The Revelation of John

The Devil is a red dragon

who wears seven heads

and ten horns

and seven diadems.

The Devil is a demonic human government

which wears the skins

of leopard, bear and lion—

and a fatal wound.

The Devil is a pseudo-Christ

who wears horns of a lamb

and the number of triple 6.

The Devil is upon us now.

He appears as a seductive woman

astride a scarlet beast,

wearing a name of mystery

on her forehead.

The Devil wears our sins,

the monster in the mirror

looking back at us when we slip.

Look up child,

your salvation is come.

Take it.
