APOCALYPTICAL POEM

Layers of the Apocalypse...
The island of Patmos, where stones and rocks are.
An island with blackest-black stones.
The air tears its own perspective,
It tears it under the onslaught of visions
Never seen before.
John, contemplating, is calm,
But in his soul – a catalog of moods.
Our apocalypse of today -
The collapse of Japan, unrest everywhere.
The commercial world, calling to me -
Buy, lift your spirits!
Layers of the Apocalypse
Are they decipherable or not?
Trust the skill of theologians
Who previously offered their thoughts,
Interpreting as best they could
The sum of all, the sum of complex symbols.
A path into perspective from anxiety -
How dared you to follow it?
Locusts – is it greed itself?
Multiplied by our pride?
For we failed to live with firmness.
Is it a pity for oneself?
The earth will be drawn into a black scroll,
And there will be no more time.
Who among the living has not been judged
By this grand cosmos?
For conscience is the main law,
Which we constantly violate.
We live separately – here it is,
And what about me? I live wickedly...
A gray-haired man with a belt
Sees something strange, doesnt know
What this means, flickering.
Is it just nonsense? A change of things, perhaps?
The city – the sum of everything:
Buildings, offices, banks and firms.
If filters are not set in the soul -
Then you have missed its essence.
The present is akin to
Times that once existed.
But understand the cyclical nature of periods!
You tried, but understood little.
John painted something,
Filled with anger and bile.
We mistook passions for pearls,
But they rotted in souls, festered...
I see black boats sailing.
I see angels – cast trumpets.
To die for the Savior is a feat.
And the seals burn, key ones.
And no one can break those seals,
Not yet, its not time for that.
People must become different -
That is their duty, a wise burden...

Это Тайная вечеря, мне она нр. больше всего! Леонардо долго искал лицо для изобр. Иуды (с права от Иисуса, седой)

Этот христианская легенда в принципе не может быть удовлетворительно иллюстрирована. Даже Леонардо не справился с задачей совершенно. Эта легенда не выдерживает проверки логикой совершенно и может удовлетворить только слепо верующего человека, которому нет никакого дела до правдоподобности. Леонардо не таков. Поэтому в данном случае он, не стремясь к правдоподобности (которая и не достижима видимо совсем), включил художника на 100%. Эта вещь есть чисто художественное произведение нив малейшей степени не отвечающая существу события, если оно вообще имело место.

О вечном задумайся странник...
