"....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 }................ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ ".......Omnium Gatherum......."
