IS THERE ANY DEVIL?

Unseen,
Yet seen through works.
Seen,
Yet invisible.
Within all lies hidden pure evil.
Devil lives in everything mortal;
And shall come to an end.
If I can't see him — the devil —
that is invisible, unmnifest,
It is my very self.
It's within me —unseen, unmnifest—
That imagination, instincts within,
Is the very God, Devil within all.
If I see him —the devil—
Then it is of another that I think of as evil lest I go blind, irresolute though greater evil from friends, acquaintances.
If I see him —the Devil—
Then it is the dominant collective efforts of individual evil minds manifesting.
And the mortal;
Either good, either bad;
Switching between archetypal God, Devil as it suits for the moment.
The Devil is the subtotal of all evil minds at work;
It's all that is evil.
And all that is Sin.
