It Happened Before

Understand this, understanding matters! Wrap your mind around a spicy burrito sun flared thought Now take a bite ... see the fuego aurora bursts of light Elevating spiritual awareness fires up the furnace brimstone coals, and pumps up the prophetic bellows Knowledge of God is a wisdom bush not consumed by the carnal flame Carbon-based messengers speaking invisible truth, declare dark parables made plain Understanding that time moves back-and-forth like a passenger train And every weary time traveler knows when to presently rest and get strengthened by a warm repast The manna of a Melchizedek life is understanding this: What has happened in the future, will happen in the past once more What was known before the blocks of creation were set into the foundation of the void Is now shown in cornerstone visions of destruction: See every evil work cast into the boiling bottomless pit, where mad babble bubbles the gnashing noise — Volcanic eruption of viper voices spewing idolatrous vomit Understand this, salvation is all that matters The message delivered from the future, was received in the past before Children of the Son of Man, faith is the key Allowing those who believe to walk on the watery grave sea floor Understanding this: He who was nailed on the cross, is coming back once more Apocalypse now is even at the door — so understand this: In the mind of God, it has already happened before!

Powerful metaphors with a unique reference to the mind of God knowing all. You have a wonderful ability of symbolic expression in poetry.
