REWARD OF THE ANGEL’S PRIDE

Once upon a clouded land
An angel held one pride
Corrupt the spirits of the angels
While he ruled the sky
The lord did ask “angel my friend,
What did you have in mind?”
Angel replied “i’ll rule the clouds
While you stand under my side.”

Angel had thus formed his army
To execute his quest
To tempt the one of higher power
Put lord to the test
The lord did say “no one allowed
To conquer upon this cloud!”
His ounce of anger turned to fury
Fueling the combat mound

Defiant battle thrust aloud
Rebellion to lord’s might
The army of the flies revolt
A mutiny for their pride
The power of the almighty one
Was none like they had know
His passion burnt their wings of feather
To reap what they had sewn

Above the clouds a burst of thunder
Cast the angel’s light
Towards the depths of earth and fire
Angel began his plight
For now he is a king and lord
In a fortress of torn lost souls
And of his flies transferred to demons
To struggle with their new lord
