A Demon's Death

my madness bane  
is an eyesore  
   
the powers that be  
howl out their distress  
I've arrested all demons  
   
put them on lock down  
chained & silenced them  
   
with a Thorazine drip  
they shuffle about  
without rage or bite  
   
witness them cry  
tears of the voiceless  
   
I take pity on them now  
let them have reprieve  
be free from this body  
   
scatter to the winds  
take hold where you might  
delusions & fits of insanity  
will not be welcomed here  
   
take your pain  
to the streets    
where it thrives  
   
yes Lucifer still lives  
in the desolation of his people  
   
take comfort in the nod  
of the heroin addicts  
there you will get the relief you seek  
   
this host is healed  
   
you need your drugs  
go easy legion  
   
addiction is the pestilence  
that trained me    
to be a soldier of the finest order  
   
you taught me well  
how to maneuver in the dark  
   
I spilled your ink  
drank the liquor    
from the dragon's mouth  
   
dined on the fat maggots  
that ate the flesh of the weak  
   
a fire will soon be coming through  
burn you where you stand  
   
I see you    
you don't move about undetected  
TAKE LEAVE OR SEE MY FACE!
