Weird Water Glow

If you interview me for the dream job,
though I have no experience with death,
you might see story of abandonment
that I disguise as the need to leave home
and seek my fortune in game of the world
which leaves me tangled in conceptual lies.

The oldest woman in the world recites
creation of the world with Water Voice
describing how woman in the sun
sprinkles refreshing rain of honesty
on upturned faces of the prayerless tribe
who sell conceptual lies in honey jars.

When lightning flashes gold across the sky
I look up to see man in long white robe
descend on golden chariot of fire
propelled by million wings of buzzing shards,
then spread his arms open to everyone
who worship monarch of authority.

With face of Janus I can look both ways,
reviewing the past with stories I write,
and calculating what road I should walk
to evade destruction of the world war
that clears rubble of the past from my field
where I build global empire of fruit trees.

Heart swelling with honest desire for good,
I feel immortal spirit of star light
glow brighter every hour inside my brain
with shocking revelation of rebirth
that my children will live after I die
so I lounge by the river and eat fruit.

Mixing peanut butter with apple sauce
and honey in white bowl of my pure heart,
I perform ritual to worship Pomona
when I wear mask of Vertumnus with joy,
so we dance together on the lake shore
to celebrate rebirth of Earth from snow.

As student of Orpheus Christ I learn
how to chant soul-reviving spells that spark
animating ghost of weird water glow
that urges hungry humans to create
memory-machine from language that translates
songs of wind and rain to religious myths.

Though tyrants destroy everything we build
in vain attempt to control hearts and minds,
we build new world order based on respect
for every conscious creature on this globe
whose bodies vibrate with light of the stars
that preserve our names in weird water glow.

Orpheus teaches Janus how to analyze current events as effective consequences designed by causes of past choices humans perform.
