The Leviathan (2)(Free Verse Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

The Leviathan (2)(Free Verse Sonnet)



The restless ocean did not expect him,
the winged dragon that did fall down into the water,
that did sink and became a part of the deeper darkness,
where he dreamt to above God have power,
where he rested and mended in a place darker than the night
but the might of the leviathan has just for a time been curtailed,
his control over his followers have never been suspended
where he does conspire, prepare and do keep waiting
on the great Judgement and Salvation Day of God that is coming,
where his black wings under the sea do still trembling vibrate
as he has been separated from God and His holy angels,
where he draws man and beast to him in their urges,
where to his subordinates he gives his wishes and commands
and do prepare to lead as many as he can to final annihilation.
