Apocalypse
Orwell saw it coming
The giant apparatus of the state
Taking control of the people
Surveying the lives
Of a fearful and compliant multitude.
In the Apocalypse it is written
That a beast shall rise up
Out of the sea
And be given power
Over all kindreds and tongues and nations,
That another beast shall come up
Out of the earth
And do great wonders
Making fire come down from heaven
On the earth in the sight of men
To deceive them that dwell on the earth,
All except those who keep
The commandments of God
And the faith of Jesus,
He who has an eye to see
Let him see
He who has an ear to hear
Let him hear
For the time is drawing near.
