~The Second Coming ~ ~That Is Really Going To Be Something~
🐾WBY= Turning and turning in the widening gyre
🐾Tmm= Thing are comin down to the wire
WBY=The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
🐾Tmm= Not in the least, no sir, no sir
🐾WBY=Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
🐾Tmm= Like a pancake they fold
🐾WBY=Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
🐾Tmm= Tensions are so twisted tight and curled
🐾WBY=The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
🐾Tmm= How few who truly care
🐾WBY=The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
🐾Tmm= Wrong over right is crowned
WBY=The best lack all conviction, while the worst
🐾Tmm= They get to push their agenda first
🐾WBY=Are full of passionate intensity.
🐾Tmm= Towards the morbid there is an increased propensity
🐾WBY=Surely some revelation is at hand;
🐾Tmm= For the astute the writing can be seen in the sand
🐾WBY=Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
🐾Tmm= Where oh where will many land
🐾WBY=The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
🐾Tmm= Slow but sure, coming without a doubt
🐾WBY=When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
🐾Tmm= Makes it's appearance on a Sunday
🐾WBY=Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert
Tmm= Many signs have posted that serves to alert
🐾WBY=A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
🐾Tmm= Believe it, you most certainly can
🐾WBY=A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Tmm= Definitely to be considered the most powerful one
🐾WBY=Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
🐾Tmm= From disbelief, might we all desist
🐾WBY=Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
🐾Tmm= Time for the unfolding of truthful words
🐾WBY=The darkness drops again; but now I know
🐾Tmm= Things are not just an empty show
🐾WBY=That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Tmm= Now over, have taken what appears to be a gigantic leap
🐾WBY=Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
🐾Tmm= When seen in context, we become very, very, grateful
🐾WBY=And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
🐾Tmm= Whose light will spring forth overcoming darkness with a blast
🐾WBY=Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?
🐾Tmm= Now ending for some what could have been an eternity to groan & mourn
