Demon of Destruction
Where is he?
We all look around
afraid we might glimpse him
he is Abaddon
the demon of destruction
associated with the end of times
do you think just talking about him will call him?
the rest of us are silent, thinking, feeling scared
he is probably busy ruling over the abyss, someone suggests.
I am not so sure, he likes tormenting us with demon locusts.
We all urge her to stop talking.
Who knows what might call the king of the grasshoppers back?
Isn’t it bad enough that he has brought a hurricane and lightning.
