Lucifer\'s Flaw

On a night when the stars were bright

Prince Lucifer rose in disdain

Tired of his dark domain, he took flight

Above the Earth, in cloud-covered disdain

 

He looked down upon the sinners below

Clutching their specters of repose

Their souls, mere prey to his prideful show

As he soared above, his anger arose

 

From the western wing to Africa\'s sands

His massive form careened with pride

And his shadow, like a looming demand

Darkened the Arctic snows far and wide

 

He soared through zones with scars of old

A memory of his revolt against the divine

Reaching a height, he gazed at stars bold

And in their brilliance, he began to decline

 

Around him, the ancient track of law

Marched in unalterable ranks, so raw

The army of heaven\'s unyielding draw

Reminding him of his eternal, fateful flaw. (\"Lucifer\"s Flaw\") by Courtney Weaver Jr.
