Notes About The Poem

The Fate and Emotions of a Demon on Earth 4

To confront strange human emotions

Human life. I am wicked. My fate is cursed
Oh, Satan, why did you send me here to live?
Please, forgive my sin. Hmm. No answer

I want to go back to hell. I can’t live this life
I don’t want these disgusting things in my life
Envy, greed, deceit, hatred, love, and more

“You mean, human love, not the demonic one.”
Asked it a beautiful and kind lady, a shiny angel
“Yes, this is the reality, demonic love is higher.”

I answered. Demonic love comes from the space
Human love is from selfish human interest and…
…caused by animal instincts unworthy of demons

“Oh, really?? I read your thoughts!” She said
“ You are not right. What do you think is wrong?”
I don’t reply to her. I don’t care about her opinion

I just walk, just walk on the streets of Wembley
Thinking, contemplating the existence of life
What's coming up? What happened? Hmm

Sadness in this life. Full of pain and sufferings
I do not understand the people. They like this
They like their unsimmetrical, dissonant lives

It’s absurd, it’s abnormal. Never be normal
“This is normal! Your life is not normal! Isn’t?!
The angel followed me. She flies over me

“I want to help you. I am your guardian angel.”
“Really? For a demon?” I laughed. She is crazy
She landed in front of me. “Why not? She winked

“You are very magnetic, but I don’t need you.”
“Why? You are alone, I am alone.” She said
Because I am full of problems. Can you see?

“So, you are afraid of me. Oh!” She asked
“No, I am not an easy-going demon man.
I am closed, I want go back to hell.” I told

“ But you can not go back. You have man's fate.
This is your chain. You must choose now.
Between me and any of the human women?”

“I want you, and I want a human woman too,” I said
“Wow! Well done! Let’s start your new life here!
Oh, I will be your angel, and you will marry here!”

“Stupid exdemon!” Satan roared from the space.
“You never learn! Stay away from the mortals,
and from the angels! You stay there!” Shouted

Walk, walk and walk. I dreamed something
Something interesting about an angel and me
Hmm. I am sick. I am daydreaming. Extreme

Fifty-five years of suffering. Alone. It’s a desert
My soul. Hmm. But the desert is clean. Pure
“But full of snakes and scorpions.” The angel said

“Yes, that’s what I am saying”, I replied to the angel
“Yes, but live here, in the human civilisation, is…
… better, and… safer for you. She explained

Hmm. Am I dreaming or not?
I don’t understand my mind
She is cleverer than me. Sure
