mark of the beast

by Sigma

The Revelation of Jesus Christ

to His servant John;

shaped like a ziggurat. 

a three-tiered temple.

words make the brick

comprised of four walls 

and three courts.

in the third chamber

etched into the walls 

of the apex, 

in His tabernacle,

is the law of Judgment.

the mark in the head or hands

worships the beastly nature of man

consuming his own genus

the seal of God is inoculation

the unpardonable sin

is to reject the Holy Spirit.

everyone hears of the mark

and says its about Nero, 

because of consuming fires 

and violins.

which is a tragic parody

of its origin.

The evolved mark of cain;

an amalgam of man

and unholy spirits to

rule the disobedient.

the amount of gold given 

yearly to Solomon,

666 talents

tempting his heart,

despite his wise judgement,

to stray into paths of greed.

whether through money 

or faith, it represents

a massive infection,

a possessive state.

posessive of men 

women,

earth, 

property, 

production, 

the creations of people, 

people themselves, 

time—everything is reduced 

to the status

of objects at its disposal.

a sigil of the infernal trinity

manifested in belief to the

systems of

the seven headed dragon

the false prophet

and conqueror beast

Christians are 

superstitious,

they really needn't be.

fear is what feeds

all these entities.

the problem always comes

down to stuff.

what happens

when the whole earth

starts to rot?!

in the land of oppression

money is the measure of all things and profit the primary goal

the news cycle 

stokes fear to 

sell products

Social media harvests 

our data by showing us

our desires

The screen 

abyss.

vide noir.

bottomless pit.

teeming with all manner 

of half living things

consuming their

own nonsense.

distorted

spiritual forms

specters eyes 

in the mist.

they are undoing 

themselves with every

breath they take.

and the breath of life

always escapes,

leaving the phenom

of the human

a ragged heap

of dust.
