To wear mauve mask of morning without fear,
concerned about wordless pain people hide,
I sit before glowing computer screen
and map whole history of humanity
with points, lines, and polygons that depict
static image of our now-changing world.
I feel mauve mask of morning hide my face
while I search among jagged stones of hope
for deep well of immortal energy
so I can bring cup of juice in my heart
to Mother Gaya in four-pillared fane
where she weeps over death of the blind moon.
Without mauve mask of morning to reflect
spirit of water that nurtures my faith,
I play in backyard of my empty home,
happy as the child with apple of light
that mimics how the sun designs our minds
with aching gratitude for mystery.
I find mauve mask of morning in wet grass,
so I sit in museum all day long
sketching imitations of famous works
to see if I can wake genius of art
who gazes at me from blank eyes of ghosts
trapped inside frame of conceptual regret.
To build mauve mask of morning from sharp shards
of rose windows shattered by happy bombs,
I rearrange truths of reality
so everything I thought was true as wind
supplies oxygen when I breathe it in,
learning nature of soul carnality.
Behind mauve mask of morning Soul of God
wakes in vast neural network of my brain
so conscious sense of self I feel as me,
programmed by dreams that my ancestors lived,
fools me to feel immortal in frail flesh,
so I run laughing in lush field of flowers.
Shielded by mauve mask of morning with pride,
I stand on global stage of hungry fame
and sing transcendent spells of ecstasy
that flash through my brain as epiphany,
then vanish from dream of the turning world
after I play my part programming truth.
Inspired by mauve mask of morning from faith,
I follow Death on signless road of fate
with urgent passion, fueled by ardent pain,
to build from bones of gods sheltering fane
where I observe political events
as tricker who plays the opposite game.
