Some Devils

I trick myself into loving defeat,
spewing sermons at the altar.
Some devils you can't wait to meet.

Folding into purpled pleats,
I can't bring myself to fault her.
I trick myself into loving defeat.

Terror rises beneath sheets.
Normal freezes into shatters.
Some devils you can't wait to meet.

Demanding ear of the elite,
our outrage topples and totters.
I trick myself into loving defeat.

Spirit of falling sweeps the streets,
rises though again we'll falter.
Some devils you can't wait to meet.

Earth undertakes a daring feat,
smoothing broken skin with water.
I trick myself into loving defeat.
Some devils you can't wait to meet.
