A Villanelle, poetry form encouraged through dVerse.
God’s world in ruin, yet the sky still blue.
The current status well thought out;
Storm and counterfeit, that’s what we’ll do.
He watches from above, the perfect view
Man’s hellish plan; He laughs as they scheme.
God’s world in ruin, yet the sky still blue.
First, hush and block those who speak true
Kill their God, mute the good.
Storm and counterfeit, that’s what we’ll do.
God’s world in ruin, yet the sky still blue.
Black is now white, while white is black.
God smiles as His faithful carry through.
Work harder, conceal, quiet the few
Their voice must be stilled at any cost.
Storm and counterfeit, that’s what we’ll do.
We can’t stop now, but God who knew
Their game was finished before it began.
Sinking wrangling words — despair and spew
Storm and counterfeit, that’s what we’ll do.
Nice line: “God’s world in ruin, yet the sky still blue.”

A sweet ballad to faith, and a strong message throughout. You kind of lost me with the refrains and rhyme schemes, but your “modern” take on the form feels valid. After all, what we take from a form should enhance and invigorate our own style; smile.

It’s all about the Masonic agenda New World Order and how I perceive it will end.

What a great line – should we feel hope? Or despair? You’ve adapted the villanelle form very deftly here.
