The Cycle

False leaders mind bleeders and blood feeders.

The birth from the balance of negative and positive energy made synergy Godly.

The era of not, begins with a bang. Creation was new to the almighty hand.

The first era was engulfed in fire, all creatures high and low a comet would expire.

The second era lives in myth. Secrets slowly will rise from the mysterious abyss.

The third era was swallowed by the sea. All energy was absorbed tragically.

The fourth era slowly comes to an end. Too much chaos… Let us not pretend.

 

The red star will be rising. And the masses will open up their eyes then

The planets will change, even re-arrange. Life will truly be chaotic and strange.

The earth will shift by Thirty Three degrees. Mankind will then fall to its knees.

The false leaders will run and hide. All then realize we've been hypnotized.

 

The sky in flames will burn the pure and impure… Those surviving must endure.

The souls of many more will be lost, under dark clouds and layers of frost.

The fifth era soon begins. Within “the cycle,” life continues to spin.

 

The gods will once again return with pages of guidance, in hope that we finally learn.

The end of what's known, the beginning of not. Life then lives in the seed of a drop.

 

The end, once again becomes the beginning or rebirth.

So alluring are the words. I love the way the piece is formatted and the differing symbols in the lines. Then again I often read too far into things. I am one who will not pick apart grammar or spelling. I rarely do more than let you see your words through my own thoughts and maybe choose a part of lines that seem to speak to me. With that said, the length was perfect. Too much more would have ruined this, I believe. I think it is the way this can be interpreted keeps me mystified and begs me for a re-read at another time to see what more I can pull away from it. As if you created a riddle, I will ponder this more.

I really like it a whole heck of a lot. I am sick and tired of continuous doom and gloom and want a change of world attitude, badly.

"The gods will return and we will learn. In flames the sky will burn, we must be firm.
The end of what's known, the beginning of not. Life then lives in the seed of a drop."

Perhaps, the Mayan longcount calandar would interest you if you have not already found it. It forecasts a time of dramatic change and reawakening in the very near future. Thank Allah! The world has just been dragging me down as of late.

Thanks for sharing. I look forward to reading more of your work.
