Nation Of Our Dreams

Sharp slant of light that hefts my heart with love
weighs heavy on my mind with subtle fear
at fierce destructive hurricane of hope
that sweeps across weird nation of our dreams,
dismantling truths about nature of life
we took for granted as mirage we trust.

Yet people who go to work every day
ignore dark terror of the nevermore
that looms in shadow of wordless despair
grimly low over nation of our dreams,
because our hearts would shatter from distress
in fragments of principles we respect.

I see the people of America
gather in every city, large and small,
to protest the clown who crowns himself king
when he sends goons in nation of our dreams
to arrest all hard-working immigrants
so he can drive us out of our homeland.

I cannot change the world with spell I sing
but I can record in riddles of code
crimes he commits against our human rights
till we reclaim vast nation of our dreams
as home for everyone who works and plays,
sharing liberty and justice for all.

Thus I record daily social events
in global journal about human rights
that chronicles our struggle to survive
as free agents in nation of our dreams
strong against his systematic abuse
to protect our people against his greed.

When the old tyrant in his shabby suit
asks soldiers to march in parade of power,
they trudge forlornly past his plastic throne
while all across broad nation of our dreams
millions of people gather to protest,
for we have no kings in America.

When cruel dictators feel weak and afraid
they force fierce soldiers to march in parades
with gaudy display of excessive force
to tighten grip on nation of our dreams,
but we laugh at illusion of their power
as they fall from tower of haughty pride.

Slant of light that pierces my aching heart
refracts divine energy of god mind
through pulsing sponge of my electric brain
so I sing across nation of our dreams
grand hymns to honor Goddess Liberty
who reigns forever in America.

Orpheus waves the Stars and Stripes as he leads the parade of human beings who protest tyranny of the fake king who clings to illusions of power.
