Somebody Has To Ask

Somebody Has To Ask

There have been times
during this spiritually 
confounding trip
I've pondered
the dangerous question
if God and Satan
were one and the same

These extreme wings
of good and evil
forever mixing
and switching it up
til they blur in the cosmic blender
and become indistinguishable

Our stretched souls waver 
as these eternal combatants 
vie for our favor

WHAT THE HELL !!!

Do angels and demons keep a running score?

Who resides on top of the leader board?

Is this life all a rigged game?

Did the Lord create the Devil
as some sort of sick 
schizophrenic alter ego?

A contrived counterbalance
of see-saw temptation
to forever test our wavering faith?  

Making religion the ultimate 
sleight of hand illusion?

Has humanity been conned
by a master grifter magician?

OH ME OF LITTLE FAITH !!!
