Magical Panacea

“The one who overcomes shall inherit all things,
                and I will be his God, and he will be My son.
                But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable,
                murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers,
                idolaters, and all liars shall have their part
                to the lake which burns with fire and brimstone,
                which is the second death.”
                Revelation 21:7-8


Virus came like a sudden thunder.
Rich are using this golden chance
to attack, to destroy and plunder,
and the global plans to advance.

The concocted story was taken
as reality by the mass,
and the whole planet was shaken,
heading straight to an impasse.

By the sorceries, pharmakeia,
with a wishful thinking stitched,
by a magical panacea
people strangely are bewitched.

They welcome this remedy shoddy,
singing all propaganda hymns,
when the substance in their bodies
spreads a poison to the limbs.

“Alleluia!” naive are crying,
“We’ll be saved and healthy now!”,
they welcome media’s lying,
and to new regulations bow.

They forget there was a warning
that the Lord gave us in the past,
and I am in my soul mourning,
by the lack of discernment aghast.

Lord, have mercy on them, short-sighted,
rushing to the call of Baal,
by the spirit of darkness benighted,
by the spirit of the cabal.

Dominated by fear feelings,
they ignore Your forewarning word.
Give them wisdom and give them healing,
make them see and forgive them, Lord!
