Sacred Mirror Of The Oracle
Sacred Mirror Of The Oracle

I walk without my shadow on the Earth
while all vast cities of the world dissolve
to lost stories of legendary deeds
since frantic hunger of this eager life
is bright illusion of the dancing flame
that whorls abundance of the secret name.
I dance with beam of sunlight in my heart
at blinking signal of the traffic light
while searching endless maze of city streets
for sacred mirror of the oracle
that should reveal rules of the global game
we play to win vain laurels of world fame.
I play chess with blind Death on beach of truth
to wake my innate voice of noble thoughts
illumined by light slanting through cracked eyes
revealing where our signless road should go
from birth to nothingness of mortal dream
so we lounge chatting by the mountain stream.
I climb tall monument to some dead god
with plan to play his role in game of life
till spirit of his passion fills my heart
with urgent mission of messiah sleuth
to reform system of our social scheme
so everyone may work for the same team.
Abundance of our conscious hungry souls
provides incentive for constructive work
erecting paradise of apple trees
on rotten ruins of religious creeds
so we map roads where war refugees roam
by hiding safe in our heavenly home.
Reluctance of programmers to police
cluttered clemency of the urban zone
converts believers in the cosmic wraith
to seekers who research nature of things
that bloom ideas in celestial dome
which prophets chronicle in the dream tome.
We walk for peace from sea to shining sea
with holy demons of exploited hearts
in search for justice free from slavery
though nothing guarantees our victory
because all conscious minds will sink in gloom
therefore we float faceless in the blank room.
We share our stories by the homely hearth
to bury sorrows of forgotten years
then cart ripe fruit to market by the lake
where we feast as the new year wakes our hearts
to celebrate our bodies of the womb
that dissolve to dust in the vine-veiled tomb.

Orpheus celebrates the new year by eradicating all weapons of mass destruction, then organizing opposing ideologies to support the United Nations of Earth.
