"devilry" poems
Sailors, chanters and politicians Proselytize our new dimensions Warriors, weavers and priest-drawn blood Sanctify our new haven. The sun comes up We chop wood Toolerize and gamify our fun Still the same man under the same sun. And for millennia The new is suppressed Marked as devilry To keep us meek. Feeling crazy today Going to have my say But first I'll impregnate The Chief's chief lay.

Rebellion
Gathered in a dark night, Because there lies fantasy of the final judge, my beloved servant, The skyline set before a calm sunset is a clear memory, stained. Like flowers, we rise and fall through life's misery. Dream on- I love you, my dear servant, cling on to my wings, For a world we see is true, what we manifest, is simply true devilry, What I'll build you is a castle of crystal starlight. Ready the flames of misery, slice through fate and shape the world, My devil's angel, lean on to me, be by my side, Ah, take hold of me and fly with me, through this spring dream, Ah, believe our dream and don't let go; and I tie our fates, Ah, the answer sought by this world's end is but a mystical square, Ah, cascade through this thrilling, lingering, sweet darkness, I will fill it with falling stars; like the snowfall to make it brighter, Forgotten by heaven and hell, a kingdom forms in pandemonium, Voving affection, does not only lead us to light, but will save all, Take my hand, for the love of light is for all to bear. ~ Umi

The Last Judgement (2)
Shrek is love, I told them, Shrek is dreck, they answer. So I make this poem, to give them the cancer. Shrek is life, I’m groaning, while they’re battering me. I don’t care, I’m flying, over the devilry. I don’t care that I bleed, because my Shrek is here. I know he’s behind me, with strong ogre muscles. He will venge what they did, and feel them with sweet fear. Stronger than an army, he’s only leaving skulls. But what if he succumbs, what if he expires ? No, you cannot get him, he is stronger than God. Wonder from where he comes, maybe he pulls the wires. The bullies were all gone, thanks to my green best friend. And just for all he’s done, friendship does never end. Shrek is love, Shrek is life, and Shrek is everywhere.

A Shrek Story
I will rise, Rise to paradise again Spread my wings, free from any chain, With only one goal in my eyes I look to the sky Then I rise, yes I will rise From the hellfire, no matter the price May I burn Take my turn But then it will surely be my time to shine The beauty of the heavens will surely be mine I will not stand these flames, Embrace my devilish distorted wings See what good that may brings One last judgement On this long lasting journey I will rise, rise, no matter the price A future dawns dream, draws near Make it clear In this realm of art and devilry Heartfelt dream scapes shape the mirror In a world so dark that the stars will blind- Refuse to fall! Forgotten by both Heaven and Hell A craft of hearts forms my kingdom! Take my hand, all ye pariah souls- The love of light is for all to bear! ~ Umi

Fallen
Hidden in the ultraviolet, Unseen by most yet to be forgotten by both heaven and hell, Memories from the futures dawn, luxury of darkness, Spin the wool and weave the fate, this world end's by my own hand, Break loose of the lies and get lost within legendary illusions A world so dark, the stars so blind an alluring form refuses to fall, Rise, from the fire hell can't hold and is afraid of, Spread the wings and soar beyond the scene, the art of demonicy The holiest war is waged of what our hearts are made, Do you nest in what you feel or have felt in this realm of devilry ? After the mirror shows you all the truths you desire, Deceived by your eyes, who do you want to trust ? The last judgement ends with a long journey, The nights luxury relies within my own hand, take it! And maybe then, I will lead you to the light your heart cries out for. After all, the love for it is for all to engage in. ~ Umi

The Devils World
. Kalypso sports within the waves luring sailors to watery graves but if they make it to her isle there they may tarry for a while. Food and wine are given a'plenty, they are rocked into lust so gently, Nymph, Maidens, Bacchanalian revelry lead the sailors into darkest devilry. *** and sin are openly displayed, a salacious procession, ***** parade, And all men their vices expressed seek the comfort of Kalypso's breast, her hospitality soothes, allays their fears as she slowly steals away their years. © Pagan Paul (05/12/18)

Kalypso
Ignorance is such a beautiful thing, But oh how toxic it can be. You poisoned my mind with words of beauty, Songs of joy my heart did sing, But now that I know the truth, Your reputation has been tainted. How perfect a picture of deceit you painted. Your behavior is (for a lack of a better word) uncouth. Some warned that trusting you would be unwise, But an underlying dissonant chord grew. Maybe deep down I always knew, But you spout such symphonious lies. You devoured my helplessness in a bite so vicious, But I wanted to live in my reverie, I didn’t believe the tales of your devilry. To my morality I’ve become oblivious. My rationality has become a hindrance. How can I be wrong if I did not know? The only thing now (even as it seems impossible) is to let go, But never will I forget the beauty of my ignorance.

