Amused By Fractal Trance

After giving birth to ghost of her heart,
Minerva raises Titan to respect
lives of the people struggling to survive
while farming soil of sorrow with brave hands
that carve weird face of god in fertile fields
embodied by trees that bristle with fruit.

With ache of wisdom glowing in her heart,
Minerva ponders why birds and cows wait
for meteors to flash words across the sky
that prophesy return of the Sea Queen
who leads millions of people to protest
aggressive tyranny of greedy kings.

Ten million frogs croaking in swamp of hope
swarm streets of cities in army of clowns
who mock the dictator in plastic crown
while he struts on the aircraft carrier
and declares himself emperor of the world
while he plays with Death in the Black House.

Amused by fractal trance of lazy winds
that shimmer off dark sea of earnest faith,
Minerva promises abundant growth
to people who luxuriate in rage
against conceptual machine of dire wealth
that fractures democratic wall of fear.

Beneath high tower of the singing skull,
awake with mute compassion for the poor,
Minerva bakes apple pies for the church
where Orion plays piano on stage
about sweet angels who herald the king
who never shows up to manage the world.

Kneeling in cathedral of broken glass,
Minerva prays with fervency of faith
for communist Utopia of Heaven
where everyone is equal without class
though all societies on Earth are stacked
in strict hierarchies of nobility.

Magnetic breath of arrogant respect
reverses stolen casualty of facts
alternative to world-accepted truths
against oppression of the weak and poor
trapped by opinion that all should live free,
true to themselves through brave sincerity.

Emotional tension from tyranny
determines cowardice of loyalty
that fosters blind conformity to power
when people stumble in obscuring fog
that shrouds the city in official lies
till Minerva leads fight to restore truth.
