Exceptional

Your approach is unusual :

If only the Devil would be so outspoken ...instead God's favourite angel who chose to rebel and fell, works his ways through this world in the shadows...he has been so successful, that many don't even believe he is real and if he doesn't exist nor does God, lots state.

More people every day are becoming atheist..they live their lives as if this is all there is and so they just want to get the best out of it .. money, sex , drugs, ..they have no moral compass or brotherly love for a neighbour..

I still liked your poem..it does point out one truth ...that if we choose to lie we will end up in ......well..oopppsss hell.

I hope you enjoy your Sunday , amico mio.

Ciao !

CIAO TEMPESTE: Thank you. Now that I've heard from you...I shall enjoy my Sunday. Tempeste, the devil, "IS," so out spoken. He exposes Himself with every word he says. It's just that you and I can interpret his dialect. We can see straight through it. Just by what you've said here...it is manifest that you, "KNOW," who Satan, (our enemy) is. He's the reason why more people every day are becoming atheist. People like you and I are wise to that because our God has given us the wisdom of: Second Timothy chapter 3. Thank you, Jesus. Tempeste, please tell me, what does, "amico mio," mean? I love the way it sounds.
mean? I

Interesting choice of subject for Halloween. I guess that of all the ghouls and monsters that inhabit the imagination on night in question, Satan takes the lead role. A cautionary tale for the little kids - the big ones, too.

I like how you play with multiple symbols in this little poem and even if the subject is very serious you manage to sneak in some funny elements like here for example :""Just remember...the lies people tell...
They'e gonna go...straight to.....well..."

"So...lest you come with me and fry...
Tell the truth...don't you lie."
Thank you for sharing.

I find you repetition here -- "lie" and "liar" is repeated six times -- well suited to the theme. It's almost as though the poem is a clock ticking, waiting for the moment the reader commits the lie that will damn them {thumbs up}.

Wishing you the best of luck with the contest judging committee {smiles}.
