Listen! The thunderhead of The Coming reins her fierce lightning steeds.
|
|||
|
The Prophecy is thine own. Take to heart what shall be, when nations' eyes
|
|||
|
shall turn toward Cow, a hundred million eyes fixed, a hundred million ears
|
|||
|
shrinking from the infernal Blast.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Moonlight's world shall fall to decay, putrid with the rot of complacency.
|
|||
|
A chosen few shall safeguard the Cow Song, harbor all that is eternal against
|
|||
|
the blight of relativism, the self-indulgence of apathetic humankind. It is
|
|||
|
the course of the Bovine that these few shall multiply, and their message
|
|||
|
shall take the form of a federation, a Cult. Cow shall be a living memory.
|
|||
|
From three shall be ten, from ten, hundreds. Here the Prophecy begins...
|
|||

|
Thrice sun's setting, then dawn. I see an eighth day, russet heat. It is
|
|||
|
the dawn of suburbia, mown fresh and green, black-cored and sinister. From
|
|||
|
this day night shall ever be vanquished. It is the Day of Cow. The Day of the
|
|||
|
Rebirth. Unspeakable visions I see, visions of color and sound, hoof beat and
|
|||
|
udder's fecund milk. Two of the Bovine Legion shall rule the eternal Day, two
|
|||
|
shall survive the death of Night. On that first dawn of the New Age, the
|
|||
|
birthday of the new order, Cow will come again.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
In the barren field of the barren age, the Old Age, in the field of
|
|||
|
corpses and skulls, I see a Prophet. He shall be versed in the saga of Cow,
|
|||
|
familiar in the Ways of Bovinia. And lo, the crimson field shudders beneath
|
|||
|
the taint of a thousand crumbling empires, kingdoms of corruption, and the
|
|||
|
barren field vomits steaming geysers of blood. In the midst of this maelstrom
|
|||
|
of death, the climax of centuries of despair, I see the Prophet raise his
|
|||
|
limber arms, and as if orchestrating Second Creation, the field is quieted, the
|
|||
|
skies churn slow and calm. Oh, unspeakable and ineffable! Oh, prophecy and
|
|||
|
legend, Earth has shed tears of blood, seas of blood for thee. Lo, the Prophet
|
|||
|
of the field drops to his knees, & behold, the fallow field is rent asunder.
|
|||
|
And from the awful rift emerges a deep, deep tenor, a staccato bellow which
|
|||
|
strikes deaf the unprepared ear. It is the Bellow of the Cow Reborn, the
|
|||
|
trumpet of victory which heralds in the New Age, the Age of the Bovine. This is
|
|||
|
the Legend, this is the Prophecy marvelous and momentous.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Emotion chokes words, and begs of them undue function. Yet have I
|
|||
|
endeavored to write what should remain unwritten, to prophesy that which is the
|
|||
|
stuff of nightmares. Humanity, beware! For now Cow sleeps, but dawn approaches. The Awakening is near.
