Caesar’s, civilization,
like, all, secular,
societies, came, to,
a, full, stop, period,
no, more, does, it, exist.
While Christ’s Kingdom freely flows forward and is everlasting.

- Comment from author about the poem: If only one had eyes to see … A caesura, or forced pause, an interruption- typically used in writing, is also a poetic technique used for the same purposes: the creation of a forced paused. The way I use it in the first stanza is to create a disruptive, jerky process typical of man made, man only regimes that will starkly contrast against the final line, a line meant to exemplify the affairs of God loving humankind as they were created to be: promising, smooth, and peacefully everlasting.

I'm.liking.this.poem.and.the words.in.it.
I ran out of commas. You used them all. But it's driven the spell-checker crazy. Notice the full stops here! lol.
It does convey a deeper meaning - Caesar and men's kingdoms stopping and starting, pausing as commas. Then no commas, no caesuras in Christ's kingdom in your final line!
You nailed it Orchidee!
