Demons and Angels

Demons and angels invite themselves into our world
Horned engine red, polar opposite, adorned and pearled
Burrowed on each side, positions taken out of sight
Braced for all-out war, dueling battle, ensuing fight

Do or die, I’ll gift to you an extra day of life
Small price to pay, sign your soul, for remnants of shelf-life
Repudiate good thoughts, abruptly, without delay
Matters no further, time represents shameless decay

Clouds hover in your midst, piloting a trusted path
Plan a peaceful route; escape the final depths of wrath
Depart in solemn peace, revere nominated date
Force cancer from the ring, rest your mind for this your fate

When the end does find you resting leave the door ajar
Peace of mind will sing a song inviting you afar
Mountain peaks will form a bridge for you to reach the sky
Placed in your name, vested seat, for you to occupy.
