Demons Take Flight

Weaving webs of deceptions, the lies that they be,
sowing seeds of darkness, from the evil that they be.
 Hiding in the shadows, by the darkness of their day,
with their words of darkness,  casting shadows along their way.
 Setting snares of entrapment, they keep out the light,
they watch in the darkness, as their demons take to flight.
 With each spin of a web, the darkness it’s about to be,
as the legions gather round, they make their final plea.
 To kill the souls of kindness, till no love can be found,
those who walk in the darkness, to the webs they are bound.
 To destroy and be destroyed, by the webs of the night,
one against the other, the demons take to flight.
