Demons

And they don't stop
All the pestering lies
Love confusion
And make sadness their prize.

Away with you!
Be gone, untrue!
The demons vie
The demons lie.

Made of half-truth
Full of frivolous spite
Mean accusers
Seek to dim and kill light.

Away with you!
Be gone, untrue!
The demons vie
The demons lie.

Crushing my lungs
Teasing cowards steal my breath in sleep
Jealous of flesh
They try to pry into my temples, my deep.

Second guesses tangle reason with mud
Dam all pathways with cerebral crud.
Endless doomsday,
Horses red, black, and pale,
Wars and losses,
Death in detail.

Rise, my mind, envision greater orbits.
Find the calm by the steady star above night.
O logic sweet! O reason's fleet!
More be with me than be with thee!

Laying traps to
Catch me in my words
And seek offenses.
Evil counterfeits compassion
And love.

Mal den Teufel nicht an die Wand.
Devils rage enough outside.

In a mask or
Shielded only by face
Sacred refuge
Stands inside its sure place.

Away with you!
Be gone, untrue!
The demons vie,
The demons lie.

Deceivers, fear
The white horse here.
Dismissed are you!
No more ado!
