And Jesus said unto them, “See ye not all these things? Verily I say unto you, there shall not be left here one stone upon another that shall not be thrown down.”—Matthew 24:2
The sordid trappings of modernity
We may now take as bloody read,
And what’s always been unsayable
Must, it seems, at last be said.
But why, O Lord, should it fall to me
To reveal this final secret
To the ungrateful living dead?
The reason, the Abyss replied,
Is this: You’ve got no fucking cred!
They’ll never get the Word you spread.
That way we keep them in the dark
So they can shuffle off their fears,
Though for form's sake allowed some spark.
Revelation’s never meant to last.
Thus it’s long been in aeons past.
God wants to keep them dim, the dears!
