Safe In Hungry Obscurity

We unknown singers of our crowded world,
who channel spirit of Apollo clear
in visions that project our fantasies
about weird socialist Heaven on Earth
where all are equal in justice of truth,
are now safe in hungry obscurity.

Marching together with our flag unfurled,
that signals program of the puppeteer
to legalize uniform policies
which equalize what each person is worth,
we follow project of messiah sleuth
to ensure world social security.

Though we live in hierarchic-powered state,
which layers classes in high stacks of wealth
where the rich will always exploit the poor
in fiscal empire managed by Elite,
we view Heaven as socialist ideal
where all are equal under one fair law.

Bound by families we choose based on fate,
who share concerns in sickness and in health
with principle of love fusing our core,
we thrive through crafting work in one heartbeat
when we finalize our communal deal
sealed to help us transcend our tragic flaw.

If Fame discovers power of our verse
to wake the people from broken world views,
which sparks good revolution against greed,
she would drag us from safe obscurity
and expose our compassion-tender hearts
to brutal ridicule of angry mobs.

Far more than a blessing, Fame is a curse
that would force us to pay more than our dues
in noble project to design new creed
that would provide conceptual surety
for each soul to analyze their own star charts
in seeking rewards beyond normal jobs.

Trapped in trajectory conformed by Fate
to become special type of character
that we design through every choice we make,
we singers of the world, mapping our tales,
glow bright with passion of sincerity
when we create vision of paradise.

Through fertile luck our choices generate,
inspired by tragic fate of Lucifer,
we emanate the real to fell the fake,
then navigate past death on shining trails
which keeps our souls safe in obscurity,
purchased from fear with selfless sacrifice.
