God’s wringing hands

tell the story

and the news is not good.

 

Headlines in the Heavenly Express

shock and dismay but he cannot be persuaded.

God’s will prevails in paradise. Amen.

 

“Decimated by greed

the jewel I created cannot survive

though I gave my son to save it,” says He

 

“I have called upon Lucifer,

gifted him all human form

to do with what he will.

 

Salvation was offered,

they turned their backs.

Heaven will not welcome them.

 

They destroyed their home

and seek to commit their sins

in the pristine heavens I bestowed.

 

Let them burn in hell with Lucifer

and in their suffering

repent without salvation.”
