1)
They pretend to be lambs
shy sheepish sweet
showing no glimpse
of the demon in disguise
hiding like an imp
waiting to strike
consume and devour
coyly return
with the smiling face of a flower.
They’re predators in camouflage
with 20/20 vision in nerdy spectacles
pretending impotency
invalidness and sunken chest
no one would ever guess
the Hannibal Lechter inside.
2)
Ted Bundy’s eyes
went cauldron black
right before he’d attack.
Alien demon-serpent-like surprise
full of wicked lies
wearing geeky lawyer bow ties.
Often he pretended he was hurt
with his arm in a sling
with an iron crowbar waiting
Good people can’t conceive of evil
their kind hearts are too naive to imagine torture.
Stranger danger Jack the Ripper serial killers.
Drugs let demons in like a portal
stealing mind body and soul.
3)
Celebrities are elaborate shells
that house psychotic alter egos
or maybe they’re cloned
as breathing soulless robot slaves
made to order literally
as living mannequin droids?
4)
But I believe
Good people will eventually win
because their pure hearts
are free of criminal sin.
Good people don’t have to be perfect
they just have to care about life
and try to help, not hurt others, that’s all.
Goodness is natural, authentic
unselfconscious and true.
Ego is fear of not being, or ever having enough
artificial phoney acting lies.
Elites overcompensate with narcissism
Racing through speed bump bodies of victims
people are only obstacles to them.
Narcissism isn’t self-love
it’s a one person planet of ME.
5)
Antiheroes from books are a fantasy not reality
Murderers will hate and rape you
no matter how nice you are to them.
Stay away from devils
Loving them won’t change
the emptiness inside
They’ll attack you for no reason
they take pride in it
hurting others is their pleasure.
Don’t try to heal them it’s not up to you.
Just do your best to resonate with the good.
I’m starting to think
to a certain extent
The Matrix and They Live
were documentaries.
Yes, stay away from devils.
Dostoevsky in some of his novels showed what devils in human form were like.

I used to be “too nice” tried to help disturbed people but there’s a phrase to “not fight with demons lest you become one” (my intention to help was disastrous). I haven’t yet read Dostoevsky but I’m always thinking I should.

He certainly had profound insights into human personalities and human nature.
How some people acted in ways that could only be described as diabolical.

So true. Love this poem. i really like the bit about Ted Bundy’s eyes too. He would also have a really foul, rotting smell coming from him when his eyes turned black. I pray for these people (not Ted) and keep thinking there is hope for them, that they are not as bad as I, and other people think they are…etc. I can’t comprehend the evil sometimes. Psychopaths are careful to show themselves as benign, harmless and of course, charming.

I didn’t know about the embodiment of evil smell, that makes sense, death is disease, it’s foul and anti-life. I think he was probably possessed. I’ve heard the same black eyed description about other killers too, it’s as if they were channeling evil, no excuse but it explains the depravity. I was afraid of him when I was a child because my sister warned me about him and made me read a biography about him. Serial killers seem like an aspect of the 70s, horrific as it sounds.

Yes, serial killers were sort of ‘in fashion’ in the seventies. They were the boogiemen of the era. Now it’s pandemics.

I think it’s a form of Stockholm syndrome how some women had crushes on Bundy, one even married him and had a child with him while he was in prison. Serial killers were “in fashion” then and I think still. The pandemics are very depressing me, people are mistrustful of each other now because of the fear.
