He Which Testifieth These Things Saith, Surely I Come Quickly

The silver cord was severed, and
the golden bowl was broken pouring
plagues of hail and slag and ash
into the skies above our Babylon.

It is done,” the loud voice called
in thund'ring tone as trumpets
sounded fanfare for the iron-clad
Jerusalem descending from the sky:
streets of gold as though it were
transparent glass with cobblestone
and trolley-track showing through.

I heard the voice from heaven say,
Behold the tabernacle of God is with
men, and He will dwell with them—
and everything is meaningless.”
