Title: Babylon
Post by: out_of_Zion on December 24, 2003, 03:47:25 PM
IT IS FINISHED

MYSTERY
BABYLON THE GREAT
THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES
AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF
THE EARTH


Gathering the foul broken remains
Of cracked-wide skulls, devoid of brains,
The piles of the wicked now lie
as full meals to the volture's eye.

The mighty city now defaced,
Mankind's "accomplishments" erased;
The bittersweet taste of the truth
Escaped the ones who ignored the proof;
So stooped in high philosophy,
Their teachings were but mimicry--
And ya, they find no place to hide,
A victim of their selfish pride.

In passing the words came too late;
The men lie now betrothed with hate,
Branded by their masked cold sin
Of being wicked from within.

The signs were present, simple, clear,
Yet these men lacked an innate fear,
Perception cast aside by pride,
And surely they shall say they tried...
The harlot beaten spoke no more,
And now lies naked, wretched whore.
