Welcome to The Baby wants It’s Bottle Poetry Inc. Podcast, a creative project by Martin Anton Smith a NZ based creative. In this episode I read a poem with some thoughts on the Book of Revelations – the ancient Christian Scripture which outlines the “End Times”. I have for the last six months or so have been casually studying this book. Perhaps I’ve been more interested in this book because one, it is damn exciting and well told story and two, as the final Book it is so important in tying everything together. As a note to the reader, you do not need to be a Christian to appreciate this, I write this mainly as it is a great instance of mythology – the story is so profound it has had huge impact. You can read and appreciate parts of different “Faith based texts” simply for the intriguing narrative content. I must also mention that many of faith believe we are in the times of Revelation.

When younger I of course I would have discounted 100% this “end Times” partially motivated by healthy dose of a childhood memories of badly taught Catholicism. Now older and wiser and cognizant of the fact we hardly know anything of the whole, I think that it could be possible – for if there is a creator – why wouldn’t they get annoyed their creation turned out underwhelming? After all don’t all artists destroy at least some works that fail? So in 2021 there’s so much stuff going haywire, the pandemic, false idols selling click funnels online, debasing of currency which simply increases inequality and feeds the coffers of those with assets and wild weather, earthquakes, Ufo’s being admitted to by the authorities and uprisings from the downtrodden (e.g. Yellowshirt’s in France, BLM in America) and continuing Israel vs Palestine violence to name a few.

Do these items point to Revelations End Times? Where deception is named as the key component? These are interesting questions indeed, and like the UFO’s acceptance in serious discussions, perhaps we are also getting there with the discourse that is Bible Prophecy. I think discussion of such influential texts, and what they mean, is good for society. For Societies aim has to be to understand human motivation, histories good and bad results and what we should strive for in our life’s journeys. In tackling how to live best, we would be silly to leave out study of theology of the world. This poem is just an instance of one persons willingness to do just that. this Poem was written in one go on the night of 29th May 2021, as the rain came down and the winds howled in the south island of New Zealand

“Revelations Thoughts” Poem by Martin A Smith

The Book Of Revelations

Tells of

The Destruction Of
1/3 of the People
1/3 of The Animals
1/3 Of the Oceans
A Great Earthquake
Many Plagues
Flaming Debris Falling From the Heavens
As Figs Falling in The Wind
A Massive Asteroid called “Wormwood”
Hints At AI/Robotic Surveillance Technology
And Too Many False Idols
An Anti-Christ Who Destroys
Almost All Christians
All those who Refuse
the Mark Of the Beast
He Reigns Terror Over Earth
With His Demonic Plan
He Goes from Strength To Strength
Until
God Comes And Ends it all
With A Single Breath
And The Enlists The Long Dead Chosen Few
To Reign Over A Reformed Earth
A Fresh New Earth
A Genuine Paradise
I Think It Wise
To Not Discount this Account
And It Is Wise To Investigate
With An Open Mind
For All We Already See
Would Never Ever Be Believed
If We Weren’t So Biased
By Existing Here Already

We Are Blinded So Easily

By What We Get Used Too

Unless We Understand

What’s Really Going On

And Remember

You Will Be Fiercely Attacked

When You Are Right About The Truth

Perhaps This Is The Mark Of The Beast

An Attack For Merely Saying The Truth?
