RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: PROPHECY
Man of Sin
Voices of the ancients warned
There would rise among the people
A man of sin
He would claim to be the chosen
Above and beyond the law
His rise would be marked in red
Seven signs of the apocalypse
The scourge of pestilence
Hurricanes and thunder
A shaking of the earth
A sky of fire and dismal smoke
Winds of rage and horror
The heart of vengeance
Wars and rumors
Destruction and devastation
A pall cast over the earth
In the days of final reckoning
He will place himself above all others
Above the generals and ministers
Above the saints and sinners
Above the kings and emperors
Above the sun
Above the one
And he shall be revealed:
The man of Sin
