Long after the world we know
Has been crippled from blood and tears,
A star will rise and shake the earth,
Heighten many fears.
A star from which no light is seen
Will split the moon in two.
Part will blaze in endless flames
Part will be flooded in bright liquid blue.
A game will be played with the people's mind
Two doors: one sweltering, one chilled.
A choice must be made in short time
The star may guide, but is it good-willed?
Take heed in your selection
Fire may be colder than one may think
A wrong decision, moment lost in hesitance
And in eternal misery, you will sink.

GoldenDawns Interpretation
Greetings Silvie. I shall interpret your prophecy for the world as I am GoldenDawn, interpreter and prophetess extraordinaire. Your prophecy means as follows...
The Star you speak of that will shake the Earth, well that refers to the gravitational pull of a passing solar system that comes too close to ours causing complete and utter mayhem splitting our moon in two and screwing up all the eco system and cycles on the planet. This will result in ladies going through cycles not every 28 days but every 6 hours, there will be autumn when its meant to be Tuesday only and snow will fall inside buildings.
We have to make a decision as to whether or not we should go with all this like wierd hippies on heroin or do we destroy said passing star with a nuclear explosion?

Thank you for your entry into my contest, your talent and hardwork are very much appreciated. I liked this poem, it had just the right amount of secrety and it even reminded me of this story I read, it had the same feel as the prophecy in that book, though I can't seem to recall the name of the book. Great work and good luck with the contest.
Your Host,
