Evil Darkness

Darkness brought forth, and scurries for light. This evil ascends, be ready to fight. The scourge repressed, spits hate to the sea. Darkness now follows, where light used to be. This evil brings stench, and lays waste to the land. The evil doth swell, from weak mortal man. It taketh from good, and drains from the fold. This demon of night, does not what it's told. With fury and vengeance, and all of his might. The lamb rises up, and now he doth strike.

well said Mark, sadly there are folk who use the cloak of religion to cover their bad deeds - kids still get abused by 'men of the cloth' :-( hugs jan xx

I have no religious conviction but admire those who do have real faith but some people can hide behind their religion yet commit heinous crimes - what hypocrisy there is:-( hugs Jan xx

Evil has had its day Mark, crush it underfoot but only if the good unite. No good turning away thinking someone else will do it all. Tom
