The Second Coming

”The Second Coming” is about a shift in community, it describes moments before revelations begins. Everything is falling apart and life is chaotic and hard to live. Author compares this with great civilizations and implies how they did not succeed. For example “A shape with lion body and the head of a man” refers to a lost Egyptian civilization. In second verse author gives hints that after all this chaos, there is a change coming – still not sure if this will save us.
