Tales Of Heaven And Hell

Rating: 5.0


Lounging on the throne of heaven
God …so high above the rest of us
I see another throne going up
Aspiring to be compared
To the height of heights

His…who beauty was generous to
And penurious to the rest of us
He whom the all mighty loved best
When he God's power mocked
He…Lucifer walked among us
With vanity that demeans all the rest

I remember the day
The all mighty gathered us
To witness his new creation of clay
Of free will pride and lust
Lucifer pondered with distaste
And wouldn’t bow with the rest

The all mighty then cast him out of heavens
For he has rebelled...
Into the land of Ariel, Belial and Nephilims
Ariel I remember and Belial was one of us
Exiled from the heavens
For they were too proud to obey God
Into the new land of daughters of Eve and Adam
God's new creatures of clay
Who lived long ago in Eden

There the fallen angels sinned of what they call lust
There they made creatures of combined clay and light
The evil Nephilims that God's wrath they did ignite
The all mighty sent to clear his beloved land
The great flood

I failed to tell you I was cast along with the three of them
But I didn’t subdue with exile or produce inferior nymphs
I passed through the gates of my exile…the famed Hell,
Beyond the sentries Sin and Death …it was I who gave birth to sin
From a burst of flame from my forehead

I was no better than Lucifer …but less vain
For I defied God into invading the innocence of Eden
With my infant sin...after the power given to me by him
For he believes in your strength against it …clay things


So fires I did start hatred and envy …wars I shall begin
Fight you creatures. Try to hold on to love but I shall always win
I inspire sin into your innocent hearts teach them not to forgive
And lure you away from your loving God the all mighty I admit
Whom for his faith in you…he now hurts

'Thou shall kill' I see rivers of your blood it's war time
All by the ancient serpent's hand …Satan's…mine

Provocative poem, especially when you take on the person of a fallen angel and get under the skin of that angel, revealing feelings and attitudes. I do believe there is a highly intelligent but devious and invisible 'God of this world' - the only explanation (in my opinion) for the craziness of war, humans killing each other by the millions. Murder and war are not humanitarian, not normal. In one biblical phrase Satan is called the 'Prince of the power of the air' - perhaps influencing attitudes, broadcasting and inciting hatred, stoking the fires of suspicion, distrust, revenge. Perhaps Satan's greatest success is influencing people to not believe in a caring Creator God - many intelligent people view that idea as archaic and primitive religion. I don't do religion but know God as a friend. Your poems are certainly original and creative, with nice use of language. You have depth.
