The First Poet

The First Poet


Once I stood witness 
In a place before time
I passed through a Golden Door
Into a room that was sublime
There was GOD
And his only Begotten Son
Two Angels Lucifer and Michael
Their battle had just begun
I saw a passionate fight
Lasting all through the night
A fierce struggle of wits and will
Lucifer fled to avoid Michael's kill
The Warrior Angel told Lucifer
He will never take Jesus's place
For your sin of Envy
You will spend Eternity in disgrace
Into The Lake of Fire
The bones of Fallen Angels 
Fuel this evil bonfire
To this day The Dark Angel lives in his
Den of Decay
Planning for his return 
To wage The Final War
On Judgement Day
