The World That Was


When I traveled the world from continent to continent
       seen all the fossils, high and low:
Animals and our ancient ancestors buried in muck and mud
       walked on glaciers, seen the ocean’s floor,
Been to the peaks of the Andes, and on Cape Horn
To the ends of the earth, North and South—
To me it becomes quite obvious, it is God’s testimony
       to man,  should he feel he’s alone!
On the other hand, should he not be feared or revered…
One who is able to destroy the earth and nearly all that
       is on it, with a twist of his finger with water and sand:
Once angered by the filth of man, has something coming!
Thus, he can surly destroy the earth and man and his
       soul, ONCE again.
Incasing all man, back within the sediments of earth
       and sand, once and for all, from whence he came from.
There awaits an even more terrible fate for man, of this
       present age, who refuse Him respect,
       who disregards His warnings from the Heavens:
What is eternal fire, what can be compared to it?
Of that day, the heavens will pass away— with a great
       roar, with intense heat, and the earth will be
Scorched, and melted, like a candle and burnt meat…
