Gust

Another strange title but never mind, I feel like today has flown by rather quickly and I beginning to wonder where it all went too as before I knew where I was, I was rushing down to the writing group only to face a locked door and my fellow writers, luckily I did quite well today despite the fact that I arrived out of breathe, I will type here the short letter I wrote two weeks ago whilst I was at Triage, if you haven’t read The Screwtape Letters by C.S Lewis then I highly recommend that you do before reading this, its my take on what if Lucifer wrote to to Screwtape, I’m quite pleased how it has turned out but I suppose you will be the judge of that.

Dear Screwtape, 

                            I’ve heard much about the failure of your nephew but don’t worry, your not to blame, the boy has been punished for this.

I wonder if he simply didn’t have enough experience or he paid little heed to the letters you sent.

Maybe he lacked the courage to tempt the patient over to our cause, whatever the reason I feel as though the boy needs to taught the basics, all over again.

As for you my dear friend, I suppose you can relax for a while but I feel as though your services are needed as these young tempters seem to be lacking either that are the standards we want to them to achieve are too high.

Do you remember your patient record? Nearly everyone was flawless in their eternal damnation, sure a few slipped through our fingers (but nothing as spectacular as your nephew’s failure).

I feel as though you and I can teach these young tempters a thing or two but I suppose they are to wet behind the ears for my type of schooling.

Anyway, if its not too much to ask and if your not busy watching your nephew suffer, if I was you I would reconsider your position and go back to the good old days where patients fell into this place.

Besides, we desperately need your skills and talent to get those patients back.

Your Eternally

Your God
