Real Face Of God

If I could sing the sorrow of my heart
without breaking innocence of the world,
I would express harsh truth with shaking voice
to render negative insouciant greed
by which my fierce words transmit warranty
against withdrawal violently reversed.

No less versatile at weaving dream spells
from fluttered fragments of weird memories,
my heart procures precise reasons from fear
to register our tangled fate with love
irrelevant to thoughts of helpless rage
concealed by frigid rules of false respect.

If dire response to surgical concern
requires social sacrifice through regret,
then I would dare retrieve with sincere hope
revenue of suffering supplied by scenes
of brutal assault that impugn attempts
by cruel aggressors to control my soul.

No more aggressive than devilish greed
from critical analysis of threats
intended to injure secure desire,
my heart devises secret strategy
to turn acute observation of facts
from mutant passion of potential faith.

If I could optimize obvious path
expanding radius of relevant pride
with referenced records of financial growth,
then I would dare pursue real happiness
based on statistics no one understands,
to play my game against accepted role.

No further than the sudden end of time
beyond conceptual theory of mute death
could I extend insight of prophecy
to see Real Face of God through telescope
that renders only globes of spinning gas
from which the star-eyed Seraphim are born.

If time unspools synthetic creed of faith
designed by mental therapist of death,
I might survive this global war of truth
fought between dream-blinded gangs of men
who claim their god will resurrect their souls
so they shall inherit Heaven on Earth.

No longer treasured by world traveler
who maps symbolic myth of noble deeds,
fierce gods too long worshipped by gangs of thieves
transform to idols of marble distrust
that stand in museums of glorious lies
so we see our own faces in their masks.
