The devil hides to slowly intrude
He heightens the pleasure to murder the mood
He cuts out desire to watch as it bleeds
Intrudes on the soul as he plants all his seeds

He cages the goodness in cell somewhere lost
To feed us with visions that someday will cost
Allows us temptation and sins of his make
So when it’s all over, our soul he can take

Your words hit home. There is not 1 word I would ever change on this poem

Poetry is just the evidence of life.
If your life is burning well, poetry is just the ash. "
