I’ve been asked speak to you my friends on behalf of the gentleman sitting here don’t be misled by his horned head stay calm, there is nothing to fear. Beelzebub has felt your wrath and wants to have his say he asked that as a poet divine I speak for him today. He says that crime is not his fault it wasn’t his invention he says being prince of the dark was not his first intention. He wanted to create a place where sinful pleasures rule like chocolate cake and whipping cream and pans of blueberry fool. His goal was to put together all the things we didn’t need the things that were considered as gluttony or greed. But things got out of hand he says then went from bad to worse and so he’s asked I plead his case right here in this little verse. He asks that you forgive him and grant him immunity allow him to find a home in your little community. He promises to be good as he can and do penance here on earth He’ll fight evil every chance he gets to prove to you his worth. And in conclusion, the Devil says one promise to you he’ll make if you grant him leniency he’ll grant you Devil’s Food Cake!  [This message has been edited by Poet deVine (edited 07-18-99).] |
