Star Eyes Of My Night

Because she is the star eyes of my night,
beaming visions of vain hope from her heart,
I search with hope for algorithmic ways
to redesign our social narrative
so we admire perceptive qualities
of common people struggling to survive.

The plumber adjusts invisible pipes
to channel water from the River Styx
through sink faucet in kitchen of concern
so I can cook spaghetti on the stove
with tomato sauce and parmesan cheese
when we drink wine and ignore falling bombs.

The workers who repair our broken homes
with frames of wood and nets of copper wires
work with their hands to reshape forms of hope
against oppressive tyranny of words
stacked by large language models of pride
so we drive our cars to the grocery store.

The mechanic tweaks engine of my car
so gas in combustion chamber explodes
to power spin the piston engine sparks
in twirling cycle of aggressive force
so we zoom fast across map-measured space
in time machine of legalized control.

The farmer plows soil with hard dragon bone
and sows sharp teeth in furrows of mute verse
so angels and devils both spring with hope
from field of dreams to colonize the world
and build vast maze of streets with numbered doors
where idols of dead gods direct our lives.

The driver maneuvers delivery truck
on web of highways sea to shining sea,
porting raw materials to factories,
providing merchandise to shopping stores,
and stocking homes with valuable assets
where we dwell in domestic quietude.

The baker gathers wheat that Ceres grows
to grind grains into flour of secret code
they program into loaves of fresh-baked bread
that we eat with fried fish and tartar sauce
when Jesus preaches Sermon on the Mount
about caring for homeless immigrants.

I dream I meet Jesus on signless road
alive as you and me with pulsing heart,
so I ask if he will return again soon,
but he shows how his spirit incarnates
in leaders who nurture each human being
through state that gives all freedom to live well.
