Poem
When I was a boy I use to be alone in my room
I would hide under my covers in my bed
I knew Satan was trying to get me
When I was alone in my room in the dark
I saw him
He was not red with horns and a pointed tail
But he was beautiful
With hair of the softest gold
Eyes of the clearest blue
And skin of silken white
He would whisper to me
He would coax me to come to him
He would sing smoothly and softly of assurance
But I did not trust him and I would run for my Bible
And I would open it up
And Satan would smile and fade away
I would sleep with my Bible under my pillow
I would stare into the darkness of night's blacken room
I could feel him staring at me
He has lost and he knows it
He must take the world down with him
We are his victims by our own sins and our own secret desires
He knows us and he taunts us
He is our promise of freedom from our self
A place without consequence
A time before sin when all was good and nothing was bad
He is the smoldering ember of our diseased black hearts
That we lustfully shadow with our inner desire
Once I walked to him
In the still of the night alone in my room
I took his hand and he closed his into mine
And he smiled while I screamed
For the floor had collapsed into a falling earth
And fire consumed my raw young flesh
And Satan was ugly
With demon eyes of bleeding red
Decaying flesh with dead maggots boring through scaly skin
And hair smoldering of pitch black
Sharp daggers of teeth and long fingernails of marsh green
I was falling into hell within his arms
The sound of wicked laughter
Was drowned by the gentle words of my mother
As I awoke in her arms
My Dad patting my head
I've never seen Satan again
Except in my eyes
Only when I'm alone
Alone in the dark with shallow light
I can look into my mirror
And stare
Stare as hard as I can
I can see Satan in my eyes
Laughing
In my eyes
He laughs at me
I can remember when I was a boy
I saw the Devil
And the Devil smiled at me
And I smiled at the Devil
