Antediluvian Forces

Antediluvian Forces

A Poem by Earl Schumacker
"

Forces are at your door before the flood

"

Antediluvian Forces


An anathema, a curse much worse

Long before the pope's decree

Everyone goes astray and stays that way

Antediluvian forces are hard at work

Born without army uniforms on

To never die

A quirk built into human nature survives

To restore order to its rightful place today

Enlightened by ancient light light

Don't ask why

No one can say Antediluvian

Without a smile

Praying for the good old days

Where God was on the other side

Of the flood, of blood, of love

Author's Note

Earl Schumacker
If you wish to insult your fiends, call them antediluvian. They might get the idea you are calling them old. They might be right. They certainly would be biblicaly correct if not ancient.
