Inspired by a song.
POSTCARDS...POST EVERYTHING
A little crab is born one day
From broken eggshells
He steps away.
Goes about his way. Not knowing...
9:41 pm 8/5/2026
HELL is coming!
And it carries vengeance on its back
Like lava burning its way down
a helpless monolith of mountain!
-----------------------------------
The wraith has marked you
and all of his
for harvest...
----------------------------------
The chaff kneel
spitting abject nothings...
If only to delay
the end of
today!
---------------------------------
The wheat stand proud
Belief colors their arrogance
in blind prayers
of salvation...
---------------------------------
Judas wields his sword of shame
His bag of 30 pieces swings in judgement at his hip
Causing him to stumble...
Not even a footing can he purchase with the filth of money!
---------------------------------
His rags of finest silver
Dark, dirty, soiled
Reflects his soul...
Now is his time!
---------------------------------
The Rapture has come
But none have risen to heaven...
The whole of humanity is on trial...
All have fallen short...but the children.
And they stand visited by the sins of their fathers!
---------------------------------
A promise kept of no more floods,
In its stead,
A trial by fire...
Hell was never on a different plane.
--------------------------------
A thousand Angels
with burning eyes
cold hands
and dead meat!
-------------------------------
The fantasies
were nothing,
to the real.
------------------------------
The payment has come due.
