The Light Poem by Aram Stefanian

When a guilty verdict was announced,
Steven, the serial killer, gave a sardonic smile
How he wanted to slaughter the frightened jurors
Before he would be fried
While in a prison cell, he couldn't hide himself
From those familiar voices in his bean,
''Go for one more mass murder, you creepy moron, ''
Which did hurt his pride
That night he dreamed that he faced a sinister
Demon before the gates to hell
''This doorway is locked, you're unwelcome in here,
First you must visit heaven
The souls of those whom you've exterminated
Are to judge you, and that would ring the bell
All your murdered guiltless victims are gonna
Come home to haunt you, Steven''
When Steven woke up, he was surprised to
Hear no more voices in his aching head
It was pitch dark in his cell, and for the
First time in his life he did freak out
Somebody grabbed him by the hand, and he heard,
''I'll bring you to an angel trial before you're dead''
When outside, he spotted his companion as a
Little girl, his first victim whom he'd brutally wiped out
Her little hand was warm and firm, and as they were
Walking speechlessly, Steven felt repentant and saw the light
