I am reposting this poem about 2012 because no one has taken up my challenge to decipher it. Once again, I challenge you to decipher the meaning. Are you able?

2012

Long count calendar, Mayan wrote;
Nine hells of fifty-two years;
Counter reset, beginning anew.
Transition from fourth world to fifth;
Five millennia in waiting;
Philosophy reborn.
Lord Krishna speaks in lunar cycles;
Hindu worlds yet unborn;
A golden foetus dreams;
Five millennia in gestation.
Malachy, Irish born monk;
A saint made in Clement times.
One hundred and eleven popes counted:
The labour of the sun wrapped in gold;
A life eclipsed in birth and death;
The second becomes third from last.
The glory of the olives reigns today;
German birth in controversy,
Benediction from the church assures rule;
Sixteen is second.
The seven hilled city is destroyed;
The Roman born is witness.
The rock shall say amen;
The first shall be the last.

  1. It means the end of the world as we know it.

    Predictions made long ago.

  2. Anomymous 1:10 PM, thank you for stating the obvious. What I meant was to decipher the meaning of the words themselves.
