Limerence For The Earth

Blinded by my limerence for the Earth,
I skip with joy down crowded city streets
and beam smiles at every person I meet
because each individual soul alive
glows bright with vibrant beauty of starlight,
eager to write their tales in Book of Dreams.

Entranced by my limerence for the Earth,
I sing obsessive hymns of magic spells
detailing every aspect of this world
that shocks my heart with worshipful surprise
concerning tragic nuance of respect
for complex strangeness of everything real.

Amused by my limerence for the Earth,
I wear mask of every mythical god
once worshipped by the people of their tribe
so I experience energy of hope
that urges mortal man of hungry flesh
to transcend state of fear and become great.

Confused by my limerence for the Earth,
I weep for how greedy tyrants wield rage
in mind-games to enslave souls with despair
through vain attempts of toxic slavery
to exploit labor of our hands for gain
when nations kill each other for rich land.

Disturbed by my limerence for the Earth,
I tear mask of Jupiter off my face
with sly grace of the snake shedding old skin
in brave attempt to transcend animal ilk
and strive to grow angel nature of love
through honest courage of strict self-control.

Enhanced by my limerence for the Earth,
I kneel before divine Eye of Ishtar
when I achieve clear scope of conscious sight
at high point on her pyramid of growth
where she anoints me as Justice Squad Christ
to perform role as her messiah sleuth.

Defined by my limerence for the Earth,
I lead brave warriors of the serpent tooth
to fight crusade against monarchs of death
in holy war for world democracy,
defeating kings of fascist tyranny
when we found United Nations of Earth.

Inspired by my limerence for the Earth,
I channel psychic energy of faith
released through Dionysian dance of hope
to forge strong bonds of social unity
construed through Apollonian song of truth
as I transform into my natural self.

Orpheus ponders why he is obsessed by limerence with wanting every person on the Earth to live in liberty of free will to pursue their happiness.
