Unframed By Bitter Faith

Blatant ontology of broken brains
defines organic blasphemy of fate
we gamble to assess progress of life
through fact-confounding maze of travesty,
backward stumbling to transcend bleak despair
that becomes wings for flight instead of weight.

Young woman wearing camera eyes for gain
keeps searching for soul mate to oscillate
opposing states of mind that balance right
gyrating patterns swiftly harmonized
through disparate concessions breaking stride
because she thinks she misheard what he said.

Heat vibrating invisibly from road
of asphalt arrogance, that shields her heart,
strips all illusions from her clacking mind,
so she recalculates conceptual sleight
from skilled dexterity of sharp insight
when she adjusts strike of brave stratagem.

Widened access easement back to her heart
attracts assertive focus of concern,
contrived to mimic romance out of turn,
twice allocating ardent faith in love
by gratefully extending cautious hand
that tests attentive sturdiness of trust.

Born blind from mission unassigned by God
to preach salvation of cliff-breaking waves,
she proves communal worth of clever claims
by misdirecting eyes of innocence
so we are glamored by her vagrant spell
presenting untruth framed by casual hope.

When she delivers plate of nutrients,
we praise her passion for the parasite,
then listen as she dances on bright stage
to sing tale of the hero we admire
whose deeds opposing tyrant of cruel greed
clears space for us to thrive in fertile peace.

Minerva holds hacked head of Midas high
to show the world his tyranny is done,
but thieves of honesty with grasping hands
slither slavishly from his severed brain
as devils that invade our paradise
and strip ripe apples from the Tree of Life.

Designing truth unframed by bitter faith,
she waves high flag of global liberty
to guide our revolution of the heart
so we transcend fierce anger with calm plan
to build new nation of Zarathia
from ruined empire of America.
