Unholy Thunderous Domination

Destroy thine own brother in abject apathy taking up arms 'midst conquering expectancy, invoking howls of contemptible thunder neath skies' transparency beyond trepidation, battles' plundering captures naught of stability nor intervention from otherworldly gods predisposed towards earthly universal unity, persecuting soil's divinity neath aggregate exploits incalculable hunger upon grounds' domination, tears were purged in the name of unholy ascendancy deliver us from susceptible evil men chanting war cries, congregated in humanity's blood spoils on fire hailing flared atomic detonations' nuclear nightmare Trumped midst castle's undeniably delusional rhetoric Ultimately ascertained, entities' faith shall resoundingly be diminished casting down divine dispensation bestowed pon the wrath of mankind

Sounds like Revelations, apocalyptic and I like it a lot Paloma. The problem is an "us versus them mentality" and the false belief there is not enough to go around...some men are greedy.

My PTSD from growing up in the cold war had been going away until most recently. It would be good to have leaders and followers who have empathy for the oppressed, the poor and the ignorant who can take over and create a very dangerous situation. When I hear them talk about the USA first, I think to myself, but we all breath the same air and live on the same planet. Greed is not good.
