84 – Playing Favorites

God doesn't play favorites & 
Satan certainly doesn't, but 
Angels & demons? Monsters' names 
Playing their favorite games 

They have their favorite pieces: 
Rooks, bishops, knights, queens, 
Kings & pawns; children to cherish 
& children they let perish 

All the pieces are the same 
In a dark mirror, but 
Angels & demons only favor 
Their favorite color 

v.2

God doesn't play favorites 
And the Devil certainly doesn't 
But angels & demons? Monster names 
Playing their favorite games 

Their own rooks, bishops, knights 
Their own kings, queens, pawns 
Their own children they cherish & 
Their own children they let perish 

All the pieces are the same 
In a mirror, but 
Angels & demons favor 
Only their favorite color
