The Fires of Faith

Gino

The sign of the times

are upon us

as the book of Revelation

is laid opened

 

The twilight hours

act in concurrence

with the dread

of the crimson moon

giving its curse

to subdue the land

 

Dreams of

an impending doom

drive the mad

to seek the comfort of prayer

to distance themselves

from the wrath of God

 

In the shadow

of a cathedral

the righteous gather

to escape the ominous,

seeking a miracle

to deliver them

from the phantom menace

 

Impervious to the doctrines

of their faith,

a martyrdom ensues

devouring their

faithful subjects

to near extinction

 

A sinister shroud

unveils the apocalypto

as madness reigns

across the desolate

ruins of civilization,

unlike any other time in history

since its infancy

 

The intriguing eye of the Illuminati,

who cohorts in concert

with the abominable beast,

arises from its secretive assembly

surveying the plains of Megiddo

preparing to do one last final battle

with the prophesied

prince of peace to come

 

Funeral pyres ablaze

across the hemisphere

causing much destruction

and waste to succumb

the hostile land,

where terror and fear

become a usual guest

to accompany them

during their trials

through the great tribulation

 

An overbearing terror

takes flight

into the obscured skies,

turning days into night

from the plumes

of smoke billowing

from its tombs below,

and filling the rivers and seas

from the blood of billions

of souls annihilated

 

The fires of the faithful

seek refuge in Petra,

witnessing its horrible climax

descending upon them

as a great earthquake

parts the land in two

 

Just then,

an unveiling white

brilliant light

appears in the sky,

culminating with an army

of heaven

following He

who shone

on a white horse

and crown

 

He is the foretold

ancient Messiah of days,

who was despised

and rejected,

and now comes

in great fury

and awesome glory

to judge the world

from the living

to the depths of hell

 

The Lord of heaven

descends upon

the earth, vanquishing

its evil subjects

who serve the dragon of old

into the lake of fire,

to save the remnant

of mankind

from its very brink

 

A new dawn is born

as the reign

of a thousand years

has begun

 

The earth is cultivated

once more,

as the roots of Eden

sprout to recreate

an eternal paradise

 

No more money,

no more tears, or death,

for the former things

have passed away,

and a new beginning

has now arrived
