TORN TAPESTRY

 

Prevailing sneer

Scarred face

Sad human degeneracy

Modern fraud vernacular

Ignorant malign

Against all things decent

Dismal digression

Sloppy moral ethics

Mongrel dregs

Doped on daft pipedreams

Hell bent calamity

Vermin assassins

Devout demonic manes

Poised for incessant attack

Ceremonial scythe

To slit the callow throat

Of those who admonish

Martyrs shall stand firm

Share decisive gospel

In light of persecution

Authentic holy truth

Shall never be expunged

Tangled skein of flaxen thread

Dyed in human tears

Torn tapestry

Ode to mankind’s mastery

Tattered and frayed

Limp

Burgeoning winds of change

Apocalyptic details

Looming destiny

Our world

Slips slowly into madness

Symbolic preparation

For His exalted return

Jesus Christ

Lord of Lords

Summons the forgiven

In humble covenant

Without exception
