Confrontation With Evil - Part I of 10 - the Beast

Part I - Iambic Pentameter abab rhyme scheme O dark demented dreams I plea thee gone; To leave this tortured mind at last alone. No more the sick sadistic bleeds at dawn Where tears have bared the marrow of my bone. Your cursed cause I never will explain, It belches up from deep below the earth Where foul diminished demons proffer pain And came to be carnality at birth. Possess me not with weak and fetid force Eccentric in its noxious, fading fate For you must change direction--carve new course And quickly flee from me through Satan's gate. What sin has brought thy powers to my door? My eyes can see but see no certainty, But smell your Master's hell inside His whore; A stench that rents the truth from sanity. I will not bend or break to your desires, You have no hold upon my life or soul, I will begin and consummate the fires That leaves you only ash but leaves me whole. With alabaster angels from above, So take your final leave or lose all hope While smited by the Lord's eternal love. I banish all your beastly, bastard ways From now on through a cold eternity. The evil done has seen its evil days But now you'll see a new reality. Part II - Iambic Tetrameter aabb Rhyme scheme.
