In the Presence of Evil – v2

Knowing without question,
this was an attack of Satan,
a man possessed by demons,
his body shaking, words spewing out…
 
In the presence of Evil,
aware of my surroundings,
yet a bit naked, exposed, his bile
singeing my flesh…
 
His face twisted, distorted,
his whole presence created,
fighting his demons, tormented,
but giving them sway…
 
Only prayer, a hedge of protection.
guarding me from within, without,
against the attack of Evil,
the lies that he spoke…
 
Out in the open, exposed,
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…
