Yeshua and Lucifer

[Luzifer]

He hung there nailed to a block of wood

He smiled soft and said “I could

Have been so grand and free and tall

But now I hang and the ravens call

They want to eat my everything

Alone”

A young man popped up next to him

From no where, coming on a whim

He sighed and said “I could set you free

But you would have to want be

Something less and yet something so

Alone”

The hanging man looked at the fool

He leaned against his wood, looked so cool

And said, “ No I think this is fine with me

I suppose its sad but I just have to be

Dead so that those others shake and quake

Alone”

The other man he smirked so sad

“ so spite is your reason? To bad

you did not die with a virgin goal

it does not matter much this whole

mess is something I just want to leave

Alone”

“I suppose you wood, you chilly soul

you never had a hope to hold

you think of only misery

while all your men run wild and free

keep them only a leash but stay

alone”

“Don’t tell me what to do my friend

it is my way to choose my end

you chose yours as you can see

so by your pleasure I’ll stay free

and just cuddle all this misery

alone”

The man he laughed and coughed up blood

“tarnish the though that would make sure mud

I like you kind though I can’t agree

With all the things that you seek to be

So I will leave you very much

Alone”

The leaning man he smiled back

“if you want I can remove the tack

that keeps you shackled to your life

death will come sweet it’s very light

and you will start your lofty rise

alone”

“That would be nice I shall admit

this reality I do long to quit

I’ve done my time and see it all

Seen the paintings on the wall

Where the children scrawl with charcoal hands

Alone

I have seen the moon get covered up

By peasant martyrs and wisemen’s cups

I have sown the seeds of misery

I know I should be punished, see

So if you’d wouldn’t mind I shall hang

Alone”

But then the hang man said, “Wait!

My dear old friend, one I should hate

Never mind what I said just stay

I seek you company for this day

Because soon enough I’ll rise and be

Alone”

The younger man he shrugged and stood

“ that is fine, this is all good

it matters not to me just where I go

for the pittance of the world I would not flow

far from anywhere for I shall move

alone

I am to myself all that I need

I take no orders but don’t you bleed

Seeking my assent for favors gleaned

I give them freely for I am not mean

Or stingy merely a man who acts

Alone”

“And for that I do respect you yet

the sun is closing to its coming set

and it shall be so dark and I

will not be able to see naught but you eyes

as they hang yellow in the blackness so

alone”

the man did not respond at all

just stood nearby until the call

of the raven signaled what he knew

would came and the wind it blew

his hair and the body as he stood

alone

Good poem, but not so sure about the title. Care to explain? It's very interesting, seems two men are talking, but both wish to be alone?

[Luzifer]

its literally a conversation between Jesus (his ahrimahic nam was Yeshua) and Lucifer... I just thought it would be more interesting if I changed their normal relationship around a bit.
