Mountain of Dancing Trees

Through stories we tell about life on Earth
we program our children with moral code
how to perceive beauty in changing forms
if we have found enlightenment of truth
through ideology that blinds our eyes
to see gods on mountain of dancing trees.

Reversing point of view with mirror eyes
through oscillation of opposing thoughts,
we measure angles of disparate truths
since verity depends on vantage point
so experience points to more complex whole
that we map on mountain of dancing trees.

Too many facets of one diamond gem
refract apparent opposites in view
so different angles of one whole event
appear to contradict analysis,
therefore I puzzle fragments in one truth
when I play on mountain of dancing trees.

Each concept I retrieve from pool of facts
provides one disunited piece of life
which I collage in mural of grand truth
connecting unrelated data points
in fluctuating web of certainties
that blossoms on mountain of dancing trees.

Embodiment of gear-wound paradox
in complex personas our brains design,
I explore purple mountain majesties
to understand courage of bravery
when people with much help people with naught
to dwell safe on mountain of dancing trees.

Quiet mathematics of selfless love
calculates investment without return
when people help each other generate
food and goods from minerals of the Earth
that fuels function of social enterprise
we settle on mountain of dancing trees.

Toward inaudible light of pulsing hearts
we live in language of our hungry tongues
by breathing wind of hope on river flow
for inspiration of the garden faith
which nurtures us with brightness of the star
that shimmers on mountain of dancing trees.

Brewing juice on altar of Hygia,
I listen to young maids of Caryae sing
hymns at the festival of Artemis
where thousands of worshippers in white robes
honor grace of women who create life
in temple on mountain of dancing trees.

Orpheus plays Lyre of Mercury while the Caryae dance before Artemis to celebrate birth of her daughter who will play Artemis when she grows up.
