I knelt in front of heavenly beings
creatures of unimaginable form
striking fear-terror deep into the hearts of men
destroying without mercy or pity
sending souls to that dark place
without light – devoid of love
to be eternally damned
outside of this dimension
where there is no tomorrow
just the constant now of torment
screaming tears wailing
overture to the lost…
Those who refused God’s hand of grace
wallowing in this world’s pit of sorrow-lies-falsehood…
who through their own self-righteousness-intellect
needed not a saviour…
Ridiculing the simple-hearted
who believed in salvation
through the cross…
that followed not political ideology
or utopian dreams
knowing their own hearts
were beyond cure…
Never judging or virtue signalling
impelled to show kindness to all…
to be hated by the masses
who despised their old-fashioned ways…
lunatics-fools-truth seekers…
spiritual lepers clothed in rags
exchanged for robes of righteousness
through the blood of the lamb
the son of God
who rides a pale horse
bringing death and judgement
to all nations…..
