March 18, 2014
Welcome to a special Tuesday edition of In The Demon's Head, I decided over the weekend that I'm going to begin offering a new bonus for signing up for the Demon's Head mailing list but I'll explain that a little more later. Today I'd like to start off by offering up a view of today's picture and a piece to follow it.

Mine To Bear
It's mine to bear,
It's always been mine,
I wanted to find a way out,
But it didn't work that way,
I wanted to believe,
There was another way,
But things don't quite work out that way,
It's always been mine to bear,
My entire life,
Was spent believing,
That there was more,
On the other side,
That when it was over,
I'd be welcomed,
And ushered,
Home,
But now,
I don't know that I believe that,
The trials began,
And I fought,
But to no avail,
They wouldn't be persuaded,
They continued to say,
That no matter what,
I was guilty,
I turned my head to the heavens,
And asked for penance,
All I received,
Was a slap from an imaginary god,
That I always thought,
Existed,
Now,
I sat tied,
And nailed,
To this cross,
Waiting for the flames,
That are sure to come,
I've cursed god,
If he's even listening,
I've cursed heaven,
Cause it's not somewhere I want to be,
Instead,
Let the cross be mine to bear,
Until the fires,
Burn away my life,
That's a fitting end,
That I can deal with,
Afterward
You know recent debates between myself and friends sparked this piece. I like how it turned out, and I like how it kind of gives the feel of doubt at what's next. I really enjoyed the way this piece turned out and I hope that you did as well. Please share your thoughts in the comments section.
