Angelus's Revenge Part 1

Continued from ANGELus> http://www.poetrysoup.com/poems_poets/poem_detail.aspx?ID=184583 *************************************************************************** If you haven't heard the story about Jekyll and Hyde, the moral of the story is; All Have A Good And Dark Side, but the story doesn't really go on much to say of how these forces do vary within us all in their way. If you're a very good person, your dark side is very evil equally. If you're not all that good, your dark side is only evil to that degree. The good that was once within Angelus was a good that was close to Christ like, so when he lost his soul and the darkness took over, he pursued evil with such evil delight. Within the vampire community there is an unwritten rule which all of them do take to mind; "Feast on the living! Indulge your evil, but never ever kill your own kind." Angelus had no allegiance towards his kindred. He'd torture and kill them as well. It was whispered among the living as well as with all the undead, "Satan would fear Angelus's presence in hell." He first slaughtered his family, but his father's slow death was Angelus's ultimate pleasure. "My dear father," he asked, "Have you suffered enough? Do you feel the pain you gave me beyond measure? I think not my dear father, so scream louder for me. Let the entire village know that I've arrived. The louder you scream, the more merciful I might be. I won't let you live but I might let you die.

Chilling write, the dark side very bluntly depicted, a chilling reality. Revenge is worth than death in my book. It puts you under the dominion of those who hurt you. No gain there whatsoever. Well written story. Best wishes, Caroline.

You have opened my eyes, Bill. I didn't know that the better a person is, the darker their other side can be, but giving it some thought I do believe this is an insightful revelation. Excellent work! Love, Carolyn
