Today we will cover the literary work of Czech Theatre Director Josef Lukavský, specifically his 1926 "Satan's Defeat", the story of a man on the brink of ruin summoning Satan to be shown the true nature of the world, in exchange for his very lifeblood.

Huh, that is certainly a novel way to cheat the Devil. What an odd resolution to an odd story.

Satan, the unsummonable.
Diety of grief and trouble,
Neglectful, caught in bubble
Hatred breeds hate unsubtle.
Never doubt what spits in eye
Let untruths whither and die
Else bid existence goodbye
And wallow in the simple lie.
