This had an especially power effect on me based on my life circumstances. I agree with you one hundred percent about devils (or demons) and the way they approach the human soul. They offer so much, yet never deliver. It is indeed all an illusion. There is no rational explanation why people keep falling for the same trap over and over again, yet they do.

The meaning is a tiny bit muddled for me, ALLCREATOR, but I think it is just me on this one. Your idea here seems well sent, and your choice of words, though unclear to me, seems well presented. I think you are saying, that the devils in the world are everywhere, so disregard them, look to the good and follow that path. No?

This one is perfect, how do they say here - keep the good writing!
'Want more, more and more somehow' the gradation here is perfect.
It's a little uneasy to excuse ourselves saying 'it's the Devil doing it, it's not me' but that's the truth.

A powerful poem in such few words. Sometimes we do want and want without thinking of our consequences. I liked the Nay You! Great Job Again!

This so reminds me of children and teens.. Wanting everything they dont have and not wanting all that they do. Our world to me is consumed with wants instead of needs. You put to words great meaning and point out unfortunately, the materialistic human instead of the spiritual one. At least this is my interpretation of this writ. Snitz

How true are the words your write. You have captured the breast in ink and have delivered him for all to see his deeds. This piece like many of your writings are mind pieces that make the reader think be on the box. Your style of saying so much with so little words extraordinary. Well done. lkdunny

Anything entitled "Devils!" will kick ass, as does this piece. I liked the double exclamation point after "illusion". I never liked excamation points as I thought they were corny. But it is used well here.
