Devil Poem by Ragy Sandid

Devil



The unaltered face
Beneath the skin
One cannot displace
It lies within

Invites the owner
To an iced hellraiser
Where the donor
Offers an appraisal

For deeds ill done
And praises the frailty
That allowed no one
To escape mortality

Welcome the puppeteer
Who describes the puppet
As mighty under veneer
But too weak to set

Free because we do
What we desire
And once we're through
Who puts out the fire?

The mover and shaker
Of magnitude 8 events
Makes us one of the makers
Then pretends to circumvent

Ready to be visible
But hiding in leech location
Invites one to be invincible
How seductive is salvation?
