Scourges of wars, Rumours of wars;
Earthquakes rumbling,
Kingdoms crumbling,
Tornadoes twisting towns into twizzlers….
Genocidal vanquishing!
Disposessed wanderingj…
Ruthless plundering!
Indigent langushing…
(Afflictions reign over inordinate suffering….)
Life spins faster, faster, faster:
Educating, re-locating;
Sick neglected, poor rejected –
All in quest of the disappearing dollar….
Oppulence inconvenienced by
Assisting the needy;
Sand-ropes of promises
From the arrogant and greedy ….
Torturous tragedies;
Crises,…calamities;…
Fire! Fire!! Flood and blood!
Loveless hearts infest the whole wide world….
Moral degradation,…
Psychic desensitization;…
Relativity rules (a.k.a.: lawlessness/licentiousness),…
Pandemic psychological pestilences….
All pre-natal pangs
Heralding the birth of
Revival’s Reformation and
Christ’s return to earth.
