Don't Mime Me For I Know Not What I'm Demon

It spends all day

Playing with your mind,

Keeping it company

So you’ll never get board.

Entertaining your thoughts

With optical illusions,

More for his amusement

Treating you like a theme park.

Playing practical jokes

With your sanity

That aren’t really funny

Though its laugh echoes in your mind.

I have a solution

That may seem crazy,

Kill it with kindness

And it might be reborn as a mime.

Then you will miss

And appreciate that demon

When driven to the brink

Of total silence.

Sounds like the devil playing with our mind
he is not silent in my thoughts it is only if I read the bible
and rebuke him and pray about it and quote scripture then it stops.


Hmm...?

Thank you for sharing and for your lovely
review and comments you left on my page.

I played practical jokes with my wife's sanity all the time. And she plays with mine, it goes both ways.
