Morbid Princess Of The Sea

Mask of the sad princess floats in the air
because Phoebus weeps in front of the portrait
of Mona Lisa on the cavern wall
which still reflects dynamic disks of shadows
exposing portals to the multiverse
where detectives and ballerinas kiss.

Dipping his hands in the cold river flow,
Phoebus asks morbid princess of the sea
to ponder relationships as spirals
obscuring endless swirls of vibrant waves
which unravel bitterness of emotions
entangling puzzles of fraught marriages.

Wild children leap through space with mental blades
to fall asleep in bright maze of rose bushes
where Fear sells comic books as holy scripture
to astronauts who challenge thunder gods
for domination of the empty skies
till we all fall to Earth with crippled wings.

Strange names Adams invents to symbolize
personality traits as animals
reveal eccentric grace of Jupiter
who recites laws for Noah to record
since God creates the virtual universe
by naming objects as formal ideas.

Gathering lavender from dew-wet fields,
Phoebus wanders lost through Elysium
with plan to ask Emzara in her bower
to marry him before the towers fall,
but she hurtles her glass tablet computer
which shatters on the tombstone of her father.

To study weird physics of global fame,
grim black-haired daughter of Odin explores
ghost-haunted forest of the laughing crow
to evade grand popularity parade,
but the more she repels insidious pride
they more it magnets to her iron heart.

Gripping hammer of Thor with eager hope,
Phoebus forges the law-sharp sword of justice
from meteor stone that blazed from the heavens,
then leads grand army of the free republic
to overthrow the tyrant on gold throne
and free financial slaves from psychic debt.

Though rotary phone on the kitchen wall
never rings in asylum of the mind,
Phoebus sits at the table of false dreams
to arrange fragments of history facts
with code that shows how empires rise and fall,
framed by analysis of private jokes.
