A Conversation With Satan

What of love? Satan- Love is wanting, nothing more. What of compassion. Satan- Come on Passion? What of faith? Satan- For all idiots to heed! Why the smirk? Satan- Because I like you! What does like mean? Satan- In this case it means similar to. What, I'm not like you! Satan- Then why are you interested in me? You intrigue me. Satan- Really, so I have something you want? I didn’t say that. Satan- Come on son, all you have to do is ask. I see your tricks, trying to tempt me! Satan-Indulge me, or are you afraid to refuse! All I want is real love. Satan- I love you. ©david byrne feb 2012
