Devil’s Incarnate

Listen, Devil’s Incarnate
Some call, "le diable incarné"
Others point, "Diavolul întrupat,"
To many, you're 'serpiente'
Listen carefully
You beast
Read my lips, if you can
Better still,
Look at my face, stern
Confidence you lack
I speak with faith
Not your kind of faith
No, no, rapscallion
You Devil’s incarnate
Offspring of the beast
In robe, you rob souls
Pompous, egotistical impostor
Vainglory, Selfish growler
Delusions of importance
Too ashamed to unveil
Show your real identity
Or to flaunt true lineage
Sullen, sadistic, sullage
Devil’s Incarnate
Your time of invasion over
Irrevocably over, failure
We’re sailing, rising further
You cruelly robbed us; burglar
Did take a lot from me
Keep your tiny victory
Armored, I say this in your face
Hear me, “You’re disgusting!”
You’ll suffer the agony of defeat.
For viciousness, selfishness, pains
Migraines, injury of your reigns
Your darkness, long transposed
Agony, exposure, disruptions
Yours, and your cohorts; lowlife
We are in the light; steady peace
Beautiful family, friends, at ease
Filled with joy, freedom from strife
Hear this, 'siamo Benedetti!'
And listen Devil’s incarnate
Pay heed, you ingrate
This is a limited time offer, hellion!
“Sit quietly, show compunction
Or face the wrath.”
“Tuck your tail, Devil’s Incarnate.”
Or, the axe falls at once.”
You’ll be openly exposed, unwelcomed
Such disgrace, you’ll regret
Shred you forever apart, crumbed.
And your allies will abscond!

Happy Birthday

I’ll sing Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday to me!
I sing with joy
Not just for one year
But for my existence
Persistence,subsistence
And my substance
For the memories of days
Of years gone by
Ah, the paths and trails
Faded, bold Footprints
The moments, events
All parts of history
Spiral pages of my story
Some glowingly calculated
Others, unavoidably imposed
The joy, pains, warm tears
What a blend of years
And for the moments here
As well as the days near
Plus the years ahead
I embrace with ease
With unwavering faith
For I know, and believe
This is my season
Another beautiful round
Continuation of my story
An extraordinary history!

Re: AST

What is AST
That I've tried to grasp
It's good, and that
Yes, that's what I'm told
The one talked about
But is it the same one bout to roll
What is really AST

Now I will ask
Is it right?
I have my doubts
Right from onset
It sounds wrong
Obscure, crafty, most super
Supreme, powerful than all
Then there's this prodding
"There's no harm," then
The warning, the very same first
"No, No, let no man be measured..."
Also another, "believe!"

So I sit here and plead
If it's not right, please
Mend the wrong
Make it right easily
Let it be beautifully done
Make haste
My one, earnest plead
