Angels and Devils


angels and devils

play together

until the devil wins all

and angels are no more


rules and regulations

bend and break

no more camaraderie

no more best mate


the greed causes poverty

poverty divides

love dies hate wins out

guns and knives are out


liars and cheaters take control

loyalty and fidelity not in vogue

as moral codes crack laws ignored

society disintegrates we need more than hope


fingers crossed full circle will come

when angels will be reborn

the devil cursed

and love will heal the world.

Powerful piece Jes, style I like, the short sentence, four line verses adds impact and pause thereby making the number of wrongs, problems more apparent. Thank you
