dystopian nightmare
dystopian nightmare
so apposite
to opposites
of dreams i long to dream!
dialectical fanfare
a deficit
where counterfeits
create a new extreme
the apple they have eaten
by that old serpent beaten
can paradise be sweetened
when mankind goes east of eden?
the falling leaves of trees
destined to die
by shame’s outcry
barbed by the garden gate
land of calamities
all must comply
to modify
the penalty of fate
the soul that sins shall perish
(the curse of adam’s blemish)
thorns now the earth embellish
while in pain man’s seed replenish
the burden of the cross
of calvary
for you and me
one Man for all mankind
what sacrificial loss
pharaoh’s decree
brought misery
when death Christ’s soul confined
the earth reels from the fever
sparked by the wild deceiver
may every true believer
find escape to His Utopia
