The Devil

The Devil stopped to visit last night in a dream He was not alone Lucifer and Beelzebub came along too I was not afraid They looked odd Satan had a bushy tail Lucifer had been drinking Beelzebub drooled They would not speak They kept hissing I took him by his fangs Stuck them in Luci’s ear Kicked the Bub downstairs They won’t be coming back

Hello Mr Saaka, There is a simile here almost of how easy it could be to repel satan, and yet and yet..' i hark back to your other write on the breeze becoming a whirlwind, as humans we are so suceptible to our inflated self-worth, and the teaching that there is no such an entity that we are often unable to deal in this way with a spritual attack, I wonder how many out there of Seasoned years would agree there has been no satanic medling in their walk on this earth.' Well done on this one.'

I've read several of your writings. This is the first "humorous" one I've found. Maybe it wasn't meant to be but struck me that way. Thanks for sharing with all of us on the soup. oldbuck
