Is time for opposing those who destroy, <br> but where are chosen guides, <br> who will astral spiritual leaders be? <br>Are they really absent, <br> or is it merely covetous blind <br> who cannot see? </div><div style="margin:10px 0">Incarnated in earth’s vibrations <br> living normal lives, <br> breathing, waiting, to purify and prepare.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Yet are prophets prepared for existence, <br> for oppressive struggles on physical plane? <br>Life for them will surely be, <br> inevitable, a requisite of necessity.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Will they open up earth eyes, <br> and open up ominous sky, <br> to let pale planet shine through? <br>And can they finally bring into harmony, <br> and visionary understanding, <br> our so-called brotherhood of man? </div><div style="margin:10px 0">Do solemn slowly <br> falling sands; signify; <br> an approaching end for man? <br>Or do omens foretell a great evolutionary <br> leap forward, with humanity; <br> poised within anew age? </div><div style="margin:10px 0">A rising again, an expanded <br>consciousness, a future state.</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br>Copyright © Terence George Craddock<br>Written in March 1982.
