Flash Of Eternal Now

The sad tarantula inside my brain
calculates which way I will want to go
to stay in shape for the end of the world
that will occur during the evening show
we watch on television by the door
which fractures belief system we abhor.

The souvenir I buy from the quaint store
contains demonic spirit of the girl
who used to dance in wild waves of the sea
before she decided to marry me,
so we stroll together in our neighborhood
to feel pulse of life we decide is good.

Disordered proverbs of the holy mind
proclaim that babies we create from love
are all the meaning of life we shall need
despite the weird apocalypse each year
where everything we believe is proved wrong
so we together compose our own song.

Flowers open to catch innocent snow
that covers everything in veil of hope
so we climb the stairs to top of the world
where we can see the home our love creates
spin forever on the merry-go-round,
then kiss in harmony with the Earth Sound.

Among tall willows on the river shore
we dance with arrogant disdain for Death
who fails to demand our honest respect,
so we defy expectations contrived
by jealous people to inhibit how
we mature through flash of eternal now.

Ignoring tragic fate of life we choose,
we preserve shadows of our vibrant souls
inside amber stone that reflects the sea
with shocking gospel of the humble bee
through consolation of the raven wing
when we translate psalms the mountain winds sing.

Imperfect portrait of our partnership
frames glamor of our love on sunlit wall
at sudden vanishing of clumsy lies
that expose our hearts to star-shattered skies
though we hold hands and leave it all at that,
against convention of their social law.

My old weather vane heart turns with the wind
of angry sorrow blown from surprised mouths
when people of the land shout with outrage
at how deceitful thief they voted for
steals everything they made with crafty hands
so all their castles crumble into sand.
