There ain’t no rest
for the wicked.
Or at the very least
The Devil’s box office
appears to be
all out of tickets.

Indeed, your only choice
is to stay here..
such is your humble lot.
It’s not so bad,
so many people came
to see you..
thanks to you, the venue
is sold out.

The Devil beckons thee..
stay here my darling..
do not go.
You may have sung
your heart out,
but it makes no difference
to your beloved
audience.

Because the show..
must.. go.. on.
