I think this year though I will try to break down or give some rationale to the events chronicled in this poem. The first part is, to me, pretty on th...
Apocalypses have been predicted pretty much since there have been civilizations to cower in fear of them. Since one of the “biggies” is just around the corner I thought this week timely to explore some earlier world-shattering (or not) prophesies.1 Rome’s End.
