A metaphore of biblical symbolism? Very powerful. I personally don't
believe war is declared by fate. I believe war-mongers (like Mohammed) who wanted power and control interpret biblical symbolism as such. True followers of Christ do not see God's word as such. True Christ followers believe we could evolve to heaven on earth if earth will allow us the time or if man would remove blindfolds and view life and others through God's eyes.
Sometimes it takes natural disasters for man to heed. I believe most biblical symbolism began in the old testament when visionaries (prophets) seen natural disasters and because they originally believed their 'gods' were responsible, even learning of one true God, they were not evolved enough to understand natural disasters scientifically and therefore assumed it was the wrath of God causing man's demise. We are beginning to evolve beyond this belief (as a whole). We haven't much control over this rock rolling in space but do have control over what we do with this space (& time) upon this rock.
There are other symbols I have been led (through prayer) to believe in also. Astronomers of old' had very little in the way of telescope and set the planets they could view through mapping, hence; the names of the systems, etc. Many astronomers (wise men) of biblical days had visions as well regarding the systems they had named; when virgo (the virgin sitting upon the chair) was crowned by the sun and the moon was at her feet; Jupiter, the Lion king (Leo's main star) crossed the virgin and she birthed the child king or the Messiah. (This was the occurrence in the sky (star of bethlehem) during the birth of Jesus of Nazareth).
This is just an example of the symbolism I have been learning through meditative prayer. The Lord is my shepherd. Jesus Christ brought the Good News....which negated much of the symbolism from the old testament. I'm sorry, I'm truly not preachy, just find it fascinating; science and astronomy and spirituality...the three go hand in hand in hand; mind, body & spirit.
But I certainly heard the roaring voices of the Imperial leaders in this one! Reminded me of Dick Dastardly, the evil landlord; "You must pay the rent!" "But I can't pay the rent."..You must pay the rent! (teasing, I enjoy your poetry very much)! Again....is imagery in voice....what is the term for 'hearing' a poem instead of visualizing it? This one roared!
