Fate as a Demon Would Have it

Fate as a Demon Would Have It

The joy of sin
The angel's sorrow
An anger within
And the end of tomorrow.

In the demon's eyes of hatred
So often lies the shiney gleam
From his indescribable pleasure
Of a young child's cries for more ice cream.

The silence is so loud
From the human souls now still.
They lay ignorant and spoiled
Victims of his constant thrill.

As all of us are these days
(figureatiivly speaking)
Day by day society sinks
Greatness constantly leaking.

Now is the demon above sin? Maybe.
Perhaps he's just the forgetting of truth.
Call him what you like,
While he steals common sence from our youth.

(Along with many of his other disguises)
T.V., foul music, The list goes on.
Our lives now revolve around material pleasures
While values once so treasured are gone.

This demon's not the only one
Millions are born of our lust, want, and hating
They'd die if only we found our values
(Don't you see? They are of our creating)

Though, I'll say I cannot blame,
For many demons I too have created
With all my spite and scornful ways
My soul also has been berated.

Remember, these things don't have a set lifetime.
They're born with every tainted thought.
But die whenever we seek to learn things;
When good morals we are taught.

You can be sure this little monster,
(If given the chance) will take his toll.
So my friend, please heed my warning
"Keep a close watch on your soul."
