Emerald Tablet Of Faith

Bright spark of truth you long to clearly see
evades attentive focus of your mind
by slipping through containing words of fact
to slither stealthily straight past your face
in flashing sponge computer brain of god
who sings salvation of the humming toad.

Earnest commitment to study the sea
inspires your hungry heart to understand
brutal ghosts of honesty books depict
as noble heroes corrupted by vice
for greed to live beyond death as robot
entranced by drunk revelry of the goat.

Justice you fight to achieve every day
wanders blind in waste land of silent prayer
with plan to steal Emerald Tablet of Faith
on which is written riddles of your fate
in writhing runes that burn your staring eyes
as you evolve beyond the fake-god phase.

Reluctant to pursue the Golden Way,
you linger in tower room with cracked mirror
where Rapunzel gave birth to the God Wraith,
and ponder what drives wounded souls to hate
oligarchs who rule the world with dream spies
while you wander lost in religious maze.

Trembling in harsh cold of state negligence
outside castle door where the elite squad
gather to praise each other for their poems,
you snarl with bitterness they left you out
instead of forming new exclusive club
for your own gang of dolls who love your work.

Winning grand awards without precedence,
you proudly proclaim you are not the fraud
who howls with angst that the circus clown roams
endless streets of gold to earn social clout
as leader of three men in the wealth tub
who sail seven seas where mad dolphins lurk.

Startled by sudden undoing of laws
that governed good behavior in our land,
you try to vote for Minerva the Wise
who would arrest Midas with his small hands
for treason against decency and truth,
but Bacchus steals the crown of thorns Christ wore.

Measuring effects of the primal cause
by which wild swerving atoms form star band,
you fail to parse his endless stream of lies
entangling logical concerns with brands
of wealth decoded by messiah sleuth
who leads wounded angels on the sea shore.

Orpheus removes mask of the You Persona, and reveals his intention to discombobulate the masses by deconstructing their cherished world view.
