The Last Moments

The Last Moments

 

Armageddon calls the ravens home

as masonary falls from a cracked dome

The staircase of greed leads nowhere now

bodies hurtle downwards from buildings aloft

Stall holders without cash fall silent and crash

Grace is kept at bay as all cry mercy

abuse has run its course as custodians cower in shame

The exploited don white robes of patience and honour

the exploiters hasten to a suicide pact of despair

Explosions tilt the globe as magnetic north is no more

the mutations of contamination rise in just wrath

to reclaim their identity robbed by the eagle

Not one souls escapes retribution

as the trumpet´s fanfare resounds through all creation

The hour of reckoning is nigh, the cost is high

as the Kingdom is seen in

the sky

Petrifying! The first four lines (not only) are fantastic. Don't get 'stall holders'? Am as thick as a post!!!!
