Columbian Sibyl

Because Earth spawns our bodies from the sea
with untroubled passion to touch the stars,
I dream about the world before our birth
and how it spins long after we are gone
with simple spirals around the blind sun
though I hope I evolve to something weird.

With my unreckoning heart by the sea
I wonder when we humans, urged by lust
to populate this globe with avatars
of hungry energy through masks of stone,
will vanish into swirls of nothingness
though we swim down to bottom of the heart.

Clouds crumble into sparkles of sweet rain
that flush my soul with madness of desire
so I pluck berries from long tangled vines
to deconstruct how empires congregate
gangs of thieves in government institutes
which manage function of productive minds.

No lark may long avoid reach of my eye
with flashing wings of time-slip innocence
when I ride Xanthus on bright river shore
with unshelled courage of the blood-stained rose
as tongueless prophet of the modern age
when oligarchs control the mental stage.

I open bronze annals of the oak tree
to calculate excessive flow of thoughts
our brains exert to analyze how hope
spurs each new generation of the Earth
to fight colossal war for social power
where Columbian Sybil dwells in the tower.

While frightened people of the nation work
day in and day out through endless routine,
the star-eyed prophet from the mountain cave
strides city streets from sea to shining sea
with serpents writhing in his long gray hair
as he proclaims fall of America.

From ruins of ambition soon will rise,
wise prophet of Columbian Sibyl cries,
new nation you shall call Zarathia
that will replace your failed America
with true justice and liberty for all
who may live as they will, if they harm none.

Because Earth spawns our spirits from the wind
with voice of the owl that booms in our hearts,
I dream how United Nations of Earth
binds people of the world in global clan
based on brave principle of ardent faith
that mothers mold our souls from words of love.

Orpheus supports Hera who urges Zeus to pass laws regulating marital relationships that support mothers as they raise children of our United Nations of Earth.
