  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Father time will wake
Doom will come
The sky will fall
Nothing will work
History will be forgotten
Trees and mountains will burn
Nations will be conquered
The Empire of Man will colaspse
The Heavens will send their wrath on the Earth
The world will be engulfed in fire and water
Hades will be brought up apon the world
And the sky will open up
And the angels will flow down
And the demons of Hades will rise
All Christiandom will fight for their beliefs and their existance
And almost everything we love and cherish will be lost
In the war that is to come
For this is what is to happen
And we must stand strong
As we know what is to come
When time colapses

((I don't mean to sound all doom and gloom, but hay, its going to happen, though not literally as I said it))

I was thinking doom and gloom as I finished reading. From a writing standpoint, you may want to hint at more and let the readers mind fill in the cracks. You want to create writing that activates the readers mind to begin to imagine, think, and picture. Otherwise, you are writing a synopsis on what you believe will happen in the end.

Many people have very different beliefs than the one illustrated in your poetry ( I am one of them) and so to reach a more broad spectrum of readers, if you hint at enough, but not "preach" to them, than they will be able to fill in the cracks. Some readers would read the first three lines and say, I don't believe that and click away or stop reading. You're goal is to hook them in and let the rest of the poem tell the story.

*Sorry, I know you didn't ask for any advise and so dispose of it if you would like.
