The Fourth Horseman

When He opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying "Come and see". So I looked, and behold, a pale horse, and the name of him who sat on it was Death, and Hades followed with him. And power was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword, with hunger, with death, and by the beasts of the earth... revelations 6:7-9


I always wanted to be the fourth horseman..

The Prophet's Question

O Lord, how long shall I cry
And You will not hear?
Even cry to you, "Violence!"
And You will not save.
Why do you show me iniquity,
And cause me to see trouble?
For plundering and violence are
before me;
There is strife, and contention arises.
Therefore the law is powerless,
And justice never goes forth,
For the wicked surround the righteous;
Therefore perverse judgement
proceeds.
