Dreams Of Atom Eyes

Despite morbid beauty of heartless trees
stomping with root feet on asphalt highways,
which tears them apart in fragments of fear,
we vote to cut them into planks of wood
so we can build Bridge of Forgetfulness
across abyss of wretched travesties.

Startled awake by sudden storm-sharp breeze
that causes us to shudder in our maze
of rattled doors, possessed by puppeteer
born in the hall of mirrors, Neptune laughs
and runs without restraint on glowing beach
to catch elusive butterfly of truth.

Curious to comprehend concept of good,
invented by the witch of of cheerfulness,
I carve runes to record weird memories
that seem to involve uniformed giraffes
earning state-stamped certificates to teach
oracles uttered by messiah sleuth.

Tremulous demons of benevolence,
neglected by children of Pegasus,
study in college to be specialists
in various disciplines with secret codes
designed to program how our brains perceive
clusters of color as objective forms.

Meticulous agents of arrogance,
confounded by riddles of Sisyphus,
decide to work as honest corporatists
in secret project to control the world,
conducting war of arbitrary rules
against free agents of psychotic will.

Arrested by agents of haughty toads,
who disregard laws of fate to deceive
innocent people with conceptual storms,
blind prophet becomes the new cosmic herald
whose scriptures are studied in global schools
by wizards who play on capitol hill.

Though my heart, gentle as the whippoorwill,
respects each person in the global choir
who sings with billion voices of One Mind,
I rest in cave of illusions to feel
electric flashing of the cosmic wheel
that weaves my brain from dreams of atom eyes.

Hearts burning bright as bush on Mount Horeb,
we dance together on the river shore
after trudging ten years in the waste land
to gaze astonished at star-eyed cherub
who sells ripe apples at the grocery store
till state agents deport him from our land.

Orpheus flies to the distant land to retrieve the grocery store clerk who was wrongly deported with false claims the he is a gang member.
