The Coming Kingdom
And the rain of terror shall churn out
Of the deepest part of earth
Accompanied with terrible roar
Spreading a universal famine
On this desolate street of Enwuncho
Awaiting the coming kingdom
And the old serpent shall emerge from Eden
Swindling his cliques
Dissipating their time
Filling the world with
Painful pleasure
A decade of horrendous pains
…And when all these is fulfilled
Earth will be no more
The flying eagle
Shall dispatch the vials of odour
Conquering to conquer
r
For how long
Will the remains
Worship the beast of many eyes?
On the throne of jasper and sardine
With a golden jagged rapier of vengeance
Inflicting the earth with endless pestilences
Tthe merchant harlot of the earth
Shall perish with the queen of Babylon
And even the scarlet women too
For daring the blood of saints and the prophets
And the silent earth
Shall sing the strange song of the Syrian’s soldiers
Wreaked with chronic yaws
To this
The mentor of the universe
Shall pour out the vials of wrath
Setting the blind beasts on errand
In search of blood
Surely the revelation shall fulfilled
When the slumbering saints shall rise
While the unjust shall savour the flames of hell
For thy kingdom is come
