Spinning a web of deceit

good and evil come in equal measure. 1st Place Winner COLORING THE WORLD CONTEST Rnd.74

Spinning a web of deceit

Spinning a web of deceit
Satan lured Eve and Adam
Away from the bliss
Of God, the Almighty’s Paradise.

The legacy of evil and lies
Harassed the mortal world since,
Created a hell on earth
Catching the mankind

In never-ending gyres
Of deceit and deprivation
Of greed and jealousy,
Of unhealthy competition.

History shows its inevitability.
Where goodness resides,
There evil too dwells.
The two lie side by side.

The world thrives at times
On the fodder of deceit
Contraries exist
So the survival lasts.

Even lies have purposes.
