MEGIDDO


Leper warriors
Vast pariah
Draw their poison blades
Impure
As evil is
Thundering advance
Horrid legions
Marching on Megiddo
Violence
The new deal
A way of life in the melting pot
Boiling cauldron
Reeks of forsaken dreams
Birds of prey
Eye the carnage with delight
Currency
Power
Oil reserves
The lesson begins
Stark halls of impunity
Richter scale
Abandoned in dismay
There shall be no escape
As destiny approaches
Appointed
In ancient passages
Shofars sacred blast
Angels gather for battle
In multitudes
No man can number
Havoc
Scriptural skirmish
Purification
Good versus evil
Have you decided your allegiance?


“A sound of battle is in the land and of great destruction”

Jeremiah 50:22
