Devil's Dance


The rain pours down,
Red drops from a brilliant red sky.

Each drop reverberates....
Calling all cold-blooded creatures
To come alive.
Slithering snakes....
Copulating Turtles....
Throbbing lizards....
Dead Men.

The drops fall on deserts of dried blood,
Soaking up the evil of ages,
And forming pools of scarlet sins.
Religion,caste,war,sex.....
They all dissolve.

Hearts that had stopped beating
Once more filled with desire.
Ah ! The air so promiscous.....
Ensnares the mind.
It pains....to breathe.

The world celebrates in one big orgy.
The rain dances down,
Red drops from a brilliant red sky.
The Dance Of The Devil!!!!!

your image of a reddened world smelling rain...awesome.
from hated reptiles to men cold with death...indeed the rain sprinkles on them a frash lease of life.
but, my friend , one doubt remains...what about the beautiful patches of the world,will the rain shine them brighter..or will heavy wetness droop their spirits?
