Devil is in the details, my love

I was burning ants with a magnifying glass
because I could

I was God.

But ants became boring so I tore off the wings of a butterfly
because I could

I was God

But there's something beautiful about butterflies
so I stopped
and started looking for angels

Breaking their hearts
because I could

But there's nothing more beautiful than the love of a woman
so I started performing miracles
She couldn't walk when I was done
This serpent's tongue knows all the tricks

I was the devil.

I've got a puppy for an ego
and she kicked him more than once
because she could

She was God.

I became boring so she tore off the wings of a butterfly
because she could
 
But there's something beautiful about butterflies
so she stopped
and started looking

for God.
