Strategy Of Crucial Hope
Strategy Of Crucial Hope

To employ strategy of crucial hope,
asserting right to breath polluted air,
we twist our bodies with aggressive faith,
quick to conform our spirits to sky laws
designed by fear to confiscate our souls
when gods eliminate mankind from time.
Alert at black piano of his heart,
Ludwig, with graceful arrogance of faith,
plays his cello sonata number three
in alpha major to enchant the trees
who weep to feel sweet music of the stars
that wild Orpheus played centuries before.
While driving endless highway of blind faith,
Narcissus thinks about vast fields of corn
that shimmer golden on the fenceless plains
because his tribe in waste land far away
dwell amid ruins of their bombed-out homes
where they plant apple trees with injured hands.
Awake with sudden surprise of weird truth
in old fishing boat on the mountain lake,
Belenus gazes at bright Pleiades
where face of his lost wife Parvati gleams
as constellation of his aching heart,
and smiles at ghost of her absence with love.
Young owlish woman with star-golden eyes
glides wickedly across the college lawn
to transform ancient books of poetry
into moon-winged ravens of dire urgency
that bring her solemn scrolls of prophecy
to warn politicians of the end times.
After Tabiti, goddess of the hearth,
invents the kitchen table from the wheel,
that Helius designed to mimic the sun,
she invites refugees from civil wars
to sit and feast on bread, honey, and wine,
while Ludwig plays songs on the violin.
When forgetful snow covers rugged hills
and buries our feast halls up to the roof,
Saint Wenceslaus in long sun-scarlet cloak
guides reindeer-driven sleigh across snowed fields
and slides down chimneys with bags of fresh food,
so we gather around the hearth to sing.
Worshipping luminous phantom of truth,
who smiles beneficently at souls on Earth,
we cultivate vital glow of our brains
in quest for true enlightenment of faith
as we grow from wingless angels to gods
who preserve our souls in songs till we die.
