           End Game

There is a place, an evil abode
That fallen angels haunt,
It’s entrance is a deep dark well
Where blasphemous prayers are chaunt.

From deep within the labyrinths depths
Ring echo’s of grief and woe,
The cry’s are born of sorrow and shame
That rise from tormented souls.

Satan’s friars gather around the rim
To chant their unholy songs,
And gaze into the lake of blood
To which their prayers are drawn.

Their master watches from his den
Atop his fiery throne,
Wrenching souls from their graves
He calls his servants home.

God sees all from his hallowed seat
And gives not a troubled sign,
With a sigh he slowly turns his head
And patiently checks the time.
