Here's an interesting excerpt from Gibran's short story titled Satan. The story, in its entirety, gave me much to ponder and chuckle about. Enjoy!
And Satan protested, "My disdain for humanity is not greater than your hatred for yourself. You are blessing Michael, who never has come to your rescue. You are cursing me in the hour of my defeat, even though I was, and still am, the source of your tranquility and happiness. You deny me your blessing, and extend not your kindness, but you live and prosper in the shadow of my being.
Khalil Gibrani is a wizard teacher who would deny Lord Jesus and His teaching , and then bring in a false prophet teaching which to ridicule and twist truth of Christ ....does not hold water here

Khali is one of my favorite poets. A poet reaches into his heart and soul and writes from there, not necessarily to impress any person, but because he is expressing the innermost part of himself. I write lots of poetry, it is a great release, and a worthwhile gift in that respect.
"Wisdom ceases to be wisdom when it becomes too proud to weep, too grave to laugh, and too selfish to seek other than itself." Khali Gibron
"You have adopted my existence as an excuse and weapon for your career, and you employ my name in justification for your deeds. Has not my past caused you to be in need of my present and future? Have you reached your goal in amassing the required wealth? Have you found it impossible to extract more gold and silver from your followers, using my kingdom as a threat?"
