The vicious devil dwells in us as a DESIRE
Craving for money and power, flare as wildfire
Making one egocentric and ready to conspire
Filling life with sins, preventing one from rising higher
The destructive devil dwells in us as an ANGER
Abruptly blinds our thinking leading us to danger
If we have no control over, it will linger in us longer
Draining our health leading to relationship cancer
The delusive devil dwells in us as an IGNORANCE
Covering our intellectual capacity, stopping us to enhance
Our knowledge of truth through which peace we embrace
Makes us dull, poor, low self-esteem and indecisive trance
The detrimental devil dwells in us as an ARROGANCE
Distancing us from loved ones with an invisible fence
Destroying relationship with a harsh and arrogant stance
Making us less prudent, dominated by our overconfidence
The self-burning devil dwells in us as a JEALOUSY
The weaver of cunning thought without mercy
Makes one drown deeply into the agony of fallacy
If not avoided, stays in us as a transcendental legacy

Very well written. It’s true our downfall depends on these negative qualities that can reduce us into ash.
