Devil Hell Punishment

The devil's work shall not be put off till tomorrow So en-charges many minions to do his bidding for him But just who is the charming fella A shoulder in the shadows Stoker of the fire a bellow Or merely a convenient confidence to call upon when frowned upon your actions are by other's A wicker version of oneself to the power multiple of Six In my defence it was not neither me nor i but he who made me do it And though i fought him long and hard i could not find the strength nor will or faith to overcome the darker lord Well that's ok with a twinkle in his eye said the prosecutor to the baying congregation As if what you said rings true and are as faithful as you say then be it only left up to god himself to place his judgement upon thee But be prepared heaven help you if you are not because what depths of hell awaits you Because if the devil is all he is supposedly made out to be then surely he hates it and takes it far more personally than god when his name is used and taken in vain If one believes in either or Damned if do Damned if don't

You put forward a good argument here Christopher in a very well written poem Truth being said is that people will blame anyone and anything to save their own skin, the alibi is irrelevant once it does the job, after all I would rather be judged by a higher authority than so called peers. Have very little faith in court systems that favors the rich, cheers David
