Wonder At Beauty Of Life

Every road in the world leads to my home
so I visit every home in the world
and give my loneliness in ribboned book
to every person in the world I meet
who gives me their own version of my name
that binds our hearts with brutal sense of hope.
Startled by shining angel on the slope
who offers me jeweled crown of world fame,
I veil my spirit with mask of retreat
to hide in small cave by the mourning brook,
alert in shadow where my soul lies curled
as curious fox hidden in pungent loam.
Suspended between flashing poles of time,
brief blaze of insight in my urgent heart
reflects my soul in mirror pool of fate
through transitory bloom of mental scheme
contrived to wake my spirit from despair
and teach me to accept seasonal change.
Assertive purpose to extend my range
on route to anywhere humans may care
converts attention of my wordless dream
to seek new occupation where I wait
with curious breath that weaves expansive chart
which heals my wounded heart with every chime.
In dark uncertain hour before bright dawn
at weird enchantment of familiar sight
I meet the eerie presence of my faith
in faceless stranger whom I know too well
who asks if wonder at beauty of life
inspires my heart to transcend fear of death.
Fulfilled beast of my heart considers math
that calculates inherent worth of strife
to forge my soul from wisdom in harsh hell
when I first name the transcendental wraith
who teaches conscious potency of right
that fuels my mission to unking the pawn.
Since each beginning is another end
that sparks my ostentatious quest for power
I program vulgar passion to transform
weak frame of wisdom in my wounded heart
to bravery of the wolf who knows the way
through timeless moments in bloom of the rose.
When I arrive at place of my repose
beneath the apple tree where devils pray,
I build new gate from wheels of my dream cart
since I am voice of every evening storm
that rings in highest room of the ghost tower
composed of faith that crumbles into sand.

Orpheus considers how wonder at beauty of life inspires people trapped in despair to strive against blind contingency of fate in search for someone to love.
