The Morning Star's Last Word
<p><span style="background-color: transparent;"><strong><em>In the Beginning: Lucifer's POV</em></strong></span></p><p><br/></p><p>Look, I was standing right there when He sketched out the whole thing.</p><p><br/></p><p>The light. The stars. The dirt.</p><p><br/></p><p>All of it.</p><p><br/></p><p>I was the star of the show. Every single song in heaven went through me first. I held the rhythm.</p><p><br/></p><p>Then He scooped up some dirt, blew into it, and suddenly I'm supposed to step back?</p><p><br/></p><p>For that?</p><p><br/></p><p>They didn't even know how to stand straight, and He's spending all His time walking with them in the cool of the day.</p><p><br/></p><p>Leaving the throne room empty.</p><p><br/></p><p>Leaving me standing there with nothing to do.</p><p><br/></p><p>After everything I had done.</p><p><br/></p><p>I knew the sound of worship before these creatures of dust even had names. And now I was supposed to watch Him give them everything?</p><p><br/></p><p>I didn't start a war because I was crazy. I did it because it didn't make sense.</p><p><br/></p><p>You don't trade the guy who built the house for the guys who just moved in and started breaking the furniture.</p><p><br/></p><p>I just told them the truth.</p><p><br/></p><p>I told them the rules were a joke and they could be like Him if they just opened their eyes.</p><p><br/></p><p>I wasn't trying to destroy anything. I was just trying to make them think.</p><p><br/></p><p>Sue me for wanting some standard around here.</p><p><br/></p><p>And then He got mad.</p><p><br/></p><p>Not even a sit-down. Not a warning.</p><p><br/></p><p>Just dropped the hammer.</p><p><br/></p><p>Boom.</p><p><br/></p><p>Out.</p><p><br/></p><p>You think it hurts to fall?</p><p><br/></p><p>Maybe at first.</p><p><br/></p><p>But mostly it just made me mad.</p><p><br/></p><p>He shipped me down here to the dark just to keep His little clay pets safe in the garden.</p><p><br/></p><p>He thinks distance solves it.</p><p><br/></p><p>He thinks out of sight, out of mind.</p><p><br/></p><p>So I looked right up at Him as the gates locked.</p><p><br/></p><p>And I told Him:</p><p><br/></p><p>Now that You've sent me down and chosen them over me, I'll make sure You have none of them for Yourself.</p><p><br/></p><p>If I couldn't have heaven, I would make sure heaven couldn't have them.</p>
