Christos

Christos

A Poem by Water Blakmon
"

Christian salvation

"

A rip in time

Two lovers in the garden

Blood of atonement

Shiloh captive in the known

Abel to cry

Casting Cain's seed dry

Divides and celestial clones

Giants reap riots

Christos cries

Baptize an ark that floats

Hopes in six hundred

Threescore and six

Ham and his

Shem and his

Japheth and his

Repopulate a fate

Gates open

42 generations and scoping

War of the worlds

Images of Hemorrhages

The crimson

The whole creation

Begs the bread of redemption

*

Harvest a baby's aching

Inhibition

The cry

I wonder if the second it's born...

Is the second it dies?

Utilize a man to speak

Dream a dream

Self image

Gold Head

Silver chest and arms

Brass stomach and thighs

Iron legs...

Iron clay toes

The stone the builder's rejected

Mountainous monument

The prophet's call

The writing on the wall

Dios es escribo

Come in the volume

Of his book

Crook kissed

Ripped in twain

A veil, spent three days

In jail

*

Broke camp

Reaped three keys from hell

Brought the blood

That posted bail

Spoke and Saul choked

Stroked Paul's eye's from the scales

Rose up twelve

Heaping heroes

He prevails

A generation fails

Seven years trouble

At his feet she weeped

Twelve crowns

Came down and fell

Alpha Omega

Baffle at the blasphemy

Openly made a show

 Of an enemy

Ripped time

Wrote yours and mine

Healed time

Gave rhyme to reason

Untwisted tangles

Tamed seasons

Gave bride and groom

Another reason

Two Lovers in the garden

She begged his pardon

She was held in his arms again

Covered

Twice died but...

Become one the Lover.
