The SEAHORSES are Shadows in this Previous TIME of the FOUR HORSES

____________________________

The seahorse rears to oblivion...

When God created the worlds they were before then, without form

A void except in his own great eye which had already seen everything that was, is and will

The first thing he created I believe though the bible does not tell us so

Is children's crying

As this is still mirrored when children are born

Though no doubt all the animals weep for birth in their own particular way

But they must have someone human to notice it so that it be noted

The second things he created were two things he created simultaneously to frighten children

An old rocking horse that moves of its own accord and a discoloured doll which seems to move occasionally

The third thing he did was to throw Lucifer out of heaven so he would be waiting on earth to destroy everything people tried to do and to destroy what little happiness they scurry together

and he became Satan and waits here still for all of us

That is three things too

Lucifer to Satan

destroying to do

and to enjoy

The forth thing he did was to laugh

Once, Twice, Thrice and Forth

The fifth thing was to create

one Star, one animal, one fish, one bird, one human

These five bred together to create the entire moving, flying, spinning world and what is in it

The stars he sent to fly and lie in space

The animal he made to be our base nature and our state of nature and our innocence, and our memento mori on earth

the fish went to swim and drink the waters of the sea world

the bird flies, dies, and falls

the human lies, dies, destroys, creates, and seeks the stars that He sent up in space

The stars try and try and try to fly away from earth

But God has caught them in a large sling that holds them from falling too near or flying too far

The Devil creates black holes

Sucks them out of the visible universe

to create decorations:

bubbles and globes full of light and darkness in the ceiling sky of hell

Upside-down if you can see it standing up

Then God decides that it is time to blow the final trumpet and call all chickens home to roost in every way and meaning

God then blows final trumpet and withdraws the sling from the sky

The sling is made of wire and wood and warth and weth together

The roost begins

The stars are withdrawn from their heavenly holder

An attempt to rush away from the stinking world

Satan simultaneously tries to snatch all of them at once to all his infernal kingdom

Itself now doomed to his unknowledge

The stars are taken half by Satan

dragged though an ever increasing black dent in the night sky

The other half run towards the playides and alderbran

Oh stars of the evening

How swift you rush and roar away

Even Satan in his great power and great fury and great greed cannot stop them

So eager are they to dance and dim aways

But God knows all, sees all

And is prepared for all

He creates a huge net made of spit

and throws is further than the furthest star

The stars are caught on spit like the birds to a lying-covered branch

Damned. God lectures them with a whip

The spit shivers as the whip quivers over the stars

the voice slathers and lathers them with more of the same spit that is caught them

Forever and ever and ever.

The stars only pause and the stars only cross as to obey he who made them

The stars are given great scars with the whip for attempting to flee

The scars are blood causes; liquid proof of God's anger which was from them

The bubble stars are brought back by a string of spit which cuts through the web between the worlds

They too are slashed and thrashed

The stars are orderedby God to return to the sling or betorch his mercy

raining down like rain on the earth

And all of those that are unfortunate enough to have been born in and of it

The stars do not wish to go

They march sadly to their home

PraiseBe 2Allah

know that the life of this world is but amusement and diversion and adornment and boasting to one another and competition in increase of wealth and children - like the exemple of a rain whose "Resulting" plant growth pleases the tillers, then it dries and you see it turned yellow, then it becomes " scattered" debris, and in the hereafter is severe punishement and forgiveness from Allah and approval, and what is the worldly life except the enjoyement of delusion,race toward forgiveness from your lord and a garden whose width is like the width of heavens and earth, prepared for those who believed in allah and his messengers, that is the bounty of allah which he gives to whome he wills, and allah is the prossessor of great bounty
