SEA OF GLASS

If it has a beginning, should it not have an ending?

Yes, I speak to you – did you not set the alarm of war?

I heard you told them of an inheritance to possess

Yet, after the war, there shall be a desolate mound

Cry!!! Cry!!! And, gird up with sack clothes

An informant has spilled your bean into my vineyard

Alien in their midst, drawing out a plan like one making traces on a block of woods 

He shapes it with chisels and planes it into human

After then, he cuts down a cedar; an already existing promise expecting 

to nourish it by the rain of wickedness. 

Carved image, crowed things, lovers of emptiness of nothing

Get off your high horse and get a job, any old job

Hock your gowns and scarves.

 

This delusion you slippery told yourself;

Smugly… I am number one, there is nobody but me

You were so confident in the comfort of your evil life

 Indeed, your expected rain descended;

In ruin, instead, catastrophe strikes like a hurricane from deep sea

All your great repertoire of enchantments, is there no 

any enchantments you have not tried yet?

You have been at this a long time – exhausted, trying out remedies with 

those evil astrologers and stargazers you called friends

How you set up a venison stew

You will be grasping at straws that are already in the fire

Surely, you did not hear – your sorry track record of fickle 

attachments rebels from the womb.

 

You have a history of ignoring me!

I told you of a steady grip where new angels stood;

Just like one with a sea of glass where the justified camped

Now, you will never hear flutes and trumpets of a mill stone again

I tell of a truth – about the sound of many waters loved as massed choirs

Let us celebrate as a new bride in marriage

Blessed are those invited to the marriage feast

You have been tested like silver in the furnace

 See that you do not do that again

Until a thousand years are up, there will be no more deception

Crystal bright trees planted on each side of the river

Brightness takes over lamplight to rule from age after age;

I remember now how I found this on record

Be warned!
