Satan's Patsy


You've been tricked
     and you don't even know it
You got played
     'cause you're dumber than a slow wit
Satan used you like a chump
     on the ground your head got thumped
And you skidded and burned your rump
     such a wicked fall when you got dumped
Now you're just an understudy corpse-to-be
     buried in your role as Satan's patsy

I was avoiding this one because of the title, but now I find it more humorous, you make a strong point but with light humor entwined. You say Amen I say Awen, both have the trinity. More in common than perhaps we realize. Must look up the root word for Satan now. Everything has a root or origin. /|\ A short but to the point poem RW.

Ty, Rick. I will get used to your sacred expressions in time also. Before Satan was cast out of heaven, he was called Lucifier. But when he rebelled and Christ cast him out, God changed his name to Satan, that means the great deceiver. Just dropping the knowledge. Love you, bro.
