Brave Bavarian Spirit

For Halloween on next October night
I will go dressed as the honest Kurt Eisner
who ruled the Folk State of Bavaria
after they drove out the arrogant king
with program to attend prosperous peace
till he was shot in the back by despair.

Cruel tyrants always grasp for social power
with fierce intent to found their dynasty
through aggressive violence against dissent,
but honest philosophers like Kurt Eisner
rise from the crowd of earnest discontent
to support fair justice through liberty.

Though none remember Kurt Eisner today,
his ghost crowded off stage of history
by hordes of vampires fighting for the wand
that Charlemagne wielded with self-control,
his spirit focused on rights of the people
inspires honest folk to fight monarchy.

From ruins of shattered political states
wise seers enlightened by philosophy
construct republics based on equal rights
with liberal principles which constitute
functional departments that should provide
broad services for every citizen.

The brave soul motivated by respect,
who dedicates their heart with solemn vow
to cultivate skills of talented hands,
employs courageous art of sacrifice
that nurtures loyal love of citizens
to work for the greater good of their state.

Though I live far across the globe
from fertile valleys of Bavaria
where my ancestors thrived ten thousand years,
my heart remains in ancient misty woods
where spirit of my courage still runs free
with moon-eyed wolves of courteous liberty.

My face, reflected in clear Chiemsee Lake,
reveals Elysian landscape of my dreams
where I perceive pure essence of the Earth
refracted clear through hearts of human souls
who gather on lush lake shore every year
for grand festival on midsummer eve.

With brave Bavarian spirit of the wolf,
alive with passion for beautiful truth
that glows sun-hot in core of my true being,
I fight for strong communal charity
to reinforce justice and liberty
that pulses as heart of democracy.
