A little Devil sits upon my shoulder.
Day by day, his little voice grows bouler.

He wispers ideas into my head,
until all reason is gone or dead.

Wonderful adventures he promises to me,
like sailing across an open sea.

But painful lies is all he tells,
why can't I tell him to go back to Hell?

Does part of me like to hear him speak?
Is part of me really that weak?

Do I really like doing things that are wrong?
Do I really like hearing his song?

I guess it must be that I really don't know,
why it is I can't let him go.

Its and odd sort of deal between us two,
and I'm sure he also has a seal worked out with you.

Isn't it strange how we hate what is wrong,
but somehow all listen to that same Devils song?

We all have our weak areas and some we are willing to let go of and some we want to hold onto a little longer and some are quite strong...James

I have had battles with this devil and prevailed.......I hope to continue my winning streak.
Nicely done.



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Very thoughtful, but aren't we glad that there's another voice. Our conscience? We need a deaf ear and a wide open one. Joyce
