Idea Of Liberty For All

This grand idea of Liberty for all,
who seek to live outside the greed-hard wall,
shall stand on wide shores of America
with brave courage of Mother Onatah
long after cruel tyrants like Midas fall
so we prosper in shared Res Publica.

Bright shining still on our storm-battered shore,
clear lamp of freedom that lights every door,
held high by bold hand of Democracy,
our new colossus, Lady Liberty,
shall guide our quest for truth forever more
as we create life through fertility.

When Emma holds my trauma-shaken hand
that fascists oppress people of our land,
she reminds me with blazing eyes of faith
that conquerors like Midas, blind with wrath,
will always fall when people dare to stand
against cruel hate, and choose love as our path.

Immortal spirit of Athena shines
in Statue of Liberty hope designs,
for though her justice seems to arrive late
she will always stand at our sunset gate
to guide refugees from prisoning mines
so we can build new homes with hearty fate.

People from every nation of the Earth,
who leave nationalist states decayed from dearth
of opportunities to work with pride,
commit to principle oppressors hide
that every human grows through sense of worth
in Land of Liberty where laws abide.

Though Helios had fallen long ago,
shattered by failure of the power show,
his daughter Liberty with Lamp of Truth
lights the true way for our messiah sleuth
to nurture every soul who wants to grow
through urgent admiration of his ruth.

When our shared world view seems to fall apart,
because Midas hijacks the Market Cart
by exploiting fear of the refugee
who seeks opportunity to live free,
Spirit of Freedom inhabits our heart
as Liberty gives every soul her key.

Tyrants come and go, drowned by tides of change,
and empires rise and fall in temporal range,
but Mother of Exiles, wise Liberty,
forever rules our world democracy
with justice for all souls, which may seem strange,
to sustain our creative energy.

Orpheus stands before Statue of Liberty and plays lyre of Mercury as he sings holy hymn The New Colossus to welcome refugees from every land to live in America.
