The Devil's Booksmarts

A Story by Abishai100
"

Wry/offbeat tale of incomplete-distances readings of Earth's 'troubles' for veils of darkness and enduring human-realm curiosity about self-invention.

"
An inventive yarn about manmade bureaucracy-falls, inspired by Superpower (Sean Penn). Enjoy (and thanks so much for reading),

I traveled to Eastern Europe (Ukraine) during the Invasion for a special photo 'rich' journal in this new millennium of varied trek-tribulations of the spirit, and I'd no anticipation that I'd be engaged by Lucifer, prince of darkness (Satan, the Devil), for my Selfie-age of incomplete-distances readings of leviathan/uncertainty!



LUCIFER: The Earth's grey-skies language arts, photo-prince!
ME: You wish to add to the fire with some Iago-adverb, Satan?
LUCIFER: Why not...a kidnapping may entice a brooding housewife?
ME: A woman awaiting with earnest-angst for the return of her hubby-soldier?
LUCIFER: Isn't sports of Earth mentalism one of adventurism 'arts' for books?
ME: That's clever, Satan...but we Earthlings have 'fare' for manmade dowry.
LUCIFER: Leviathan (Selfie-like)?



I made for 'discovery' that Satan/Lucifer (the Devil!) really had been somewhat pensive and wry, like Dracula (himself!) about spice-adds to Earthling fields of troubles and end zones of manmade-hell (damn). I wondered why he made himself known to me, but I guessed he wanted some social media 'adverb' for my proposed/projected photo-journal (Facebook-like!).



GIRLFRIEND: Irish-curry stew for Saint Patrick's Day (ha).
ME: Sounds-dialysis for leviathan of Earth/uncertainty, lady-angel (thanx!).
GIRLFRIEND: Did you find answers in the Urals or Ukraine?
ME: Not really...I did find hospitality's charms for inventive cleat secrets of hell.
GIRLFRIEND: Quiet-cool (good).
