Oblivion of faith in blank field of snow,
that erases our corrupted world view,
calls us to stir from beauty of the dream
where we thrive in community of trust,
but wake with ache for what has never been
with oneiralgia for that Never World.
Heart mutable with adjectives of hope,
I walk forever on the signless road
with ache of love still rotting in my hands
to find shadow of Heaven in my heart
where I can hide from demon of desire
whose beauty lures me to valley of death.
Bright in smudged mirror of Forever Now,
my past and future selves unborn play me
behind mask of hunger I have to wear,
which my mother crafted for me from love,
so I can bear it as lamp of her heart
with weird glow that reveals road I must blaze.
Awake in lonely times of Nevermore,
I gaze at pages in the holy book,
with cover crafted from orange melon skin,
to dream how my mother performed her role
with improvised assertion of calm grace
to maintain dignity of honest schemes.
Resolve to aim for target of respect,
which must objectify cruel contempt,
inspires her shameless passion to design
our complex system of communal rites
that maps strict pattern of performance art
which channels how we generate new life.
Unbidden by dream-pain of fractured eyes,
when I design weird oneiralgic spells,
I float in laughter of the stopless clock
to measure change of blossoms from my corpse
when children pluck fruit from my tangled limbs
and sing while feasting on juice of the sun.
Returning as the crow with crystal eyes,
I dance in ring of stones at flash of dawn
to raise wise Cleopatra from the dead
so she can occupy my monstrous head
with revelation that conceptual pride
can nurture how messiahs rule the world.
Though all we build has fallen into ruins,
demolished by the crownless king of greed,
we dance with serpent of the fruitful tree
and plot new revolution to restore
global state where oneiromancers weave
world tapestry that includes every soul.
