eclipse Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 God's foot soldier battled me for my legs I resisted soul hungry flames of Heavens ladder he took my gas mask avoiding the stinking dregs of this battlefield as I sought the devil's banker his account was full but to me he now pledged I would bleed my debt to him slowly over time Heaven and hells lakes would forever be dredged until earth and heaven are covered in Hell's rime debtors would be pursued and promised non existence I believed mystics who told me that I would walk I knew for veterans non existence would be a preference the skies were dark and filled with cleansing smoke the devil blew out the sun God used the moon as a lantern relit the sun and over the devil and Hell began to govern.

Makes me think of George Meredith's "Lucifer in Starlight." Well done!
