Description
The Fall of Lucifer or the Origin of Evil by E.T. Smets is a poem which typifies perfectly the concept of religious and philosophical freedom and a verse to rival even the the darkest works by Edgar Allen Poe. Although because of the subject matter, it was very rarely recited in public during the latter part of the 19th century or first half of the 20th century. Instead it became classed as a work of demonology and neglected by the poet societies of the time. Yet it offers a unequaled view of how perception can be manipulated and gave a characterization to an angel who we were all taught to fear....Yet the un-capitalized word lucifer has a literal meaning of "the morning star, the planet Venus", or, as an adjective, "light-bringing".
First published in 1896, this verse was not meant to praise him but to offer an alternative view of a tortured soul.
