Bedevil

The devil stared at me in hell as i came in And i heard belch out right "Come in lad for a pot of blood." I shrugged my shoulders and sadly said: "Sir Devil, i am here to pay for all my crimes." He rang his hands and grumbled out loud: "i know, i know! Feast a while and soon we shall come to that." "but," is said." god will not be happy if i were instead made to enjoy hell." The devil stared at me and smiled: "Hell is my home and god has no say." He gave me a mug of blood which i drank and quenched my thirst. "Home is hell, hospitable." he said chewing a human head. I was afraid but ate for, “home is hell, hospitable." Soon as i was through, he called me to him and said; "Now is the time for feast......." And he plucked away my arm for a hearty meal.. Oh the devil...bedevil....a cunning bastard. I merely watched to quench my fears before And watch him taste the blood, Before he went for my tender heart
