Evil
There are those in whom evil is deep-set,
in whose hearts love lotus is yet to bloom,
for example, the demon Baphomet,
overlord of dark realms, where awaits doom.
It’s a place we would do well to forget,
lest the stench of evil becomes our tomb,
so we best hasten from there our escape,
sheltered in God’s domain of love agape.