In My Ignorance
You Are untamed Reckless blood and wit intertwined A twisted, brazen
 mind. Your mind Is so clearly different It leaps and soars, so acrobatic And your thoughts appear to me so hazy and enigmatic Your mind is simply not pragmatic Yet your perception knows no bounds. You have thoughts that come close to insanity That sometimes flow in the form of profanity.    Your spirit Is either very high or very low Up and down, to and fro There is no in between for you Some say you are stupidly crazy The dull ones say that, the ones too lazy To see beyond the rugged surface. The subdued and vapid ones Will never understand the magnetism Of your sweet, exquisite devilry. On your face you often wear A fierce and restless stare A wan, discontented expression As though you're always awaiting Something bigger, Something better. You Are fluid, swaying fire And I will never tire Of watching you burn I can see you brain boil and churn As it reels into into areas of
 madness and chaos. Your psyche Is an endless field of dark reverie, Of fear and vagary. I know your night terrors Your savage dreams of death Screams and bated breath Unutterable visions The grotesque world of horror thats spins itself out And dribbles into your drawings All those creatures, skeletons gnashing and clawing... You Are gentle and thoughtful Yet you are terrified Of this dark thing that sleeps within you. Your eyes - they’re stunning They’re tempestuous, Wild, like some fierce animal peering out of a rusted cage Oh, your eyes They are something beautiful, but annihilating Like Autumn crocus flowers, innocently poisonous Lids splaying delicately like its violet leaves. You are tall and strong And uncontrollable, And your smile Is the biggest paradox I've ever encountered Childlike And fatal. You are not A creature of the commonplace You are not a slave of the ordinary You are not a mindless drudge of the mundane You are free. Or bewitched, what's the difference

Today, I sent out at least another 10 advertisements of myself. It’s not fair. These potential employee seeking companies show me at least a thousand ads boasting about themselves, but I only got the time to send out a fraction of their words, and it’s somehow bad taste to show off my handsomeness. No pictures at all, just boring words, competing against the tacky hordes of plastic signs, overt lies, and labeled every things. I don’t even get any screen time, and if I could even afford it, they’d think I over did it. So I can’t use any ****** tricks to show my fluency in PR devilry? Y’all hypocrites.

Here is "Me" (now high fructose free!)
If you shot me with your gun I wonder- if it would make me feel..? You have had me tossed caressing what was once zaftig and turned simply into "oh, that one". I wonder- if your mental switch-ery makes me ideal? After everything you have said, tearing away that of mine which you find superfluous and overdone; I wonder- if I could ever heal? But, regardless, you have had your devilry and grotesque fun, When you took that shot through me with your ****** gun. I can now fathom what it means to feel. I can now realize that this pain is what makes it all real.

Feel breath upon milky neck give yourself the sacrifice for unchained paradise and the gifts of life. Thrusting forth upon such shapely form the rise of golden **** and the glide of swollen ******* such feline majesty such magnificence of deviance. Lay hands on nubile skin deft and swift precision straddled in muscular passion the reins like a flowing mane gracing the arched spine in pleasure. Tilted head stretched exposed form catching dancing shadows in the eternal midnight. Call my name as if a name were a pulse wave of unreserved expletives. The chastity of yesterday innocence lost in devilry offered freely like a gift to the gods empower revelry chemically. ****** Deeper** Give Give Give again and again and again and again and again and again and... No refrain awash in pagan sweat doused and dripping wet revel in cobalt aquas close in the rise of final exaltation the Alpha stanza. BOP/bop BOP/bop hearts beat out of time heaving breath encased in bone and heated skin consumed in the juices of forever and the pleasure of pagan archaic sin.

This senseless self-preoccupation sends me straight to Hell and I can’t tell if it’s your fault or mine it’s fine either way, I’m not sure I care at this point I’m just tired of every piece of my life feeling so painfully out of joint my heart conjoined with assumed opinions and criticism that even Satan would call excessive And I push you away like you put this on me that you expect me to be just like everybody else or maybe that perspective veils the reality that I know I was made for more than this ******* away my time and energy worrying about if I measure up to what you expect of me I mean, you want me to look like your firstborn son how can I even begin to measure up to that after everything I’ve done? or at least this is the tape I run repeatedly in my head And in a way it’s like I dread hearing anything besides it because if I hear a different sound I’m bound to bigger responsibility and I’m pushed to the brink And I find myself sinking beneath the terrible thought that you’re disappointed in me That you find me disgusting and can’t wait to be rid of me But while I’m making self-pity my revelry I so often fail to see the devilry of my thoughts not catching that I’m thinking way more highly of my brokenness than I ought and we’ve fought over this more times than I can count, I know. God, how many more times do you have to show me that the way I think just doesn’t work? How many more times will you remind me I’m not loved because it’s earned? That Jesus took on the curse that I deserved I’ve read and heard the story a thousand times even though I forget it at the drop of a dime so remind me again, I don’t have to try so hard to be the son you want and that... you’re not nearly as far away from me as I think you are

