Exodus from Armageddon


Exodus 
                from Armageddon


                Darkness envelopes the slumbering night,

                with glittering stars far out of sight! 

                Dying trigs snap from woods out yonder,

                Chills of fright surging from all who ponder!


                Within range leaps death’s silent slaughter,

                devouring the flesh and bone of all who falter!

                Panic runs rampant with smell of death’s odor,

                rustling leaves dancing where all stood before!



                Among all remaining alive and still sane,

                comes bellowing cries of misery and pain!

                Shocked in horror by what had just happened,

                hordes of the living exodus from Armageddon!


                Reaching up toward the heavens above,

                travel the living in search of God’s love!

                Never ending the cycle of mankind’s falter,

                so goes the leap of death’s silent slaughter!


                Never will we be free from our own destruction?

                for mankind together knows not how to function!

                Thus is the leap of death’s silent slaughter in heaven,

                And also the end of exodus from Armageddon!
