Lucifer Laughs
I have been writing poetry, fiction and short stories for many years and have completed a book of poems. I also enjoy comedy writing.
First it was hate.
Then hatred came.
Now my mind is gone.
The voices driving me insane.
I sang songs of holiness.
But only demons rocked.
Now here I am, half dead.
Watching a Grandfather's clock.
Cross over shoulder
Driving nails
Lucifer laughs louder
At a Christian fails.
Now here I am standing.
Looking down from this roof.
Giving up on this world so demanding
My actions are no spoof
As the wind blows under my feet.
A dark shadow flashes twice before my eyes
Then I lay still on the street
As Lucifer basks in the scream and the cries
But now I am free
I am free from a world made of fake
Now I am what I am
For Lucifer's sake.
But then, the light I saw was gone
And then the gates of hell emerged
Satan then wrapped me close in his arms
and whispered, Christianity perged
I suddenly felt ease
I suddenly felt comfort under his wings
For now I had a true master to please
One who answers prayers and crown men kings.
