Evil never feels old
He wakes up each morning
and after brushing
his teeth
and combing his hair
looks forward to
the tasks
that the supreme being
lays in his path
'Every day is
a great day, '
He'll say.
'I may be ancient
but
I'm young
at heart.' Nothing
can stop him.
If plans derail
his limbs flail
he won't acknowledge
the fail. 'No problem.
There's always another
tomorrow, ' He'll say.
Whether jumping
The Snake
or tearing flesh
from innocent newborn
Evil never feels old.
