Road to Hell

The road to destruction

Is unmarked;

It is not dark and menacing

As it painted to be.



Instead, it is welcoming

With green shrubbery

Surrounding it,

Not weeds and thorns.



There are no steep hills,

Only slight slopes

And no rocky pathways,

Only smooth roads.


Author's Notes/Comments: 

Inspired by: The safest road to hell is the gradual one - the gentle slope, soft underfoot, without sudden turnings, without milestones, without signposts. C.S. Lewis
