"....Omnium Gatherum...."
"If in the manner of men, I have fought with beast at Ephesus,
What advantage is it unto me? If the dead do not rise, let us eat
Drink and be merry, for tomorrow we shall die...." ~I Corinthians~

Throughout the vast regions
Outside of Dreamendon
Atop the parched soils of its land
Saturant forces at hand....
The fallen prince abaddon, their leader
From a far and distant sphere
Gathering soldiers of fortune, we ride
Veridicals of truth, our guide....
Veriorums of ancient scrolls
Written millineums ago
Containing the alpha of all wisdom
Upon the cyperus papyus perhaps
In search of this destroyer
The enemy, of all mankind!
Our purpose, our quest
To deliver their souls, back
From within their evil hands
Soldiers of fortune....
Vagabonds we are not
For we know our home, and
We know "Our King"
"The Messiah, 'Jesus Christ!'"
And so we ride....
Amid the shadows, of the valleys
And beyond the darkest, of the night
In pursuit of this empire
To consume it, with forevers "Light"
Not for one, not for some
But for all, for all, all, of "Life"
"....Omnium Gatherum...."
The light, of the omniscience of "Truth!"
Toward the panacea of pandaemonica
Beyond the Pandorae Fretum's
Celestial asylum....
Vicissitudes vicious vault
Of poisonous encroaching realities
The realities, of its pervading
Twistings of thought...."daimonikos"
Apollyons apathecaries
Reapers, far, far beyond....
Unto the palladium passages
Angelically guarded corridores, leading
To the sacrosanctic sapphoric spires
Of sapiencies mightily strong towers
"Towers"...."Rising"...."Majestical"
Amid the paradisiacal paragons of wonder
Dreamendons Beauties~
Surrounding their bejeweled fortress walls
"The Endless City"....
Gates made of single pristine pearls
Streets like glass, paved, in pure
Transparent gold...."Zion"
The Kingdom of The Great "I Am"
"Forever"...."Upon 'His' Throne!"
The beginning of wisdoms, mercies
...............{ Love }................
