Prophecy

And it shall come to pass--
A dominance of mighty arms 
will
Throw destructive stones at 
the
Sufferers that rebel.
Knees will plant in the earth
And pleas for mercy will be 
On many tongues.     

In the falling rain of brim 
stones

The mother land will weep
For innocent is in the 
Blood of the lying bodies,
For innocent are the hands
That wrote their Solidarity
On plaque-cards and took 
To the Street.     

In the rain of piercing 
ammunitions
  
She will weep a level of tears 
That can extinguish the Sun
Or defrost the moon that 
frozen 
Upon the wall of the sky.  

In the rain of falling tears and 
Oozing blood  

She will weep when she 
behold her 
Sheep been persecuted by 
their
Shepherd because they 
refused 
To continue eat the grass of 
Oppression. 
   
Guns out this morning Babylon 
coming again.
