THE WAR HEXAD PART ONE: THE WAR OF HEAVEN TRILOGY MORNING STAR Morning star, oh Morning star caller of the sun, bringer of the day Pearl of the skies, how bright you are But even beauty may fall astray DRAGON'S BIRTH father look at the skies: the stars are dividing! Turn away! Son! From the lies from he who wants to be King DRAGON'S FALL oh Mother of our nation I saw it tumbling down! Screaming in frustration In anger at the Crown! PART TWO: THE WAR OF EARTH TRILOGY DRAGON'S VENGEANCE oh look out for him, Mother! from the heavens he's fallen claws ready to tear and smother for our blood he is roarin'! MALE CHILD I saw angel wings carrying Mother away I saw the dragon's claws ripping futilely I saw the raging river swallowed, held at bay I saw the beast-dragon turn on me! WAR AND STRUGGLE the dragon fought with flame and claw but Father thy hands saved thy children now the dragon's fraudulent frippery thaw their resolve, much to Your chagrin * Revelations 12:1-14:5.
