— The main thing is that it sounds good.
"A demon hides — a devil is frightened,
It feels the fiery gaze.
Shamefully it runs, covering itself, the scoundrel,
Hiding its shameful disgrace.
It steps to the left — and there is a pillar of light,
To the right — golden seas.
It doesn't even know where to run,
The ghoul is completely cornered.
The smell of flowers fills its nostrils,
The monster only wrinkles its nose.
And a voice is heard — so many gentle words,
And its legs give way.
But now, before the devil, She appears,
And it only retreats.
Beautiful, bright, like a star,
Only the unholy is not happy about it.
Embraces close in — the devil emits a squeal,
It trembles, shrinks, puffs.
But soon it burns and crumbles down,
Even it was loved — even if only for a moment."
Lord, how I hate poetry. And why did I even take on this quest?
