Poem -
~ Came A Stealthy Soothsayer ~
Arisen, through blackest purgatorial prayers
Arisen, from his very knees
By slow degrees
Came a stealthy soothsayer
And swell,
Did his notes of praise
Through darkest forecast
Or, as Leviticus
Swayed,
"Do not turn to necromancers.."
And yet,
Came,
A stealthy soothsayer
The moping owl
That did most deftly taint
A soul
And make it cry and pay
The devil's toll
Where, through long drawn
Curfews, and points
Of light,
His forecasts did come true
Taking those,
Whose narrow view,
Forever
Paved the way,
For doubt
And temptations aftermath,
From the garden
Where Adam
Did encounter
Such, a stealthy
Soothsayer...

Tony, this is a very ominous work, warning of the sooth sayer or false prophet. There are all kinds out there and I've encountered a few. But thanks to Creator, he helps me to discern the truth or ignore the lies and half-truths. Excellent write, brother.

CAN YOU SEE IT ? Can you, really ?
Taking it all, in to account. There is a mask, of mysterious origin, aiming to deceive the unprepared !! " Leave nothing to be desired ", my friend. Then, and only then, will you spread what matters, to those who give you their ear.
LEARN OF LIFE'S COMPLEX NATURE. You will stand taller. You, shall reap rewards, at a guess !!! :) :) :)
PROPERTIES OF MYSTICISM LAY NOT SO DORMANT. Answers are before you, if you dare to look !!! :)
THANKS. FOR......SHARING !! :) :)
"sayers" are plentiful
In a world dividedÂ
"sayers" seek to lead
All who are undecidedÂ
"sayers" will tempt
With dreams without end
"sayers" will coerce
Not as an enemy, but friend
"sayers" will chime
That they are not phony
"sayers" didn't count though
On our friend Tony ?
