That 'ol Demonic Spirit Poem by Dorsey Baker

That 'ol Demonic Spirit



The old man with many
health problems
every time he goes to bed
that 'ol demonic spirit comes
to visit him
trying to force
him into submission
it disturbs
his sleep and his peace
of mind
that 'ol demonic spirit
that uninvitedguest
every night
it visits him
trying to force
him into submission
the stagecoach
arrives
that 'ol demonic spirit
its one and only driver
no baggage or passenger
carried
that 'ol demonic spirit
with its bitter sweet moan
comes to visit
night after night
creeping into his thoughts over
again and again!
