The Devil Calls

The demons await

The world is spinning
You're standing still
Stagnant in your waste
Time drags on the spinning Wheel
Tempting it to haste

Lady fate severs the line
Life abruptly halts
Taken by surprised in Perfect Time
Tethered by your faults.

The guilty, No
No Sinners No
Know Sins Not
Innocent Every One!
And time is all I've got

Faith falters
Now you're mine
Your arrogance brought you here
And I will wrought the ego out
In time you'll know true fear!

In my bowels, Your fate awaits
I will Swallow you whole
And nothing you will do or say
Will save your mortal soul

The Demons come out to feast
The smell of blood so fresh
Their hunger knows no bounds
Feasting on your flesh

Tortured cries in vain
Sweet symphonies Of Hell!
And pain does not define the pain
you'll feel in every cell

No Savior will you find
Forsaken by the W***e
And Death Is deaf and blind,
To The horrors that's in store

The Devil Calls
Your soul is mine
Your soul is mine
And time is all
I've got

This poem of imaged horror the Dante Inferno is described well here. To me hell has always been a self created one of conscience and I am sorry to take liberties but here as well I see metaphor of self condemnation and ruin. There is no worse pain than that that is self inflicted. No insult or blow has more prolonged effects than one's own self deprecation. A powerful piece that for me its force lies in its metaphor
