The Devil's Will

He will come to call if you neglect your P's and Q's, if you dabble in the black arts, or forget to pay your dues. He'll be less than optimistic if you ply a wicked trade, yours or someone else's 'til the debt to sin is paid. Criminals, malingerers, and those with crooked hearts will wriggle through the sacraments, upset the apple carts. He'll paint you in the darkest light and make you wear a hood, play with your insecurities and sway you from the Good. Don't compromise your spirit or confront the devil's will, remember he is waiting for your common sense to spill.
