What do you think this poem is about?

... ☻ A Deal with the Devil (dark)

<font color= red>
Foolish ambitions
The greed of gluttons
Dissembles the heart
Desires burn flesh
Summon him from the dark
Come forth minion of evil
Give your gift to him
Fulfill his heart fantasies
At the end of the river
Drink a stream of pain
Devil's gold is sweet
All who come to take
Will be fed with juicy lies
Fool there is no escape
A deal is a deal
You must pay its price

    A devil should not emanate out of our ambitions and greed, in order to devour our values.Extremely nice poem with good imageries of thoughts.

    Cool. ' at the end of the river', ' drink a stream of pain', ' fed with juicy lies'
    You use words very wisely. We must of course ultimately pay the price for all deals we make with the devil, for all days we have each become a ' minion of evil'.
    Nice write. Brilliantly impressive.
