The Last Sentinel
I am a sentinel at watch
awaiting an epiphany
for he who comes on clouds
holds seven stars in his right,
the light of the night.
As kitschy lingering days fold,
nights unfold the untold
will I not ware? definitely I'll tear
as a thief he comes in the dark behold
eyes will see Him, even those of those
who scathed his ribs so will I on hold.
Frigid whirly winds writhe deep far though
through rough troughs of my curly wrinkles
beneath the depth of withered facials
born of the seed, purchased by the blood
a millennium along with the lamb I amble.
