Adam and Eve Painting

Oh, tranquility fleetingly rare Prescient serendipitous encounters Breathing deeply precious moments Brief respite from life’s chaos Grasping the sands of time While pacifist successes Slip carelessly through fingers Nothing of mortality is moral Balances off the rigged scales No balm left in gilead A deceitful game life Getting away with it Unhappy ruthless deceit Cheaters prospering ego Gnashing teeth forgetting Who it is they are Dying a second death Madmen descending Nebuchadnezzar Devoid of prides title An unaffordable luxury Seeing through true nature Uninhibited by labels Forgetting egotistical names Undaunted by puppet masters Casting shadows on their walls Deceiving materialists Having no hold on us Looking fervently at the sun A gilded age mansion A barren desert hovel I am whatever I am So blessed be peacemakers As crushing presses wine Into an overflowing cup Mother Earth drenched in The martyr’s red blood Birthing pains crescendoing Paying the piper’s price Devils dancing delightfully As the veil rips asunder Prophecy’s purpose unfolds Many yet to be until Everyone has come undone Bringing moderation to modernity Reaching fervently for heaven While striving for Utopia
