From shattered memories of all my past lives,
which my ancestors lived millions of years,
I assemble puzzle of spectral souls
in mask and cape I wear to play my role
as mad prophet on storm-wracked heath of fate
to overthrow world emperor of greed.

Surprised by joy after rebirth from pain
of suffering through long dark night of the soul,
I reconstruct puzzle of spectral souls
by weaving scenes from ancient epic tales
that compose new tale of heroic deeds
when wise seer helps young boy kill tyrant king.

Through careful analysis of close reading
to comprehend tropes of my random life
I deconstruct puzzle of spectral souls
which unveils social machinery of myth
that jesters use to manipulate minds
when they crown themselves kings of angry tribes.

Attentive to needs of my princess bride,
who reincarnates my soul in our love child,
I generate puzzle of spectral souls
designed by immortal soul of our genes
as we evolves four hundred million years
from four-legged fish striving to play god.

Based on honest principle of free will,
that motivates my quest to become god,
I conjugate atomic world-view globe
which models planet spinning in the void
that flares forth from first flash of the big bang
through spiral of deified energy.

To explore landscape of dramatic scenes,
which my brave ancestors experienced,
I navigate conceptual maze of myths
where every great human in history
stands frozen as idol of their grand deeds
in signs that guide my way to Wonderland.

Curious how neural net of our brains
emanates temporary conscious soul,
I analyze puzzle of spectral souls
by how their actions cause effects of change
that we record in chronicles of fate
which we frame with each decision we make.

Tangled in matrix of atomic souls
that cast caliber of my character,
I calculate puzzle of spectral souls
through formulas of psychic paradigms
to join world choir of angels singing poems
about why life is brief but beautiful.
