Devil's Polygon(s)

A Story by Abishai100
"

Idealist Amlan (prince-of-Earth) may be 'lured' by the Devil himself in a legal 'geometry' involving the 'turns' of the heart...and dread!

"
A fun adaptation of the iconic American superstition-rapture film The Devil's Advocate (Keanu Reeves), which I hope you like,

Amlan Satan started his post-educational 'career' as an intelligence man for Euro-securities work (with some Interpol-relation) before deciding to settle into the DC-imagination of wrought street-politics and culture labors and became a special lawyer working with special cases involving a modern capitalism 'design' reflective of a social-media era investment in a sort of 'vigilance' theater, a 'personality' driven ritualistic culture of Earth.



However, Lawyer Satan, a promising American, immigrant from Algeria and US-citizen with stranger past memories involving heritage-ties to the French-colonialism resistance, had started to feel stranger goosebumps regarding the problems/complexity of working in the legal field and addressing some of those 'nasty' human consciousness thoughts regarding the hairiness of human frailty/evils linked to capitalist race ambitions/avarice/apathy (wow).



JOHN MILTON: I came to visit you in your dream-sleep, idealist Amlan.
AMLAN SATAN: Why, because I'm a typical 'prince' of this Earth, Milton?
JOHN MILTON: Do you know why a 'being' like me would don a "Milton' alias?
AMLAN SATAN: I suppose the Devil/Lucifer likes 'figurative' persuasion!
JOHN MILTON: How'd you guess I was the Devil, Amlan?
AMLAN SATAN: I suppose I figured you'd been 'harnessing' my fears.
JOHN MILTON: You sensed it rightly, Amlan Satan.
AMLAN SATAN: We share a namesake, eh, John Milton?
JOHN MILTON: Milton (John) wrote about the fall of humanity, and well.
AMLAN SATAN: He was a legendary poet of religious orientation(s), no?
JOHN MILTON: Do you know why I'm reaching you in this dream-sleep?
AMLAN SATAN: I suppose you categorize me as a 'figure' of psyche-deformity!
JOHN MILTON: You're depressed...about your Earth-life as a lawyer (no?).
AMLAN SATAN: Sure...I suppose all this work with diamond-eye is self-ruin.
JOHN MILTON: It is...and I dare you know to turn to the dark-side (with me).
AMLAN SATAN: Why?
JOHN MILTON: Well...I need an 'artist' on my underworld team of bad-guys (and sirens!).
AMLAN SATAN: There's a 'cadence' to work with human chess, eh, Satan?
JOHN MILTON: I 'doubt' you'd refuse this amazing mind-offer, Amlan, prince.
AMLAN SATAN: I have to think; maybe visit a museum; brood on human-value/art.
JOHN MILTON: Alright!



Amlan Satan had a revelation in this dream but a stranger form. He decided he'd now represent a very controversial film-project (DC) connected to blood-diamond smugglers adventurism/intrigue, and he decided its 'adventurism' spin on real-life capitalism deformity invoked a special 'vigilante' imagination/fantasy and warranted a 'cool' legal sponsorship, and Satan (Amlan) was now considered the best lawyer in America. John Milton (the Devil) was beginning to win his 'case' with this Earth-prince...and perhaps would 'sneer' at this image of cinematic vanity (wow).



AMLAN SATAN: I contend this diamond-baron investment in video-game avatar work reflects an earnest view of the intrigue of capitalist race labors and invasion paranoia/storytelling, but is this sort of art-world investment/luxury defendable in our world of DC-education?



Amlan Satan was now 'thick' in the action of 'becoming' a more 'sophisticated' and 'cunning' lawyer than he'd ever dreamed he'd become, and it was all thanks to John Milton. However, he now wondered if he's literally/figuratively sold his damned soul to the Devil for a simple 'chess' turn for the 'namesake' of human world vanities. How'd he now 're-negotiate' humility in this Earth-context of simplified intelligence-deformity?



MILTON: So, you return to me, in your own dream-sleep, eh, prince (ha!)?
SATAN: I didn't know where to go (at this juncture), Lucifer!
MILTON: You've made quite a turn in drama and chess, Amlan Satan.
SATAN: I'm no relation to you, Milton.
MILTON: Call me dad.
SATAN: I'm not your progeny, Milton/Lucifer.
MILTON: Yet, you've worked with my special geometry in America, no?
SATAN: Perhaps you're right, but I was frustrated and driven to radicalism.
MILTON: Now, you see the 'light' of objective/mature sensibility, eh?
SATAN: I sure do...and I want out (of this 'frame-of-consciousness').
MILTON: Conscience is a creature, Amlan!
SATAN: You lose again (then)...against the 'governance' of heaven.
MILTON: I'll be around, Amlan Satan.
SATAN: I'm forming a cyber-chess 'society' with an alien-invader toy diorama.
MILTON: Sounds humble...and cool (best of luck!).
SATAN: I don't need luck (this time), Milton; I'm achieving this (now) with 'pure' diligence/education/outreach.
MILTON: We'll see (ha!).
