That's Israel and the Temple Mount.

What else about the Mount? "The owl takes his roost on broken walls".
The Jews rebuild the Temple Mount.
To: Aquamarine
"The owl takes his roost on broken walls". The Jews rebuild the Temple Mount.
Nope. Maybe try to figure out the other birds first.
The owl's gonna be tricky... different city altogether.
To: Sabertooth
Its blackened boughs bescrawled by dirty talons. Palestinians, graffiti-covered walls of the temple mount...the olive tree in enemy territory, scorched, but standing,
The hour befalls our moments lacking count
Soon...the Kingdom without end...
A predawn pall of dark and light imbalanced. But first, all nations rise up (darkness) against Israel (light)...
Close?
Dang, you made me cry, Sabertooth.
Thank you for sharing such a gift.
To: Sabertooth
THE HIDDEN SUN
Dark wings cross the sky
Masters call to ancient fowl
- Roll Jordan roll by...
To: Sabertooth
Hi Saber, this is beautiful. Thank you.
To: Ragtime Cowgirl
1. "Its blackened boughs bescrawled by dirty talons."
Palestinians, graffiti-covered walls of the temple mount...the olive tree in enemy territory, scorched, but standing, 2. "The hour befalls our moments lacking count
"
Soon...the Kingdom without end...
3. "A predawn pall of dark and light imbalanced."
But first, all nations rise up (darkness) against Israel (light)...
1. Nope. Think about the "dirty talons."
2. Yep, pretty much.
3. Yeah, that's the physical manifiestation of the spiritual. Think about "pall."
To: Sabertooth
About the
dirty talons...
Unclean birds of scripture, in Deuteronomy 11:19 and Leviticus 11:13 (I cheated): eagle, owl, hawk, osprey, stork, raven, vulture, kite, bat(?), pelican, heron, cormorant..
For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together... Matt. 24:28 In those last, terrible days...
Could be a homonym for "dirty talents", or dirty money...the unearned $$$ funding terrorism..
or Ariel Sharon's nickname, Hawk, an old warrior of past, similar battles to hold his country.
Pall, as in "cloak of darkness" over a coffin....and weary, tiresome. Ending.

Getting close on the pun.

What's between the Eastern Gate and the Mount of Olives?
To: Sabertooth
Petra?
I don't have it all figured out...just that it's a prophesy riddle.
To: Sabertooth
What's between the Eastern Gate and the Mount of Olives?The Garden of Gethsemane? I'm going to pray for wisdom now....and maybe actually do some learnin'.(^:
To: Sabertooth
This is a dark work from you, Sabertooth. I am brought into dark places in my own remembrance in the reading. This darkness surprises me, but not the power to evoke it in your word play. Thank you for the ping. I love to read your works.
To: Sabertooth
Thanks for this one. NICE.
