End Times

Simply put this competition is inspired by my own thoughts on watching current events unravel in the world and seem as if to point to biblical prophecy in regards to the idea of the apocalypse. Now you don’t have to agree with my religious beliefs to chime in on the topic, you can simply choose to write about the idea of the end of the world. Personally I’ve been torn in a place of anxiety to some degree, to be absolutely candid. My wife and I are working towards getting a place of our own and trying to pay off debt along with big picture dreams I desire to fulfill and certain life experiences I long for. However tomorrow is promised to no one and unfulfilled desire or unfinished business won’t stay the hand of things that exist and happen beyond our control. How do you make peace with this reality and accept the concept of the possibility of disappointed hopes and still make the most of perhaps less than desirable circumstances in life? I know there’s a lot to think about and consider in the way you may relate to the general idea. In essence time is short whether it is world wide expiration or personal conclusions. Be vulnerable, open up about what you long to achieve before the world ends or how the frailty of life may humble or even frighten you. One week. Convey your heart but don’t drone on, not going to specify a limit in lines or words. One entry per poet.

Good stuff so far, I’m truly intrigued by each one’s unique and individual take on the subject matter, thanks for sharing!

Thank you for joining, while I may differ in my views I respect everyone’s position and enjoy reading the clever ways people put their perspective into words Keep em coming!

Apocalypse

Interesting how the end of times
Always being prophesied
Constant fear mongering rhymes
Where nefarious control thrives
And spiritual freedom dies
Whilst inner being cries, out

Out of body
Out of spirit and soul
Out of gas
Out of energy, paid the toll

If only,

We could know
From where the lies grow
In and out of decades we go
Blindfolded by those
Gagged and dragged by our throats
Told we need to go kill the trolls
That threaten our way of old

If by chance,

We could see the stories past down
Are intended to make us bow
To the all-seeing Enlil crown
Incepted in Kemetic town
Bless your food to Amun Ra
Deface the statues noise and jaw
For he is a jealous God

Then it will happen,

When the lies are finally seen
Slowly, together you and me
Him and her and them and we
Break the lies of diversity
Denominations make us weak
Easy to fool and easy to beat
Divided hateful colorful sheep

Look closer,

Consciousness vibration of love
Is the only way to adjust
Higher frequencies through living hugs
God coursing through our blood
In ever quantum essence sung
Left is right from down above
When we see that we are the one
Dot dot dot… ascension.