Circa 2005 & for some reason, (unbeknownst to me) they trusted a student with the keys to the high school auditorium. Two, thick, metal keys engraved with three words that would tempt the whole of my disguised devilry: 1. DO 2. NOT 3. COPY Eve to fruit Pandora to box Me— to a couple of squeaky doors. I’d hush you as we teetered the catwalk. We’d speak in whispered contraband. Forbidden acts in the high up off-limits. “The taxpayers don’t have to know.” There was something so fine about making self-discoveries in the untouched spaces above the lights.

Do you dare dabble in unknown power To crush any decrepit enemy Who foolishly tries to flee and cower From your unrivaled, profound devilry? Will you wager your own fateful demise, Even though your sanity's quite terrorized At the atrocious nightmares you create Which none can fathom, yet you celebrate? They've nowhere to retreat from this downfall You've wreaked upon their sordid sanctity! Now, what they must heed is the final call Of their imperative fatality! Suffering in this agonizing Hell, They'll spend the rest of eternity.

A Sonnet for Maleficent Woe
Like an animal of the night, my wolf spirit chases, An exquisite insanity, one in which I revel, A slow prey with poisonous blood and sweat, with three faces That, when caught, it whispers to me frailly, in hope to bedevil. One face spits drunk and boiled spillage, This one barks passionately without end. The stock face of an accepted devilry, an advantage, And an addictive **** that it lets out, a disadvantageous blend. The other two look normal, but they rarely make sounds, The deranged smoker is a thinker, a dying fool, While the one in charge listens, teaches and knows, While it fights with the other two. The prey never runs away, but it sickly comes back to taunt my soul. It tries to enthrall me with its black art, knowing my weaknesses by heart, Sometimes I catch the prey, to which I whisper: “Feel my spit, black like a coal, Never come back, you better hide, you haven’t seen yet my crazy part.” And with a magical schism the prey splits And hungry for adrenaline, my spirit chases them

The Great Schism
All land begins underneath these feet: a merry makebelieve. Jump and catch a glimpse of Arabia in red, Birkenhead in yellowish-grey, Berlin's fading rainbow.. all lacking in depth like floaters, like foreign pain, like your very first birthday. Don't they? Spend days in suspension, don't you? Well, look around! You see ahead and back are much the same when all is round. And all IS round! Unless of course, you're on the ground where a single wave can **** Doubtless fun, boundless thrill, all but for a price! Here even cloudy sunsets imply sacrifice. And at nights perfect darkness never dwells, Some devilry always tells the time in mocking ways: Jump and you're on holidays, divorced from all necessity, sleeping in the sun for days an altogether different beast, electrified, with sandbagged veins. At least not dead, I hear you say. How cute.. Alas! the price you pay for being oh so futile is per se a snide; So pick your cherries and throw them in that tide! You know the lights in this harbour never return in a straight line May craft and the shimmering power not let you be the fog in the rye, or the rock's inside. You are round and everything is your equal. So consider your battles well.

Cons of Permanent Vacation
I had the bottle I had the well I had the population and the cold interest in consequences. So simple: tip it in, see what happens. But it would have been too obvious. I was not interested in being caught. It gnawed at me, for all my polished indifference, the knowledge of the power I wielded but could not use Then one day strangers came, rolling into the village in their painted caravans And I wasted not one second. As soon as the moon was full I crept out through the villagers' suspicious mutterings, unseen by the baleful glances cast at the foreign shapes and colours - forgotten, in all my oddness, in the wake of this new devilry. It was the work of a moment, a soft sound like summer's rain then back to the shadows to wait. And now, riding past the lynch-mob's clumsy justice, circled by merry crows, briefly entranced by a burnt-out caravan I can finally enjoy the silence.

Hand-Me-Down Corpse...
I wonder what it'd be like having to be darkness's son, What if I was really the devil himself and what if I had a double? Terrorizing the subjects of darkness all the time I'd relish, Ignoring the other ladies I come to your heaven for some peace. Tired I'm if of all this devilry and feel exhausted so I need rest, My double will then impersonate me playing my role where I can't.
