Joe Maverick Poet Didactic

IN THE NAME OF THE LORD '

I have set my face against them says the Lord..'
Those who would rule my posessions.' Those
Malcontents in infamy.. World leaders? These are
Merely world feeders.' Bottom dwellers way below
My Throne..' Who has seen my power?? Stored in
The vaults of the ages.! Have you harnessed the wind?
Does light appear when you summon? Can you fashion
The chains of darkness.? Tell me how I embellish them?
For those that are held by them know it not.' Who among
You splinters the deep waters? By the sound of their voice!!
Can you recall the spirits of the dead.? I know them all by
Name.' As I know my servants names.' Names they do not
Yet know! Who sends the morning out.? Who calls night
To its post? Only I the eternal creator.! I am waiting for sin
To have its full measure; Then in an instant I will dissolve
All physical powers and spirits upon the earth.' And the
Giving out.' To each according to their works will be seen.!

There has always been evil on this earth, but it seems it is getting worse or maybe it is because they are just more people. Thanks for sharing this one with us and for dropping by my page.
