Our Episode today is entitled The Judgment of the West and it is a prophetic message framed to show the why and how of the coming U.S. judgment. This message is also a spiritual assessment of the sensual nature of our country and how this nature causes the chaos that we increasingly see all around us.

The poem in this episode is entitled Prophesying. It was written in the fall of 2019 and is a scathing rebuke to our Western privileged Christian sensibilities. It is written in the long form prose style of culturally relevant and socially impactful message poetry. This type of poetry flourished as part of the social/political currents of change that washed over the United States in the middle of last century. Many of these poems became anthems for movements or rants against the status quo. A hallowed example of this type of poem is “For My People” by Margaret Walker.

Unlike many of the poems in our episodes this poem does not appear in my book of poetry titled, Christian Poems and Other Radical Explorations, available on Amazon. This poem is from my next book of poems to be published early 2021.
