Witness

I see hell,
I see fire,
I see more than desired.
I see truth, 
I see liars,
I see all we've inspired. 
I see planets,
I see cages,
I see war for all ages.
I see ants,
I see men,
I see it happen again.
I see hope,
As it falls,
But still captures us all.
We will brawl,
Till we crawl
Against the walls. 

I see heroes,
I see cynics,
I see all that they mimic.
I see angels,
I see saints,
I see lives that they taint.
I see Gods 
I see Devils,
I see misers as they revel.
I see living,
I see dead,
I see rot on God's good bread,

I see comets,
I see black holes 
And sentience on the threshold.
I see prescience 
To behold,
I see travesties to be told.
I see life
that is free, 
Just past eternity
I see plans,
I see lies,
I see all we despise,
I see jesus as he dies,
And is picked apart by flies.
I see god 
In his grave, 
I see none of us are safe.
