The Conversation Between God and the Devil: Chapter One
Into a Mirror Darkly
stared He upon his throne
intense He studied starkly
gazing as He sat prone
Into the Nothingness
His eternal eyes pried
in doing so creating Darkness
and His undoing there He spied
"You giveth me inward sight"
Said He, staring into the Void
"And I your shadow to every Light."
Said It, stepping from the Void
From the One there were Two
"From the Me there came the You"
Said God to the shade
"From my light your shadow is now made"
"Why do I exist?"
Said It to his God
Its questions continued to persist
Yet He only sighed with a nod
"I maketh you in reason
as well as in rhyme.
A purpose for your treason
you will learn in due time."
The Dark Shade did then ponder
as God sat idly with a smile
"And then what shall I do, I wonder."
Thought the Shade, grinning all the while
