Frothing Fantasy Of Faith

Assertive passion to survive and thrive
drives us down winding road of starry goals
so through the cluttered years of middle age
we strive with frantic passion to succeed
when we build frothing fantasy of faith
based on fiction of our Heaven on Earth.

Reborn as Apollonian ironist,
sparked by collision of opposing forces
between structured beauty of ordered faith
and chaos of nihilistic despair,
I balance oscillating energies
to channel terror through religious hymns.

Striving to contain mental urgencies
with drive for structured beauty of calm order,
I recognize that my ultimate truths
are founded on unstable fantasies,
so I craft beautiful fictions of truth
that I find necessary to live well.

Contriving concept of philosophy
through linguistic psychology of ideas
that material objects of atomic force
are molded by ideal concepts of thought,
I drive my car along highway of hope
to cartograph the world in map of truth.

Between wild dance of Dionysian passion
and ordered march of Apollonian research,
I bind eternal spirit of my genes
with fragile grace of this body I train
to maintain constant vibrancy of change
which generates my artificial world.

With Apollonian irony of faith
I channel my existential detachment
into creation of deliberate form
through ceaseless endurance of discipline
till I master craft of molding weird dreams
in structured Gothinettes of prophecy.

When I climb mountain peak of global insight,
I gaze back down my road of evolution
from fish to newt to mouse to cat to monkey
to ape to wingless angel singing spells
that conjure frothing fantasy of faith
as wine I drink while strumming Lyre of Phoebus.

How strange to feel myself alive this hour,
one grape-node on long vine of ancestry
as body replicating code of genes
that urges me to generate new child
so immortal soul of atomic mind
lives again in our quest to become god.

Orpheus teaches Dionysus how to play the lyre, and Apollo how to release his obsession to control fate, so they both become more like each other with balance of mental health.
