In Babylon one must live up to the status quo,
and be enslaved by its economy and entertainment!
*Watch this!
Listen to that!
Buy this!
Sell that!
Own this!
Disown that!*
Only in Babylon!
I have been up and down the west coast of Babylon,
To its heartland, or midwest if you will,
And it is beautiful even majestic!
I have waved its flag, sported it along with my children,
and sand its songs!
For I am one of its citizens!
And yet...it is disconcerting.
There is an evil lurking.
The lingering scent of divinity was fabricated and found counterfeit!
The pride of it is imperious!
The self-glorification is overbearing!
And its materialistic needs are excessive!
Only in Babylon!
I abide near the west shores of Babylon,
Though my heart is fully committed to the Kingdom of Heaven,
property of a king not of this world.
