Verses of the Illuminati, Part II
Verses of the Illuminati, Part II
by Michael Doyle
Ancient maps reveal the Earth,
Evidencing without any mirth,
That flying machines traced our past,
And left evidence that confused us at last.
Troubling those who would willingly hear,
Unafraid to face the truth without fear.
Come quietly now to the mass revolution.
It's only just a part of our human evolution.
Psychological studies reveal us to be lazy,
But if we have nothing to do, we'll go crazy.
The darker side of every disagreement
Will overcome religion and our current governments.
There are messages to read from outer space,
And they show with clarity an outlined alien face.
Did our ancestors come with an alien authority?
Is this the truth of living in our fake democracy?
The visitors who came are found throughout history,
They are waiting for their time, silently biding in mystery.
All are present, though concealing powers of manipulation.
Is this a conspiracy or is there a clearer explanation?
Spinoff corporations are ruled by a minority,
And they hold the world within a single monopoly.
Banks and bankers are those who are quietly in control,
And not one of these is here for the good of our souls.
It's hanging over our heads like Damocles' Sword,
Is the power and reach of the Financial Stability Board.
International bankers are the masters yielding manipulation,
And only the sky gods know the truth of needed explanation.
It's all there in the trace of bloodlines
Hacked into our mental and media headlines.
Finances are held as they have been throughout history.
It is the theft of our future without any real mystery.
Freedom slips further and further away
As the risks of money become the crypto of today.
Destabilization comes with the Internet of Things,
And computer viruses attack with all that brings.
Near field communication costs our identity,
Disrupting as it will our individual internal integrity.
Bio-implants are the mark of the coming Beast
It is on this that our AI masters will feast.

Given Grace Grows the Church
Given Grace Grows the Church
by Michael Doyle
Jews and Gentiles - we are one family,
Worshipping our Lord in the sanctuary.
Each of us lives, and sometimes we sin.
We find comfort in having God as our friend.
Grace is the undeserved love we are given
As each of us comes to faith and is forgiven.
Repentant, we return to a rightful relationship
And find our place again in atoning worship.
Restraining our freedoms in terms of love,
We think of our family as loved from above.
Though legally we are allowed, sometimes we wouldn't.
It's not that we can't, but as believers, we shouldn't.
The strong should bear with others' weaknesses,
Not in pride, but in our god fearing meekness.
Ours is to support those around to be lifted to victory.
In doing so, we bring praise to our God's family.
The base of things is not just about sin,
But we hold each other in honor as we begin.
Side by side, we live this world in our stride,
And in love, while holding up our team without pride.
Church is a refuge for the walking wounded,
Providing a place to be allowed and included,
Accepting each other as servants to the promises made.
We walk the world boldly, no longer afraid.
Instead of the worst, let's try to believe the best,
In all that our team does to hopefully pass the test.
Above all things that we have ever learned
It is that trust given is God's ways discerned.
May it be that the practice of grace served
Will bring about more godly love than deserved.
Let's emphasize things that bring us redemption,
And keep God's path in our steady contemplation.
We are each children of God seeking to do right.
We need to believe this of each of us and hold on tight,
Believing the best of the church in living out grace,
So that in reaching for faith, it is peace we will embrace.
In living this trust among us, we throw out a rescue rope.
We live the benediction stressing our living hope.
Lessons learned in a world of brokenness and despair
Is the hope that God, through us, can somehow repair.
At the foot of the cross, Jesus prayed for all believers
That we not lose our way and fall before our deceivers.
But instead that we unify and as God's family become one
In the name of the Father, the Spirit, and the Son.

Verses of the Illuminati, Part I
Verses of the Illuminati, Part I
by Michael Doyle
Wondering if it's really worth speaking
To say that our world is at the point of breaking?
Artificial masters seem to take over life,
All in the promise of ending our daily strife.
Dreams of universal credit keep us giving,
Wondering about the point of modern living.
Everything is run by our intelligent machines
The world is getting taken over, if you know what I mean.
Artificial Intelligence is our new best friend,
Taken to regeneration, it will bring our end.
As we parade everything that we used to know,
Who is the master? It begins to show.
In increments, our freedom is surrendered for benefits
As we surrender all to the power of the government.
We cry out in desperate need of our cure,
Our edges are surrendered for impulses that are impure.
Disciplines are improved by the means of science
As humanity loses what passed for our conscience.
Big brother is quietly watching us a little too close
As our miracle dreams are just another likely overdose.
Power for its own sort of sense and it's own sake
Has gained the narrative that we cannot shake.
Power is not the means but has become the end.
Big Brother cannot pretend that he is our friend.
Tell me now, do you begin to understand?
The Illuminati is grabbing at command.
The Internet of Things is selfishly calling
As half awake, our freedoms are swiftly falling.
Meteors seen are nothing but debris
As esoteric branches struggle to keep free.
Secret societies fight for final control,
And none of these cares about our souls.
The evolution of us all ends in slavery
When mankind willingly gives up our liberty.
Intelligent life comes visiting with ancient artifacts,
All in a grand puzzle of questionable acts.
