End Times

People these days treat sin better than their very own kin,

we make an enemy of our friends.

Night is day and day is night, what was wrong,

Is now right, the truth is ugly and lies hold

Beauty, slavery is freedom, ignorance is smart, thinking

Is dangerous, mindlessness is safe, strength is a threat, being 

Weak is strong, we lose to win and win to lose, we’re just

Fools getting along to play cool, losing ourselves playing 

The new age rules, in a game with odds stacked against you,

Still asleep chasing the American dream that never came 

True. Wake up! The old days are now new, just the same ol’ tricks that fooled generations before you.

The chains are now mental, blinding your bondage is simple, making you see freedom as a symbol,

in the form of a missile, demolishing your soul for you to cripple, believing that chaos is civil, nothing is real,

it’s all artificial. These times must end, for the sake of humanity it’s critical.

DeVaughn,

The title of your poem immediately caught my eye as I believe the end times are being made manifest. The signs are amongst us. An abandonment of values, a resurgence of prejudice and a place where might is right are once more holding sway. Your poem is a clear statement of the end times borne out of scripture and the reality we sadly witness every day.

Thank you for this
Keith
