Misty Vales Of Caledonia

Through misty vales of Caledonia
with lamp of Diogenes on my hand,
I search for the dream ghost of everywhere
who seems to know the secret of my name,
because I hear her voice in tangled woods
sing heart-enchanting melody of love.

In shadowed woods of Caledonia
with sharp spear of Longinus in my hand,
I find Carline, daughter of Hecate,
brewing cauldron of honey mushroom wine
so I offer apples from Tree of Truth
to star-eyed Nicnevan with long black hair.

On jagged hills of Caledonia
with blunt Hammer of Thor in my hand,
I build stone towers as havens of faith
where daughters of Scathach may dwell in peace
to raise brave children of their aching hearts
who map the world with hard feet of desire.

From rugged shores of Caledonia
with billowed sails of curiosity,
I sail wood ship on flashing waves of hope
along Black River of Goddess Danu
who leads her people to the Promised Land
to live safe from the swords of hungry greed.

Up winding trails of Caledonia
with Wand of Zambor to steady my gait,
I climb fairy hill of Sith Chailleann
where winds of wisdom swirling flakes of snow
speak with voices my ancestors expressed
about strange history of humanity.

By sparkling lakes of Caledonia
with eye-phone linking to the world wide web,
I film deep waters of placid Loch Ness
in hope to see lithe monster of God Mind
that lurks in lightless abyss of my heart
with arcane knowledge of all human fate.

Down secret caves of Caledonia
with flashlight that illuminates the mind,
I find skulls of demonic dinosaurs,
who roamed the world millions of years ago
before we evolved to angels from mice,
to record riddles of their prophecies.

Across lush fields of Caledonia
with horse of courage swift as morning wind,
I confront the dream ghost of everywhere
who shows me how history will unfold
through revelation of messiah sleuth
whose spirit wakes in hearts of all mankind.

Orpheus maps rugged land of Caledonia, then returns to Thrace where he presents his map of the world to Kotys in her mountain cave of dreams.
