Devil's Ego

Devil said let me tell ya one thing, Where you live is my domain, Prefer hell, but this is where is reign, Go ahead and take a look, Ive read your good book, Lucifer means light bringer, Not a light you want to linger, I'll twist your head so tightly, No sleep, daily or nightly, Youll never get a break, Trust me for I'm the first snake, Come and jump on my train, Fame and wealth for little pain, Try, take me like a fool, You'll be used as my tool, I'll expose every single shame, Just a small part of the game, The goal is to give you separation, For you are His greatest creation, To think man is so easy, Especially if I am dressed sleazy, How come God loves you so, I am an angel he made though, Before the Bible, before you, Before a rib to make two, He created me for some reason, But worship was not pleasing So he banished me to this plane, Tormenting forever I shall remain, I shall twist all that is good, Far after the cross has stood, This present, in a suit and tie, I'll be a very popular guy, Creator of all social media, It's my evil encyclopedia, Infiltrating every single School, To believe creation you are a fool, Just leading the population herd, Making two sexes absurd, Planting a seed in a vaccine, They'll never read in between, The obvious seems so obscure, Making dark what was pure, Starting when they are young, Even where worship is sung, Nowhere will be safe, I'll start as a small chafe, Whispering thoughts in your ear, Tormenting all you hold dear, Never deserving of God's love, All it took was a little shove, In the end I'll be forthright, I'm just sick of your sight.

Excellent poem. In folk tales and such the devil is ugly-portrayed with pitchfork and horns. But we all know he is the angel of light. Everything looks good or else we would run from him.

I concur. He will wine and dine us to distract us from God. Thank you for your comment.
