The Carousel

The Carousel careens across the circus cavalier

As careless children cackle to conceal a common fear

Of the specter in the closet of consequence unclear

And the clown is checking off another consolation year.

The chorus chants the canticle of cannonades around

In the comfort of the canyons where the echo of the sound

Circumnavigates the churches and casinos of the town

And clouds my cup of coffee to a lighter shade of brown.

The cancellation caller in the center of the chain

Says, "Causes and conclusions are conditions of the pain,

And confusing circumstances leave me crying in the rain,

But I can cheat the Condor if I catch another ring,

And circle 'round the carousel again."

The Carousel

The Carousel careens across the circus cavalier

As careless children cackle to conceal a common fear

Of the specter in the closet of consequence unclear

And the clown is checking off another consolation year.

The chorus chants the canticle of cannonades around

In the comfort of the canyons where the echo of the sound

Circumnavigates the churches and casinos of the town

And clouds my cup of coffee to a lighter shade of brown.

The cancellation caller in the center of the chain

Says, "Causes and conclusions are conditions of the pain,

And confusing circumstances leave me crying in the rain,

But I can cheat the Condor if I catch another ring,

And circle 'round the carousel again."

And sad to say, so goes most of the world. Oldsailor29, if that 29 denotes your year of birth, you and I are only five years apart and can remember when I thought life was able to be figured out. For me that was before I knew there was an archenemy of which to beware. However I also didn't know I had a Savior promising me a bright future if I just would cling to Him as the carousel circled.

How are you viewing the world these days?

Blessings!

My birth year was 15 years later, in '44. Lots of people were born that year.

29 is a perfect score in Cribbage, which is rare. some people play the game all their lives and never see a perfect score. It is rarer than a hole-in-one in golf. I had a 29 score in cribbage. Not very many people can say that.

The world and everything in it belongs to God. God owns the matrix. Rebels try to break free of it, but none succeed. If anyone did succeed to break free of God's control, they would cease to exist, unless God intervened to keep them alive. And this is exactly what has happened. God is keeping sin alive for our benefit, and for the benefit of all creation.

The Luciferians of the world are conspiring to enslave or kill the rest of us. This will happen before the coming of Christ. It is the worldwide time of trouble. Each step toward the one world government takes us closer to it. I think it is our responsibility to work against this movement as much as we possibly can. Those who live through the time of trouble to see the coming of Christ, will be the survivalists who have managed to live off the power grid, hidden from the government, for a considerable length of time. They will be able to do this only because the Lord will be helping them. I don't expect to be one of those people, but one never knows. With the Lord's help, even I could live to see His coming in clouds of glory.

It seems to me that this is the way things are shaping up in our world. May the Lord help us, everyone.
