In the Presence of Evil

Knowing without question,
This was an attack of Satan,
His body shaking, words spewing out…
 
In the presence of Evil,
Aware of my surroundings,
Yet a bit naked, exposed, for his bile…
 
His face twisted, distorted,
His whole presence created,
Fighting his demons, but giving them sway…
 
Only prayer, a hedge of protection.
Guarding me from within, without,
Against the attack of Evil…
 
Chains he carried, pulling his body,
Outside the cave, the walls,
The prison of his body…
 
In the presence of Evil,
Aware of my surroundings, exits,
Yet a bit naked, exposed, for his bile
His flaming arrows of Satan…

In guttural utterances
https://raymondafoss.blogspot.com/2024/07/in-guttural-utterances.html
Demon-possessed man attacked me verbally
while I tried to have dinner-break last night at work…
He claimed to be a black-Irish leprechaun, a unicorn,
from Brooklyn, a former coroner from Miami,
recently released from prison. His banter was
phrases from super-hero, anti-hero dystopia
and horror films, at least in part…
&
I tried not to engage him, not to give more oxygen to the evil
emanating from his words. I knew instantly that this wasn't
an attack from him, but was an attack from Satan, that demons
had control of his spirit. Strange to be aware in the moment.
I know that sounds strange but I am certain. The way his jaw moved
side to side, the way he went from speaking in riddles to grunts and
a word-bile rising from deep down his throat was ugly.

be courageous; be strong. Do everything in love.”
