The Great Deceiver

He slithered through our world with his forked tongue

weaving himself on the primal dirt of the ground,

stirring up trouble and mayhem as he went.

With the speed of a black mamba

no one noticed him because he camouflaged himself.

********************************************


He got into every dark crevice, hole and pit

He could find to do his diabolical work.

He tempted, he tortured and he created havoc.

He laughed at your pain and turn the proverbial knife

in the wound, because you were now his own.

*********************************************


He used seemingly ordinary people to possess

and to do his bidding, of every depraved act.

Demons occupied the person to

perform evil work of destruction to it hosts,

inhabiting them with perversion, lies and fear.

*********************************************


You didn't know fear, drew him to you,

You didn't know your pain was his ecstasy,

You didn't know hate was his motive,

Yet you went along with him as you lived in fear.

The Great Deceiver takes no prisoners.

So be vigilant because he might just devour you.
