Light bringer, most loved

Now banished to ever be

Corrupter of souls

Hard to imagine we need help with that. Kind of a stark reminder and retelling. I really like it🖤

Once His most favored

Black feathers stripp’d from on high

Bare feet, scarlet prints

I like this a lot, it’s almost tender. But then, you are very good at taking a hard thing and making it soft 🖤

I'm a Lucifer

Why don't you kill me, baby?

At your beck and call

A play on the light bringer? I like the take if so🖤

Yes, and also a play on Beck, the singer. From the early 90s: "I'm a loser, baby, why don't you kill me?"

His tormented soul

Sees her eyes of burning coal

Flesh ignites, consumes

Yeah, still sort of holds up even today. Plays on free movie apps like Pluto and Tubi etc.

The flick you’re referring to, is a really cool trippy ‘80s flick!

Cold, the ice cuts deep

Chained to Hell's frozen abyss

Warmth, the ice gives way

Lord of dark, rise, claim bitter vengeance

Decided to 5,7,5,9 for this one!

Bold move. But I can’t imagine Lucifer sticking with the rules either, so we’ll played.😈 I like this a lot, it’s got a very epic feel.

Rules are meant to be broken! What else are they there for? Glad you like it. 😁

What I really love about your poems is that I’m always wrong about them. It speaks to your versatility I think. Any way, I love the last line, I can imagine it being spoken by either God or Lucifer.
