Page 229 – Fantasia: Rite of Spring

[Intro – whispered chant over strings] Ave Maria fades, but the mountain still moans, Demons dance in the dark while the sacrifice groans. [Verse 1] They placed Schubert’s hymn beside Stravinsky’s pain, sacred Ave Maria chained to a pagan refrain, A virgin spinning circles till her body collapsed, while the children in theaters clapped as if innocence hadn’t been trapped, Orchestras swelling with colors picked to control, hues stitched deliberate to fracture the soul, It wasn’t art for art, it was order through design, a ritual scored in ink, a sermon hidden in rhyme. Gunther Lessing leaned on Stravinsky’s will, mafia muscle pressed the pen until the contract was filled, And the Rite of Spring a virgin’s death by dance became Fantasia’s frame, Disney’s secret trance. [Hook – choir with timpani crashes] Fantasia burns with a Rite of Spring, Death and rebirth on a demon’s string. Ave Maria bound in the frame, Sacrifice sold in the artist’s name. [Verse 2] Mickey sweeps the floor but the brooms multiply, chaos floods the room while the sorcerer hides, Children laugh at the water but the parable’s deep, Magic is power when the master’s asleep. Snow White’s coffin, Pinocchio’s prayer, Resurrection rituals replayed everywhere. Every story revised, every symbol designed, Programming the slave through the nursery rhyme. Debussy’s Clair de Lune clipped and concealed, Flying cranes shelved, their vision repealed, Pieces too raw for the masses to see, So they buried the music but preserved the key. [Hook – layered chants with swelling choir] Fantasia burns with a Rite of Spring, Death and rebirth on a demon’s string. Ave Maria bound in the frame, Sacrifice sold in the artist’s name. [Verse 3] Aldous Huxley drafted doors in the mind, Julian wrote doctrines for a world redefined, Darwin’s bloodline scripted science as chains, while the studio projected illusions on the brain. Hearst funded the Motion Alliance front, Walt as vice president carried their blunt, Not for freedom but fealty, feigned as art, Every reel rehearsed to condition the heart. Colors calibrated for hypnosis sway, Wonderful World of Color wasn’t child’s play, It was science disguised as a television glow, It was wavelengths chosen for the minds they’d grow. And behind the curtain the programmers smiled, At how easily illusions enslaved every child. [Bridge – slow, ominous tone] Death in a dance, rebirth in a reel, The puppet show smiles but the scars never heal. [Verse 4] In a theater dark, a virgin’s breath expired, Stravinsky’s notes aligned with what the lodge required, Ave Maria mocked beside Bald Mountain’s flame, Every chord chained to the programmer’s game. Snow White dies then wakes with a kiss, Pinocchio’s wish teaches slavery’s bliss, Every frame retooled, every line recast, So the future would echo the cult’s past. And when critics declared Fantasia a flop, The programmers laughed because the ritual dropped. It wasn’t box office gold they sought to secure, It was planting a script in the subconscious pure. [Hook – final, grand, with pounding drums] Fantasia burns with a Rite of Spring, Death and rebirth on a demon’s string. Ave Maria bound in the frame, Sacrifice sold in the artist’s name. [Outro – whispered overlapping voices fading into choir] Dance till you die, rise in disguise, Cartoon colors conceal the lies. Rite of Spring, Fantasia’s fire, Sacrifice masked as children’s desire.
