The sky screams,
'Filth and crudd
What god redeems
Dirt and mud?'
He screams and screams
There is a flood
A man-child dreams
The waters blood.
Life goes on evil sings
In holy songs
Of many things
Right is wrong
Confusion brings
A hate so strong
It takes on wings
Flies through the brain
Becomes un-nerved
Has no name
Can't be observed
Takes on fame
Not deserved.
Angels of light
The devil poses
Demons of night
With pointed noses
The owl takes flight
No man supposes
Black is white
And guns are roses.
There are no scenes
There is no cry
So it seems
They all lie
In childish dreams
And wonder why
No one screams
Except the sky.
Philosophical composition depicting an act of Nature, and the indifference of humankind; it flashes up some mytheological, (Mythological plus Theological.) ontologic and teleogical light, and this magnificent poem, "Guns and Roses" is delivered.
Thank You, Poet for sharing Your thoughts through Your exclusive poetic pen, style and wisdom.
These words feel like an enigmatic poetic account of the end times of this world. Dirt and mud perhaps refers to Nebuchadnezzar's dream, previewing humanity's worldly kingdoms from ancient times right to The Return Of Jesus Christ, even if the king's dream spoke of iron and clay. Events that are taking place today are depicted in the poem:
"And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay. And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken. And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay."
It portends the infinite kingdom that will follow the fourth kingdom.
I enjoyed reading your endeavour and ponder its meaning. Take care,
