112 The Last Pope

112 The Last Pope

The Glory of the Olive

by a name of Peter

is due to come

will he walk Truth’s path

or create new realities

The Order of Benedictine

is upon us.

Shall Rome fall ?

Shall the gates be cast open

and knowledge

be given to the people ?

Oh Malachi

thou casts a shadow of fear

can we continue

to sleep with this

uncertain peace ?

the 7^th Candle awaits the lighting

and we shall see again

the Lion of our sweet Judah

rise up and roar

Temples shall fall

and the bells of the steeples

shall ring but for a while

before falling forever silent

but the song of the call

shall not go unsung

there is no rationing

that shall save thee,

not hedging of bets

for you are

or

you are not

the record of Life

has already been inscribed

with your name

or without

however

the quill and the inkwell

is still filled with the Blood

is still held

by the hands of your own

will you live

or embrace

that final traipse

and sleep

or awaken

and embrace

that which you have forsaken

that Divinity

with affinity

of who you are

and have always been

a Child becoming
