a poem in my pocket

that ancient dragon
cunning serpent
epitome of evil
father of lies
the deceiver
our accuser
murderer

satan still prowls
“seeking whom he may devour”
whether sinners, saints, saviors

his loyal minions
destroy families
enslave addicts
abuse children
pervert truth
entice fools
incite wars

beware!

Linking with dVerse Poets where De Jackson invites us to write a quadrille (44 words) on “dragon” theme…
