The Woman and The Dragon

This week on September 23, for the first time ever, will be an alignment with the constellation's Virgo and Draco which is talked about in Revelation 12. Here is a poem inspired by that.


The Woman and The Dragon


The Woman

Who is this woman
sun at her head
moon at her feet
crowned with twelve stars?

A King has been in her womb
after forty-one weeks she will give birth
to a male child who will rule the nations
with an iron rod.

The Dragon

Red and fierce waits the one
with seven heads and ten horns
and seven crowns upon his heads
for the woman to deliver so that he may devour.

His powerful tail
sweeps away
a third of the stars
casting them to earth.

The Woman

When she gives birth her child is caught up to the throne.
Angry, the dragon sends out a flood to destroy her.
The wings of an eagle carry her away to a wilderness
where the ground opens up to swallow the waters.

The Dragon

The woman's protector engages the dragon and his forces in war.
Weak and no longer having a place the dragon is thrown down.
He becomes enraged and goes off
to make war with the rest of her children.

A voice cries from above:

Rejoice heavens, for the one who accuses
day and night has been thrown down.

Woe to you earth, for the dragon knows
his time is short.
