angels falling

[rosschandler]

Shooting down bound in light

 

Angels falling left and right

 

Hurling thru the star swept night

 

Unfurling all their golden light

 

People point and mothers cry

 

Grab their children, run inside

 

Showers pouring Seraphim

 

And all the Thrones of Elohim

 

Holding hands with Cherubim

 

Singing all the while on fire

 

Dripping love they do perspire

 

Calling out this cosmic choir

 

To every shining child sired

 

By the Lord and loving Sky

 

They come to cleanse and putrefy

 

All those soulless in denial

 

Yet the faithful need no trial

 

Those who chose to quench their thirst

 

With the blood of Jesus first

 

But those who chose just to lust

 

Fearing nothing till they must

 

One by one do watch them run

 

To any angel they see come

 

Lucifer is on the hunt

 

In the distance is a grunt

 

As it echoes from the legions

 

Of hellish minions whose allegiance

 

Is to any form of pain

 

Hurt, disgust or disdain

 

That has in it no means or end

 

No suffrage for the poor of men

 

No return or dividend

 

Then at last the battle cry,

 

“Who is like God!” heard from high

 

To recants of, “Fallen…Rise!”

 

Which these seething beasts do call

 

As they from crack and crevice crawl

 

Screaming, cursing each and all

 

Michael and his army swarm

 

Take the pure of heart and form

 

To that chariot they’ll go

 

The one Ezekiel saw glow

 

Meanwhile Michael makes a round

 

Redeeming all the lost he found

 

One by one they will ascend

 

If to him they do amend

 

Genuflect and close their eyes

 

Accept the lamb and lord then rise

 

And Lucifer, well, he does laugh

 

And continues his blood bath

 

Angered, vowing all his wrath

 

Snatching bodies without soul

 

Filling them with sin and cold

 

And the hatred Hell does hold

 

They will grow to demons now

 

Join the legions of the proud

 

Denying Michael’s band of brothers

 

Seeking to destroy all lovers

 

But the humble who denounce

 

Pound for pound and ounce for ounce

 

The skin and bones they were dealt

 

Fast and furious will melt

 

And from the ash for Peter’s sake

 

They will rise up to his gate

 

Besides the others where they’ll wait

 

As the war of wars begins

 

Until the war of wars, it ends

 

Surely that in faith they know

 

Heaven will defeat this foe

 

But the battle still is waged

 

For Lucifer is still engaged

 

Thus the lust of Lilith caged

 

Is unleashed for she’s enraged

 

A bleeding Valkryie in flight

 

Talons dripping bloody night

 

As she does swoop and pierce

 

Proving that her will is fierce

 

Stabbing cherubs in the heart

 

Yet, they are but stars that spark

 

Woman turned pure demoness

 

Spurning Adam’s one request

 

To serve beneath him during sex

 

Lilith to this mist did flee

 

Children vowing to destroy

 

Infants, every girl and boy

 

Thus God did send his own envoy

 

Semangelof with Sansenoy

 

And Senoy help to save each boy

 

Save each girl; stop her disease

 

eight and twenty days respectively

 

Lilith vowed to dominate

 

Claiming she controlled their fate

 

This cherubic triumvirate

 

Came with words and amulets

 

And once again the come for her

 

Heeding Michaels call and word

 

The underworld then does hurl

 

Straight from Hades just a girl

 

Persephone, Queen of the Dead

 

Maiden swineherd who she fed

 

Pomegranate seeds and figs

 

To all her rabid, frothing pigs

 

Millions upon millions more

 

Of these swine to join the Whore

 

Sniveling and bearing wings

 

Each of these chosen cloven things

 

Savage and relentlessly

 

The ravage anything they see

 

While she in linen sings a song

 

Unbridled hair so dark and long

 

Like a siren of disease

 

Reaches out her hand of seeds

 

Offering eternity

 

To all the dominances

 

Principles, men and wenches

 

Those who stained from love refrained

 

To them she offers without shame

 

Immortality and might

 

Now Gabriel does join the fight

 

Strength of God and grace above

 

He does unleash a single dove

 

To say the least she is but Love

 

All those staring in the sky

 

Watch the loving dove then cry

 

Eden weeps along as well

 

And drenches all appalling Hell

 

Heathens, succubi and specters

 

Incubi, non-genuflectors

 

Every devil with their scepters

 

Drown as riverbanks do spill

 

Levees break and oceans fill

 

Boiling Hell begins to chill

 

Lakes, ponds and little creeks

 

Overflow when Gabriel speaks

 

Lilith and her concubines

 

With distorted, twisted spines

 

Mangled faces, heaving breasts

 

Crooked fangs and heartless chests

 

Rotten, rank and reeking breath

 

Tongues that taste like wasted death

 

Serpents as they slowly slither

 

Beg hither all their prey to whither

 

No longer can he stand to look

 

The Light of God puts down his book

 

Points his flaming sword at Hell

 

Now prepared comes Uriel

 

The Light of God shining bright

 

Come to fight the God of Light

 

The very mighty prince of presence

 

Of the seven he is repentance

 

Pitiless as any minion

 

In the devils damned dominion

 

Metatron to some he’s known

 

Enoch the almighty Throne

 

Handing out to all mankind

 

The amulets agreed to bind

 

Carved by the triumvirate

 

In charge of medicine and gifts

 

Lucifer is not amused

 

Beginning to become confused

 

Time for Beezlbub who cries

 

Lord of maggots and their flies

 

Now in charge is Azazel

 

Satans fallen kin from Hell

 

They will eat the rotten meat

 

Left behind after defeat

 

The Kracken and Leviathon

 

Also now are called upon

 

From the ocean rising up

 

In devotion these two erupt

 

Pain unleashed and heaved to earth

 

The monster and the serpent work

 

Dragging all who still remain

 

Into the depths from which they came

 

Laughed the unchained Azazel

 

Who once was bound to Dudael

 

Now comes again winged Raphael

 

Per the order God once gave

 

Cometh final judgment day

 

Into the fire shall be cast for good

 

Azazel and all who would

 

Pass on the chance if they should

 

To enter Eden’s Paradise

 

Join these winged angel knights

 

And thus the cardinal winds did win

 

Satan to his knees avenged

This is very impressive, Ross. I've read it through once already and will surely read it again. It's very epic-like, like one of the Milton or Dante classics. I recognized a lot of it (probably 50%) as coming from Revelations, but there was a lot that was unfamiliar (in the second half), too. Even so, those unfamiliar parts made it even more interesting. I am curious ... How long did it take to compose this? Was it all one shot, or did you do some, put it down, and come back to it?

thank you. i wrote this all down at once about two years ago. took several hours. i wanted to depict Judgement Day. it is a sort of midrash, qabalistically speaking, telling the backstory of the prophecies. It's a post rapture esque sequence of events. the four archangels all have their role. michael is to assist Jesus as the judging angel. raphael is to unchain azazel, the watcher angel who fell with Semyaza and was bound to chains beneathe the desert in Dudael until Judgement Day. Gabriel drowns hell with the tears of Eden weeping. Uriel is the avenging angel. Books like Sefer Raziel and the Book of Enoch, the Book of Adam and Eve were my inspiration.
