The Devil and me

Listening to some old Louisiana blues and got in the mood to write this. Enjoy!

       Well, I walk down through the muddy Bayou

  And see a Music man pickin' there

     The music sounds so right to my ears

  So he offered to give me a how-to

He picked up a wooden guitar and threw it my way

   I gave it a pluck or two

With a swish of his hand I was playing like good 'ole Mister Johnson

  I looked at him with not much to say

      His eyes grew as dark as a stormy sky

 And his voice grew deeper than a Bass

    He told me I owed him my soul

 His guitar no longer sounded like a lullaby 

  Fire flew from his mouth and he grinned with sharp teeth

    I stood up and tried to run

 My feet were glued to the Bayou mud like it was concrete

    I guess I gotta deal with livin' underneath

You are very good at giving details to stories; they become alive in readers' mind. This should be made into a song.

[Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot]

Thank you so much :) I was actually thinking of putting it in a song. Who kniws, it may become famous.

Anything dark is a welcome read in my world! Absolutely love this, different from other devil encounters I've read about ha ha!

[Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot]

lol thanks ^*^ I went by the different encounters you read in these louisianin stories on how these music artists, bob dylan for example, sold their sole to the devil. I was listening to some of that type of music, and out this came ^*^ I'm so glad you liked it.

[EMMIE]

Yeah that's a good inspiration. I'm going to NOLA next week. I hope I don't sell my soul to that music man lol
