A Prophets Warning

-A Prophets Warning-
by Keaton Foster



A prophets warning
Follow me or fail
Like those brave few
Stand at my alter
As your world
The one so beloved
Crumbles at your feet
Trust my words
Even if they contradict
What’s happening
Find the good book
Crack yourself
Over the head with it
If there are any others
Those within proximity
Questioning your reason
Take that same book
The good one
And beat them to death
Thou shalt not kill
Horseshit
Murder those unlike you
Those unlike us
Send them to hell
A first class ticket
At the front of the ride
A direct departure
From this life
Right into the grave
Hold no shame
Feel no guilt
Just do as I say
I’m not God
Just a close facsimile
His image set askew
I once walked amongst
Now I hide in plain sight
I once stood in the light
Now I exist in the shadows
Belief and commitment
Are all that I require
Avail yourself to me
And my illogical ideas
And you will somehow
Truly be saved
Not from yourself
But from one
And each other
A prophets warning
A serious inquisition
Pay the price
Whatever I require
I’ll redeem your soul
Give you the sum
Of its intrinsic value
Then I’ll enslave you to ashes
Ask yourself and all else
Am I the darkness
Or am I the light
In between is where I reside
Just like you my sacred child
Your siblings must stay in line
Your kin must further abide
A prophets warning
Follow me of fail
As those brave few
Stand at my alter
As your world
The one so beloved
Crumbles at your feet
Trust my words
Even if they contradict
What’s happening
Believe in me
As I do all that I can
To believe in you least of all
Follow my words as truth
Even if every one is a lie
The son of the master
Is a fictitious character
A made up being
Meant to further an agenda
The one written in the good book
The same book that I command you
To use in a way set to violence
Do as I say and make others
Do as you and I wish
Make them see things
As our idea of truth...
