by SATAN aka Laura Tiernay Sagittarius - Not entered

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Humans burning with deep desire
Wanting, yearning, seeking, trying
Bleeding, pleading, crying, dying

Beauty can be found in many places
(Charred flesh; mutilated faces)
Bullet shot catches Joe offguard
Whining, wailing, then praying hard
And finally shrieking, screaming
As strange creatures, sharp teeth gleaming
Stumble upon their hapless prey
No God hath saved sweet Joe today

A knife finds its way into one
Child's chest; Beneath the shining sun
The blade is withdrawn; as the red
Liquid streams out, the newly dead
Falls sloppily upon the ground
Then silence circles all around

I knew this human, awhile back
Of evil heart he had no lack
I loved this man; I loved the hate
That filled his veins; a greater fate
Was he awarded than other drones
For this sweet son he was my own
When I made it rain, made it flood
This man he filled my seas with blood

And my love's legacy lingers still
War wages; perhaps always will
Life lacks worth to the mindless few
Still left alive; still fighting to
Attain ideals long gone, long lost
Securing strife at any cost
Radiation has mutated their 
Sweet flesh; yet they strive on, to where
They have no clue, just kill kill kill
It's what they do and always will
Alas I am content.

Reason for writing:

    Bible thumpers be forewarned the apocalypse is coming
