The Immortal’s war

The Immortal’s war

A Poem by andrew mitchell

If man has
a soul
there will always
be war.
From the heavens above
coming directly to you,
this is Sky News.
The war between
immortals continues
as the souls of the righteous
and the Devine
clash with the souls
bent on evil.
Apparently, the evil
immortals were promised
forty virginal brides
upon arrival only
to find this to be
another empty promise -
how this rings true
like another politician’s pledge
of no returns.
Yes! As long as
man continues
to have a soul
there will be unrest
in the heavens tonight.
Will good souls
triumph over evil?
Who knows and
with limited space
there has to be
a War.
It’s how things
work around here
as long as Man
and Beast continue
to rule.
And now for the weather:
due to in house fighting above
climate change will
inherit the Earth.

You have lots of nutcases in many religions. Lots of religious adherents follow like sheep. They need to think, study, compare, go to the root of doctrines, contemplate, sift through, meditate, pray about things, weigh the outcomes...
Wise up sheep.

This is pretty timely if you ask me. Supposedly God destroyed the earth with a flood because man became evil, proud, and started wars. It's a good thing he doesn't still contemplate another flood. We'd be in big trouble.

Love the ending. Provoked a smirking chuckle. Man and beast eternally at war... And so ti will go until the universe ends.

Thank you Sir for reviewing and likewise for the smile.
This is good Andrew ... it speaks to the old truth "all it takes for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing"
Unfortunately, with the prevailing sentiment of modern society, truth is not necessary for evil to win out.

Evil exists and thrives and it becomes more difficult to get to the truth. The war moves on as it always has ...

A good write my friend
