I inquire as to the feelings of demons, who know I hold no fear of them. On the day within the hours that I face them, I will stare them down from beneath their colossal shadows, and accuse them of their illusions and my words will be salt upon the lands they tread. Stained will I be, with the fluids of warfare, while those shades make haste to drown me in darkness beneath black wings, which seek to rob me further of the light beyond each and all of them. My smiles will dishearten them, showing them that which they see as evil, as stand sword in hand sporting worn, rusted armor. I bear no empathy for the flesh in which I bury that blade, for it is the dermis of demons.

I will be crippled in those days from the longest days before that beat me for purpose, and hence will my smiles be a tad crooked...all the better for instilling the fear I once felt when I had no sword or armor, deeply past the flesh in where my blade will be buried. For though this soul is worn like its armor by the acidic rains of its given timeline, I will be more alive and well on that day than ever before that my soul has known. I have walked with God and His poets, like the innumerable souls before and after my own, and I continue with that same God and His poets through every valley, in every shadow, of all that is known to the living as Death.

Slumber shall be the blade in its sheath in the era of endless peace that my once forsaken soul will relish within, sharing in unison with souls of all of existence. It is written, as it was once told and spoken to this day, that I walk with a God of Wisdom who takes away question and delivers answer. Who removes Hell and expands Heaven, for His is the eternal grace and power with which to do so. With that in mind and forever engraved into my saved soul, I openly inquire, with my awakened sword firmly in hand, as to the feelings of demons who know the name of my God and how deeply it is seeded within my utmost being. I am one of His many beloved children, and no evil shall I ever fear.
