The Mystery of Iniquity

    “The Mystery of Iniquity”

This tale looms large, that Lucifer conceived

His God was like himself, a sort of twin,

An elder one, a massive tree that leaved

And fruited long before the swell of sin

Began to bud inside the angel’s brain,

An aching more akin to thorn than flower

Though he imagined fragrance, not a stain.

The story loses all its mythic power

As soon as normal thinking is applied,

Though.   What archangel would be such a twit?

If, standing by Jehovah’s throne, beside

Great Christ, would you be enough of a tit

To think for a moment that Satan , he,

Could trounce Almighty God? Stoooopidity.
