The Devil

Was it just a dream?

We went to see the devil last night
It was at a very odd stop
We drove down a road I do not know
And stopped so suddenly
I hardly felt the car move

I only went along because of what you said.
You said he had mentioned me on your last visit.
Why would he do so.
I thought our deal was done
That ancient serpent that once slithered through my door

Onto the the roof of the car and
Into the cleft we crawled.
I tried to stay hidden but I felt his heart leap with joy
He spoke to you but I felt him sniffing out my presence
I watched him smile as he turned his eyes towards me

You got frustrated because you felt that he was distracted
I was amazed however. We spoke with our eyes.
He said to me "You are still mine"
Of course I denied it
I owe him nothing.
All of a sudden he had his cold sweaty hand round my neck

He smiled revealing perfectly aligned teeth
And beautiful green eyes
I shut my own before I could drown in them
"Welcome home. I have missed you"
He whispered.
I don't remember leaving
