Is it irony
or maybe co-incidence
Signs say otherwise
The Last Trump ready to blow
Romulus screams from the grave

Once it moved mountains
Right now we can’t build a thing
Sure sign of the times

These pictures are just a selection of some I took on a recent trip to Prague. Nothing could have prepared me for the sheer quality of the churches throughout the city. I can’t remember the names, I was simply blown away by the visual and spiritual feast.

The portal’s open
so it’s time to make our peace
Eden will descend

Praise the bishop’s chair
Build a house high around it
Culture will follow
