Evil's Spell
The Devil rose from Hades with a roll call in his hand.
The names he’d burned into his list were scorned throughout the land.
They’d lied and stole and cheated and had cared not who they harmed
Arriving now at judgement day when evils souls are farmed.
For final retribution, an eternity in Hell,
The cost that all will have to pay when caught in evil’s spell.
For evil breeds its family, with greed and hate and pain,
Preparing all it’s followers for Hell’s eternal flame.
The Devils face ablaze with joy, for mankind now was ripe,
For very easy pickings, for most folk are now his type.
But should you get a sneak preview of those upon his list,
Just hope that on his final roll it’s your name that he missed!
