THE MYSTERY OF INIQUITY

 

I had no need for worry

For the night was soft and sound

All creatures said goodnight

And fell into a sleep of peace

I did same with all

I too slept in the solemnity of peace

With the expectation of a great morning to do my trade

Indeed my sleep was blissful

But suddenly as though I was asleep

I yet was in myself all again

I could feel and know whatever that surrounded me

Yes! Everything in my room came alive

As though I never slept

Strangely my sleep was gone

But I could not awake

I was still, with my eyes closed

  

It was as though I was under a spell

Suddenly my mind was shut

And my eyes were opened wide

Yet I was still not awake

From nowhere came certain creatures

Creatures just like me

Men who looked like men

Their reign was awesomely terrible

As unto a nation, the universe was her subject

These men ruled everything without rules

Their law was lawlessness

Indeed their entire was a mystery unveiled

Really – a mystery of iniquity

Very terrified at their appearance

Every creature sort for hiding

But the nation had become one so small

  

These men were ruthless

They only fed on flesh of Homo sapiens

Mostly ate uncooked flesh

As for a woman, I could remember

Her child was half eaten

Yet the child did not die

There was nothing like death

Though the torture was awful

  

They molested anyone they met

They cared for no one

And no one cared for anyone

Oh! Such a nation that was

I had only one option for me

To run and run, and keep running

But the more I run the better I got nowhere

Everything was totally void

The universe was in hands of these creatures

Our universe had become so small

As small as a nation

Even a village, with all living and nonliving

In all my life I have not seen such evil

I have lived for over two millenniums

But my eyes have never beheld such iniquity

Even nature turned her back on all

  

She gave not, neither water nor food

Her rivers were dried

She had been transfigured into a wasteland

All her fruitful places had become desolate

Nothing good was available anymore

Starvation filled our bellies

Yet these other creatures beset us roundabout

They fed on us and enslaved us

What a grievous mischief this was?

Everything was against everyone

I saw it with my own eyes

Even some of our people started feeding on others

How terrible hunger and thirst are?

A lady, humble in all appearance grieved me

She squeezed the blood out of a lad

She used blood to quench her thirst

I feared for my wretched life

I knew if I was not eaten, my blood would be sucked

So I was in great dread of all

There was no good left anymore

A young lad of fourteen fed on someone

Yes. He fed on his only mother

The woman who had unaided cared for him

He had no mercy

  

I searched and lo there was no mercy left

As for animals I saw none

They were nowhere to be found

Everything everywhere was out of control

Nothing could be tamed any longer

The lifeless became alive

They all craved their independence

Even the stones, I could hear, yelling

Nothing was dead or inanimate

There was so much agony of the soul

None could bear it

I neither saw night or day

It was all iniquity

There was neither sleep nor slumber

In the skies stood the sun, moon and stars altogether

The skies above inspired threat and fear 

The sun was as though painted with blood

The moon as unto an eclipse

The stars were also blazing with fire

The clouds were darkened

Lightening and thunders were the routine

 A heavy rage of war did I hear from above

As though war was descending upon our universe

I was very scared to even look up

  

Then I saw one of the creatures’ faces

He was handsome and beautiful

He was ugly and hideous

He was innocent and reserved

He was guilty and furious

Words are insufficient to describe him

The look on his face was fearsome

At one time it was a male and another a female

How I resented his appearance

He came towards my direction

With his bare hands ready to mangle me

Suddenly my phone rung

I opened my eyes and lo I awoke

I looked the time and it was 1.37 am

This I saw was an event which lasted long

Like a decade without any nights
