More From the Prophet
The Almighty said, “You have a gift – go and prophesy.”
Like celebrated prophets of long ago, I thought, “Oh, my!”
Messages came rapidly over the next few days
I wrote them in notebooks, sometimes in a daze.
Covering some serious topics, others seemed willy-nilly,
And, some came across to me as perfectly silly:
A retired elderly actor will star in a major blockbuster
Critics will pan it as a complete waste of time – lackluster!
A best-selling author whose bodice-busters were widely read
Will be discovered in a well-known hotel room cold and dead.
Everyone aboard a transcontinental flight to Europe will be okay
When a brave and competent pilot returns his plane to J. F. K.
A shocking revelation in a high profile sex-trafficking case
Will make it hard for a well-known, public figure to save face.
Two of the world’s wealthiest men will embark on a race
To see which of the two will be the first company in space.
