I die, 
to prophesy with golden quill of truth.
