Notes About The Poem

The Fate and Emotions of a Demon on Earth 11

Freedom

Live alone, like a wild animal, a mustang, or a jaguar
The best, life is a race, speeding to the eternal hell
My beating is not my heart, but the dynamism 

The speed of the mind just lives in the sky, oh, far!
I will find, I wade through, I break through the world
Through civilization, through the jungle. For,

for the light of mind, mine is still dark, but I need 
light to live in the shiny and glittering dark light
Through galaxies, through mortal mind

Live, just live in the space of unlimited life
Live, just live in the life of unlimited space
Live, just live in the deleted time 

Oh, yes, this is the answer!
I got the eternal existence!
The forever life
Without forever
No time!

But live always. Live always? 
No time, No future, No past
Past, present, future
Only at one point

Hmm
Beginning of time
How can I live three times?
At one time?

“That’s why you need to accept human life.”
Catherine. Again. The angel. A woman
“Yes! I am that!” Hmm. I am that, or I am that?

“I am here to help you. I forgive you.” Said Satan
“You have a long way to go back to hell!” Said Master Satan
“He will stay here! That’s why he is William! Will-I-Am!” Shouted Cathrine

“Oh, really? Do you know who your loved William is?” Asked Satan her
“Yes, your creature from hell, and my lifegoal is pure him.” She replied
“Oh, your life’s purpose is purify him. Hell has no dust.” Answered Satan

“Really?!” Catherine asked Satan 
“Yes. The hell is a clean place. Dust can’t exist in fire. We clean the sinners.
“We are more than angels. We are doctors of soul. Demons.” Said Satan

“No! This is a lie!” Catherine protested
“Hmm. It’s not that. I am not a liar. I am a power. Top. Satan.”
“You and your devils cause people pain and suffering!” Accused Catherine
“Yes. You are right, dear Angel Catherine! Your wording is accurate.” Said Satan
“Why?”Why are you doing this?” Asked Catherine
“Because they are sinners. They are guilty. They must confess!” Said Satan
“No! No!! Never! They aren’t guilty!” Protested Catherine

“You don’t understand us, dear Catherine. We clean people and save them
After their hellish life, will come a new one. A better. Than the human life.”
“I can’t understand it!” Shouted Cathrine 

“Every sinner must confess. Every sinner must atone.  Yes. To be clean.
We live in the last days. We don’t know the exact day. But we must work
We don’t take differences! You can see William’s case.” Satan explained

“What exactly did he do?” Asked Catherine
“He committed a terrible crime.” Answered Satan
“What?!” Asked Catherine
“He prayed the Lord’s Prayer.” Said Satan
“And what is the problem? He has freedom!” Said Catherine
“Yes, but not against hell!” Said Satan
“And what about religious freedom?” Asked Catherine
“What kind of impudent questions are these?! Outrageous!!” Satan shouted indignantly
