DEVIL'S SATIRE

I may not be on the path of God

nor a subject of His liking. 
I am not the one who got His nod,
and have always been my own king. 

I am not part of any crowd
that moves with the flow of stream. 
I am neither humble nor proud
but I'm living my own dream. 

I have treaded with the Devil
who was pure as he could be! 
I have no veil - incarnated evil, 
my dark face - my true face, it's me!

 
I may not be his veiled angel
coz' I depict the pure darkness. 
I have no shroud, one can tell
coz' I hold my own steady harness. 

I am one of those - The Fallen
yet unscathed by purity all around. 
I'm not hiding in plain sight - nor forgotten
yet far from Satan's grip or Heaven's bound.
