Linking America to Angloland
through Arthurity of my startled heart,
I cartograph through noble characters
narrative charter of our mythless state,
rebuilding both Eden and Avalon
as amusement parks where children can play.

Constructing nation of Zarathia
from crumbling ruins of America,
I constitute new order of the world
based on liberty and justice for all
that aggregates all nations of the Earth
with equal opportunity to live.

To be means to belong to the tale
of all world nations united through law
that treats each individual with fair code,
instead of the enclosed genetic tribe,
for all humans on this resourceful globe
spring from One Mother who taught us to sing.

Though Justice sometimes seems to take too long
to bend arc of the universe toward right,
we stake fate on Utopian asymptote
to secure thin curve from rational function
of historical progress toward democracy
against existential void of despair.

Great heroes die into world narrative
when selfless deeds of courage they perform
inspire our hearts with vision of their role
as now essential to our social health
so we idolize them as divine gods
to preserve ideal spirit of their trope.

To achieve immortality through fame
as stereotype based on your character,
you must sacrifice your life to your myth
through curse of fortune engineered by stars
which molds your spirit to mask of your mind
portrayed in Museum of Faceless Gods.

After empire of America falls,
corrupted by greed of the narcissist
who tries to make himself hero of fate
till his fantasy collapses from lies,
we rewrite tale of our democracy
signified with new name Zarathia.

Zarathia means courage of the truth,
which motivates our quest for liberty,
inspires brave heart of every human being
who shares this globe from sea to shining sea
with generous attention of respect
to each soul whose tale weaves our world myth.
