“Demon”
It’s dark. Silent. Shadows are the only things around.
There’s no light, yet there’s something in the corner. Mysterious. Devious. You might even say demonic.
I’m afraid. I’m paralyzed. Even though it doesn’t move, the red glow from its eyes hypnotize me.
Will there be conflict? I pray not. It doesn’t speak. It just watches me.
I blink…. ……it’s gone.

You are right demons do not speak they watch and plan how to best attack your life. They need to be blasted out of every atom of your life. Cleanse and clear them away. This is what I do.
