The Devil Told Me Poem by Randy McClave

You get drunk and/or high because the Devil told you to
And that's the same reasoning you cheat and have an affair,
You argue and you fight until you are black and blue
Because, you said the Devil told you to as a dare.
You lie and you sin, and you scream it's because of the Devil
Because of all that sin and temptations he whispers in your ear,
And because of you, Satan will always revel
As you say that the Devil is always instigating and standing near.
You scream and you say that the Devil made you do it
When you did or do something terrible or horrible or wrong,
Then on the ground with a cockiness you will then spit
While saying that the soul is weak, but the back is strong.
For your sins and temptations the Devil gets the blame
Especially when you judge and hate others for the same reasons as well,
You blame the Devil by always calling out his name
But, remember this it's you and not the Devil sending your soul to Hell.
