The dawn of a new King
Cloaked in subterfuge
The Trumpet now rings
Letter in the Queen’s chest
Remain unseen
Promises of a new day
Sheep march in tow
Deception of power in our hands
Wretched promise of how it shall change
They stood
Divided
But they stood for nothing
Stone cast
Crest remains unchanged
Ideology of lies
Cast from Serpent’s Tongue
Honor and Integrity lay dead
Slain by self serving capitalism
Everyone’s to blame.

Hope you have been well.

This one is also very good! I wish my mind could spin sentences like “Letter in the Queen’s chest Remain unseen”

Thank you Kate. I watched a special on Nostradamus and the election over the weekend. The passage you referenced and another (noted below) were inspired by ideas from Nostradamus. I really was intrigued by his style of writing as I found it similar to my own as it was full of symbolism and metaphor. I attempted to write this passage in a manner similar to his style.
“The Trumpet now rings
Letter in the Queen’s chest
Remain unseen”
Here they are from his writings:
“Letters are found in the queen’s chests, no signature and no name of the author. The ruse will conceal the offers; so that they do not know who the lover is. – Century VIII, Quatrain 23”
The Quatrain – Century 1, 57
“The trumpet shakes with great discord: An agreement broken: lifting the face to heaven: the bloody mouth will swim with blood; the face anointed with milk and honey lies on the ground.”
