The Devil's Card
By Ginger Hinson
Gossip is a demon
Created by Satan himself
When the devil reads
Shall not bear false witness,
He laughs, laughs, and laughs
He jumps in glee
When church members gossip
That's the coup deemed worthy
Of the dark endless smile lurking
Upon Lucifer's devious lips
Sin's many faces
Are frightful to glance upon,
Yet, none so exquisitely pleasing
Than seeing a faithful stumble.
Fall, Fall, Fall is his rally cheer
Gossip's daggers pierce
The victim's soul cracks, breaks
Assumptions can be deadly
Lies told can make one forsaken
God as people judge, condemn
Oh, when the congregation
Brings its own to their knees
A great cry rises from Hell
Glory be, Glory be, Glory be
They mockingly shout to Heaven
Next time your church
Stabs, murders with cruelty words
Remember Satan is watching
Laughing in your face as you
Step one inch closer to his fire
