I Am Every Devil

A truth and a lie, reality and fantasy, heaven and hell... they all intersect at some point.

 

I will be the black

Within your smile

When you crack that insult

Behind the mirrors back.

 

I will be the red

That stains your hands

Every time you lose your grip

On the grasp of substance.

 

I will be the blue

That clots your veins

If your heart skips a beat

For that song out of tune with life.

 

You best close your eyes

So you can see the truth,

Cause even the color blind can see

That I am every devil

That will leave you to freeze in heaven

If you cling to all my theories.

YIKES.........The devil is in the details - every one of them!
Great write which should give us reason to question whose theories we trust!
