| Publisher Description: An excerpt, based on chapter 2 of Daniel // Through time the tunnel, / The stone flies, / A missile that crushes / Towers that reach the sky, / Like Ziggurats, / And vanity, / And greed, / And the imagination of men / Who see themselves / Everywhere, // And the lineage of lording / Collapses, / Like all the great places of space / And mind, // And so, the towers of great cities, / Of fortified walls, / Crumble into the dust / Or their progenitors. // The iron weakened by dissent; / The copper, inferior metal, yet / As far-reaching as Alexander; / The silver, not honoured as / God's hand upon his ?] unclean / City of Baals and other / Unclean masters, / But see, men and women and / Children, re-patriated to uproot / Thorns and 70-year-old rubble; / The gold, Nebuchadnezzar, / Instrument of demise, / The end of David's city, // The stone flies through time / The tunnel, / From the throne that won't / Die. |
