The 'Devil' at Work

The 'Devil' at Work

Treacherous knows my name
implies that one's insane
Arrogance holds the game
seeking truth be lame
Weakness cries the same
injustice put to shame
Enlightenment is pure aim
that Devil's work be tame
Scandal winner in fame
Satan's mate fans the flame
Truth to see never the twainΒ 
left flying a wingless plane
Honour weeps in disdain
at sight of endless blood stain
Twisted key for unlock-able chain
minds crack in mental pain
Hit with evils continuous cane
can as one destroy cruel reign?
Witness 'Devil' at work be slain
shipped out on a ethical train
Integrity taking total Β blame

Mizzy ......

Great use of strong short lines to produce this dark piece Wendy. Fine example of monorhyme to get your points across.

Regards Mick.
