3- The Demon’s Demon

The Demon had fooled a monster and a man
He ate all his preys standing, so he never ran

He felt so happy for being evil and smart
Eating all of his preys, taking every heart

Then came to him a bigger demon in red
And with a grin on his face, he slowly said

“The time has come for you tonight to see
Why a true blood-demon you can never be”

Understand this riddle before eleven fifty-five
Once you understand it, I’ll let you stay alive

This is a game for all men to play
Win the game and you’ll live today

The demon agreed and said alright!
He will not go down without a fight!

The demon pulls out his long axe
“Don’t worry, you must only relax”

The demon closed his eyes before he could cry
With a swing, his bloodlust head started to fly

The demon gave-in, became the demon’s food
He could have lived if the riddle he’d understood
