The revelation of the apocalypse
As portrayed in the bible
Depicts but a glimpse
Of what is in store.
Our pending annihilation will be
Matched in horror only by the
Final gruesome battle for the
Survival of the survivors.
Sweet Dreams!

Nice poem. Food for thought is a good thing.
Your response is appreciated, Nicholas.
Sweet dreams indeed - a terrifying thought - great poem though.
A bit tongue-in-cheek, or sick humor ... I'm not sure. Thanks for your response, Michael.
Good write, the horror of war must be stopped.
I agree, though it would be like putting the genie back in the bottle. Thanks for your reply, Goldie.
Good write. Let's hope and pray it will be frustrated. In the past it's gone wrong, in that things 'backfired' or something. I've not kept up-to-date with it much though.
I was about to post a poem including 'a time for everything'. It includes 'war' and a couple of other things - maybe Old Testament thinking? Yet it's not my poem for today.
Thank you, orchidee, for both replies. I look forward to seeing the poem you refer to!
There is an awful lot to worry about in this situation.
Just saw in the news that North Korea has backed down for now on their threat to Guam. We can back off on the worry a little, Thanks for reading and responding, pp.
This is the time when you try to have a restful mind but something keeps dripping there and won't let you rest. The thought. The bad thought.
Sorry if my poem caused you concern, malubotelho. Just speaking what is to my mind the obvious direction of our creation ... this world. See my comment to private poet above.
Oh yes! I got it. Thanks
Sweet Dreams, indeed! More like a nightmare, but a really well written one! Chapeau, Louis, dream on....
Just sayin. Thanks Fred.
Spine chilling!
A fascinating time to be alive, wouldn't you say?
Yes I agree!! 'we live in interesting times!'
Love it. I find the idea of Iminent death to be comforting, and blissful. Perfect note to sleep on.
Your reply is appreciated, George!
