Silence on Patmos

by LIJ Red

No jot or tittle would be lost He said
and He'd be back before they were all dead
and wicked beasts from depths came spreading dread.

So many centuries have come and gone
now we wonder why we're left all alone.

The cosmos spreads without an end in sight
the chaos of Bang then "Let there be light."
dark matter linked somehow to wrong and right?

Does Earth belong to Yahweh's chosen race
and nothing waits out there but crud and space?
