Evil Speaks In Dark Voices To Gift Fear

Evil Speaks In Dark Voices To Gift Fear I heard a cry that bellowed, run away "For here your life will be badly broken". Longing for greater adventure that day I thought an unknown road best be taken. Yet once there that voice cried loud out again. " You must not tarry, this land is cursed". Thinking the worst if I dare to remain, I raced back into that hell in reverse! Yet again, that same loud darker voice cried, " Leave now or else here you will surely die". I realized now that voice always lied, returned I home, to yet again retry. Evil speaks in dark voices to gift fear. Always best to question such and steer clear. Robert J.
