So Double Minded


You love to double dare,
double down
Raise the stakes and double the bet
You love to double dip,
double back
Lower the cage and shark bite thru the double mesh net
The risk of getting caught
is part of doing the crime
		But you don’t care about doing the time
		You love to run in the shadows,
		dark places where there ain’t no sunshine
You’re one double-hearted soul
with a double mind
		Cheshire grinning to yourself,
		you say: look what the cat caught,
		look what the dog hid
You’re so evil,
so double minded
		Joker laughing to yourself,
		you say: see what the marked cards bought,
		see what the fake bluff bid
You’re so devilish,
so double minded
		Corrupting souls and selling them into sin,
		buying their integrity and then profiting
But one day, you’re gonna try to stretch your
double mind into a triple
*** ... poisoned milk bottle 
Lying lips sucking the death nipple
Then you realize too late,
your boss, the Devil got a single mind
He been wanting to kill you for a long time
They said: 
	you were drop dead beautiful
	at the funeral home
Rumor spread: 
	when your face hit the plate,
from the doubledecker arsenic-laced burger that you ate,
	      how ironic was your fate 
Your suffering, scorned double-insured wife,
	convenient love of your double agent life,  
did your double mind in with a double cross
And in doing so, 
she earned a double bonus from your boss
Your double-fanged, black widow wife
bit you with a double dose poison surprise
And her double helixes, they got wiped clean,
when all the evidence vanished from the murder scene
At your coffin,
	  she gave your lips a doublemint kiss,
and gave her heart a double tap with the fist
She don’t have to double over anymore
from your double-barreled gut punch lies,
now that she gave you 
the big sleep, double indemnity goodbye
Eulogy slammed your memory hard 
	     ... yes she did
Plucked flowers from the graveyard,
put it on your coffin lid
Hell is glad getting you on the underground grid
You’re so devilish, 
so double minded

Good Morning Freddie. I hope this day finds you well. This entry is original. You were creative with the double minded to which you never strayed. With that being said may the good over the evil win out. You are very skilled Freddie. Wonderful in its entirety. Have a wonderful day.
