The Witnesses Decree

One can hear the springs creaking on the old worn wagon as it slowly makes its way across the tired grass laid knoll. The wagon is creaking upon tired grass of several shades of green hue, then to brown and eventually what appears as a patch of chalky white.

The silhouetted bent older man sits upon the seat of the wagon looking more in darkness, then one could describe in light.

On the right side of the wagon seat, sticking up is a very weathered two-by-four (The plague upon this place is seven times seventy quadrupled and no longer shall be a cup mixed double) just long enough to be a bit above the man’s head; with a bent nail towards the top of the wood to hold the gentle swaying of an old dimly lit Kerosene lamp.

The wagon is being drawn by what appears as a too long traveled black matched horses, that not only has seen better days; but there gait is more of a plodding, than with long past the days of enthusiasm.

A short distance behind the man is the attempt at a clearing of some vast dark black menacing storm clouds and in more of a half circle center of these clouds the light of dawn is beginning to show its face.

In a far off distance, is a large city from where the man drudges along in his wagon; which is where an immense Romanesque style building of marble, with an overwhelming amount of steps that lead to the doorway. As one stands in witness at the bottom of these steps looking up, one can hear the wailing, to murmur chatter as a decree by Allah (Hashem) is laid within there grasp of those inside; as a death notice that causes a time ripple* to stretch forth unto the whole of that land.

The man in the wagon waits, for the ripple to overtake him; as the shadows of this place that once was and will be no more, which is equivalent to two fingers extinguishing the flame from a candle.

*Allah (Hashem) has created a Time Ripple Effect which is equivalent to extremely powerful ocean waves, that is occurring outside the earth within the universe itself and is pinpointed towards one particular place upon the earth and will eventually spread some outward to increase with momentum, if that one place does not walk out of the shadows.
