This one is another experiment in free flow poetry. Where I write with little in my mind and see what happens. I'm not massively pleased with this one but if I only post my good poems it's going to be another year before you get an entry.

Demons receive deliverance

Devils and and hellions too

imps and goblins find god in the making

so, tell me, what about you?

Archfiends are oft given amnesty

succubi lies we forget

and djinn find within the redemption from sin

so tell me where comes this regret?

If forgiveness is standing in judgement

and forgetting is lying in words

then all that's required is the statement

and the right white lies to be heard.

So let demons keep their deliverance

let the archfiend and succubi, too

If we need to find our truths in a lie

and belief in a falsehood I tell you that I

want no part of it, what about you?

Actually, on re-reading, it's not that bad. I normally work with quite florid words so it's nice to have a couple that are more, er, simple.

Rrrrrrrramble ramble ramble.
