Requiem For An Antecedent Prophecy
That prophecy awaiting forecasts' rhyme
it will be so, adversity's culled drive
incineration stalks with warlike pine
inauguration's trust, to resent live!
What covenant's assert, be it the state
of well to do, or slur, confirming's grit
as chosen, not impure, but truth's relate
the privacy of purpose, strength's remit!
Still beckoning as days become incur
and registries assumption ~ records, borrow
necessities compare, while peril's mirror
its plans precision, mind-sets muse with carol!
Disaster, is its measured rate apparel
when all recorded entries sensed its course
and yet the vanity, certain was arrow
while risk, protection, and restraint were source!
Prepare the unknown, God would save referral
all bridges uniform destructions lay
awaiting timely jurisdiction narrow
one day ~ again ~ no vacancy, relate!
While man seeks destiny, the odds now viral
surviving, stacking entities accord
the way is wrought, division is the herald
a wearing thin, negotiations ford.
