Weird Chameleon Name

Around to the beginning of the game
children of angels fallen from bright clouds
give each other weird chameleon name
that drapes their soul in derivative shrouds
to veil aggressive demon of the soul
which we subsume to play our social role.

Born to play estimator of true faith,
measured by extravagant flash of words,
I wear mask of Phoebus to hide dream wraith
who emulates fraternal code of birds
insolvent with parameters we grade,
qualified to disrupt the masquerade.

Coerced by fear to play the activist,
engaged in contest to prove human rights
are crucial to reign of the archivist,
I must acknowledge avatar of lights
who teaches us with pride to advocate
for people doomed to suffer by blind fate.

Essential focus of fantastic truth,
familiar to the wounded refugees
who seek salvation from messiah sleuth,
presents forensic process of glass keys
that issue fusion of magnetic thoughts
installed by mocking laughter of robots.

Antique concept of fortunate technique
conceals terse vector of sharp resonance,
disguised as royal person not unique
enough to publish startled relevance
because we gather revenue from stones
that vibrate with electric rainbow tones.

Each car mechanic at the seminar
on trauma studies in novels of clowns
proclaims their loyalty to Zathamar
while recruiting jesters in country towns
to oppose oppression of working men
who convert the shovel to the dream pen.

Subjective syntax of brave sentences,
sealed by trademark of our attentive king,
details strange keywords of his preferences
for who should wear his lost Plutonian ring
so he can learn to fly airplane of peace
by selling mystery of his masterpiece.

When the vampire god tries to suck our souls
through mindless worship of fierce followers,
Minerva recruits Phoebus to play roles
of heroes who free trapped borrowers,
but then we all grow old and weak with pain
so our power trips dissipate in rain.

Orpheus and Phoebus search vast maze of myths till they find Jesus and Lucifer playing friendly games of chess for human souls in the presidential campaign.
