About This Poem

Song of Jerusalem - Subtitled: 'What The Hell is Going On'

Oh Jerusalem
the bloody, killing vengeance
is a love song meant only for your ears.
Everyone wants to claim you
want's sure and secure ties
to your ancient, holy history.

Are they watching the days unfold?
I know the Christians are.
As December 21st, 2012
creeps in through calendar pages
with a grave sense of foreboding.
The world holds it's breath.

For the most part –
the days go on as usual.
We've heard this story before,
not the incessant bickering
but what the future holds in store.
By He, who tells us these things
before they come to pass,
so that we will know He is God
as in the beginning he foretold the last.

The world holds it's breath.
I am shaking in my boots.
What a time to be alive on Earth!

Were you there when New Jerusalem
came down in golden array,
when Zion announced it's glory
and it's sovereign reign?

A New World Order?
the Government of Earth?
The people will never go for that!

So, how does this end,
with only Christians populating the Earth?
That, is not the God I have known.

The God who loves all his children,
and Is Love ~ in perfection...?

Oh Jerusalem
do you hear the holy song?

Figure it out, World,
give thought, and get a clue,
you are no better than your neighbors,
you ~ practice war too.

Killing children,
drilling into a man's head...
You have disgusted me with your violence.

    Ever hear of seven stars? Seven lamp stands? Seven angels? What are they? It may not be bad where you Are now. But the tribulation is comming. And the rapture comes before it. I'm counting on Dec 21 I'm tired of this world. The real Christians will be leaving the fake ones. And after seven years of destruction the king will return to rule for a thousand years. And the government shall be on his shoulders.

    With the state OUR government is in it can't get fixed. It's not Obama or the republicans. It's powers, principles, and reigns. The forces that rule the world that we cannot see. It is said that it will come like a thief in the night. When no one expects it. Don't be one of those that don't believe it will ever come.

    Beautifully said, now all "repent, repent". For as the Lord said "all wicked will be burned as stubble"! Thanks for your comments and Happy thanksgiving. The line " what a time to be alive on the Earth" says a lot.

    Hello, Catie. ..."I enjoyed reading your poem this morning." LOL! : ) Oops! It's already evening! Im kidding. How are you? I really like this poem and you know what? I was thinking about writing something on this subject (Im passsionate about religion, faith, and its consequences). Hey, what do you mean with "until next time"?? It sounds like farewell.

    Catie, I like this a lot and could not agree more 'what the hell is going on'...David

    these people who think they're going to be raptured on december 21st, I'll be interested to hear their explanation when they wake up on december 22nd and find themselves still here lol the people will never accept a new world order? they ARE doing - on a daily basis! the human race is confined (or should that be coffined?) within a narrow box of perception...visit www.davidicke.com for some enlightening info on why the world is the way it is...

    and you are right, Charlotte, that is what this poem is about, the belief in the rapture, vs, a God who loves ALL his children.

    Perhaps you're right, charlotte, maybe it is indeed already happening, but it is happening behind their backs, because, knowingly, the people of earth, would not agree on one government. Just my opinion...hugs and Happy Thanksgiving! catie :)

    Very well written, but to some it goes on deaf ears. So many have died and will dye, it's a crying shame. Thank you for sharing. Hugs, Connie
