Language Of Dead Gods

Pandora gives me old unopened jar
that sat on top shelf in tall cabinet
in kitchen where she cooks for eighty years
to feed gods of Olympus every day,
so I hold it up to the evening light
to see my soul floating in

Lyre Of Twisted Truth

Time stretches rubber thoughts of innocence
outsized with laughter beyond moon affect
right forth through flapping door of framework wings
that function by handbook of hybrid keys
extreme at giant face of final fame

Swirls Of Emotional Dust

Songs of joy writhe from deep inside my body
so I sit by cracked window on the world
to watch strange people all around the Earth
play out the tragic fate of their vain lives
for we are swirls of emotional dust

Cracked Mirror Of The State

She drives across country on signless road
past numberless houses with broken masks
through unnaturally calm weather of fear
to ask impatient clouds of everywhere
where she can find the house of singing ghosts

Ocean Of Her Words

The youthfully ancient face of my mother
is the face of the land where I have dwelled
millions of years in valley of her heart
while climbing high to mountain of her head
because her eyes are the moon and the sun
and

Fate Laughs At Vanity

Because Fate laughs at vanity of man,
who dares assert false privilege of strength
to live beyond assessment of despair,
I sit on grass beneath the singing tree
to contemplate why hungry men will fight
to kill grim

Window On The World

Because my heart is window on the world,
I gaze from tower of ancestral souls
based on lives of three billion human beings
whose intense survival experiences
program how my brain perceives the world dream
that guides

Dream Cave of Hecate

Though I wander crazy maze of lost hopes
too many years from sea to shining sea,
singing out of tune about wounded hearts
that batter wings against cage of desire,
I find strange demon of love in my heart
that wakes

Persona Mask Of Strength

When he unfastens his soul from the world
while snatching apples from telephone poles,
then pretends to be the angel-winged bird
that never migrates when the empire falls,
Zachariah decides to prophesy
how storms

Rapt By Psychic Light

Rapt by psychic light of our spinning Earth,
I dream forever sorrow of mankind
awake in darkness of the silent moon
who always seems to know just how I feel
when I project my spirit at her mask
which I wear to play

Ungod Of Ten Billion Eyes

I wonder how to explain with calm faith
to my ancestors awake in my mind,
who prayed so fervently up to the sky,
that there was no one up there in the stars
strumming harps in crystal halls on the clouds,
nor

Wings Of Perpetual Respect

When my first home transforms into the crow
which flies on wings of perpetual respect
across the blind sea of forgotten dreams
that my ancestors left in empty rooms,
I model each new family home I build

Long Road Of My Heart

Though long road of my heart leads me to you,
forever winding around obstacles
across bleak landscape of lonely desire,
I will not stop in any paradise,
nor linger in lush garden of sweet hope,
till I arrive at door

Leaning over drawing board of her heart,
Eunah concentrates focus of her eyes
to draw conceptual framework of her mind
in image of young woman with Star Soul
who glides with fragile grace of wordless fear

Through reports in documentary voice

Alive On The Nowhere Road

One day at a time on the Nowhere Road
I follow my heart to the end of fear,
but find myself back where I first began
somewhere in the middle of the world maze
where people without faces make new masks
to hide

We are all nodes in matrix of world souls

Howling Wind of Woe

When sunset screams in silent ecstasy
through frantic spirals of flashing rainbows

Illusion Of Unspoken Hope

Simple quietness of long afternoons
expands moments to vast eternity
with timeless floating of delicious light
that gleams on walls and lawns of silent homes
where people hide from chaos of desire

Blank sky reflects face of eternity
which my brain conjures from weird memory
to project complex vision of itself
at wholesome roundness of the universe
which mirrors what I think about myself,

Ideal Persona I would Play

Bright in glass constellation of my heart,
transcendent god, who has never been real
beyond imagination of wild priests
drunk on wine from mushrooms of ecstasy,
reveals ideal persona I would play

Spate Of Vulpine Protocols

Dare Disturb The Universe

Ghost of my brain lingers upon the pools
that shimmer in the road of broken dreams
where strangers without faces they could sell

because time always seems about to end

who walks unknown in cities of the world,

we walk together on the broken road
without regret the center cannot hold

Sibylla walks along river of dreams
and chuckles at the strangeness of her thoughts
that ponder power struggles between men
over who controls who will get to eat,
then asks brave Hamlet if he knows the truth
