Lucifer Wages Rebellion Wars: Rules A Mud World Poem by Terence George Craddock (Spectral Images and Images Of Light)

a world of historical mysteries
a world of hidden mysteries
a world of political mysteries

a world of conspiracy fact

never in my lifetime
could I ever truthfully say
the land was without war

many wars exist continually
somewhere in various locations
shifting across chess board earth

symbolically in lost Eden
in a state of lost paradise
in a state of bodily perfection

in a measure of favoured land
in a measure of favoured time
chosen land existed without war

before Adam and Eve were expelled
before the land before them was cursed
in their expelled wanderings into cursed world

before this Lucifer had already been expelled
before this Lucifer was within lunar orbit bound
Lucifer waging rebellion wars rules a mud world

raging like a roaring lion seeking souls to bind

death is individual
death is soul specific
death claims communities nations

wages of sin are death?
death claims all sinners?
death claims all earth born souls?

yet symbolically
what will the death
of the globe be?

a revelation of pestilence, hunger, famine?
as under global warming storms our crops erode?
death fire hunger famine signs of Lucifer’s rebellion war?

contrast is the blessing
of innocence fallen curse of greed
as resources are coveted by war

diplomacy by other means?
diplomacy by might is right means?
diplomacy by bully in sand pit playgrounds?

life is a world poem
posing many questions
in language reminding of the psalms?

milk and honey of peace
destruction of civilizations
devoted to conquest

by dominance and war?

the meek marked in lambs’ blood
shall resurrection inherit the earth
beasts marked earn hellfire damnation
