shattered torn asunder in the maelstrom the churning of colliding seas how we were tsunamis cast from foreign worlds towering o'er star-crossed shores devouring civilizations those were my dreams
and there with light eclipsing the sun were angels whilst God commanded who should be saved and who would meet their end by the maws of the surging grave the tides if death the vengeance we partook o'er evil to sap the fires of the cannibals' cauldrons of the wicked witches' works of the devil's deed scouring the lands of innocence tilling world for harvests of souls God warred with fury with wrath untold with heaven's war cries raging, bold I saw the towers fall as dominoes shrieks of villainy soups of human flesh spilled, feasts ruined in droves and I ne'er wept so poorly ne'er kissed the ground so humbly watching the world overturned in its savagery by change so indomitable by goodness so gracious
but I had as all children do given up my dreams of being heroic of being a champion for justice was God's alone
I gave up my visions of power unassailable of justice that trounces reprisal of vengeance beyond sin, I gave it all up to God to a victor who is more than a conqueror to a being who is love incarnate whose surrender is destruction loosed upon the wicked whose mercy touches only those who art cleansed of their murderous hearts and their chaotic whims
I gave up my power to the redeemer of all who art redeemed and to the devils I say, woe betide those who consort with the fallen one whose days shall no longer be numbered when the gates of damnation close in upon him and open again no longer...
My dreams of salvation from the hell we are making of our worlds and our lives...
