Angel of the Future

High above the sleeping city
Angel presence in the sky
Warning of a baleful future
If his message we deny.

Caught up in our petty squabbles
Focused on our selfish ends
Ignorant of coming peril
Who has seen what now descends?

Who has seen the bigger picture
Looming future in the sky?
Portent of a gloomy future
If his message you deny.

Wake from slumber sleeping city
Lest disaster you befall
Don't ignore the sombre warning
Hear the angel's urgent call!
