Devil's Speech
They are a race who deserves nothing less
Then Hell's fire on hands and breast
Slaves can be misled to believe
That freedon is something they can conceive
A woven web of lies and deceit
Traps them on the road where sin leads the feet
They are hopelessly lost and are searching for light
They turn to sin, pleading for night
Fools! No two wrongs make a right
No amount of struggle can free them
And doubts take root and stem
Human minds tangle all on their own
A minimal prodding will rattle their bone
An idea sinks in and never really leaves
It simmers and soaks and gently weaves
A large possibility the mind wants to heave
Pushed out of sight, out of mind?
Ha! Even without eyes, I could never be so blind
Once an idea is in, there's no getting it out
Assumptions and probabilities the mouth will spout
Easily confused and easily tricked
Easily frustrated and easily ticked
Humans will not survive the next decade in time
By then they will be dead and covered in grime
Their souls stacked up, waiting for the judge's call
To who's going up and who's to fall
Though humans are supposedly advanced in their years
They fail to see and fail to hear
That what really matters is an afterlife to fear
