Apollyon

By zeusdawg

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Waiting He sits there While forever pacing Smiling at destruction Laughing at despair Gleeful at the extinction of mankind As old as time itself Fallen from the stars Right hand of evil itself Waiting He sits there For the day when he shall be set free And burn the villages He sees himself stomping Laughing Soon he will be released And death will come Until then he must remain Sitting there WaitingInspired by Revelations 9:11, which freaks me out now because of the "9:11" I made a change in the last two lines under advice from haikumonk (ty) I liked it better this way Written March 6th, 2002 © on Mar 06 2002 01:38 AM PST   0 • 1
