TSUL ESNES DNA (Puzzle Poetry)

A demon staked a 7, 5, 4, 8, 2, 9, 3, 10, 1, 6
…with ten numbers
And staked 7, 5, 4, 8, 2, 9, 3, 1, 6
…with nine numbers
He went on to stake 7, 5, 4, 8, 2, 3, 1, 6
…with eight numbers
And proceeded to stake 7, 5, 4, 2, 3, 1, 6
…with seven numbers
God approved his choices casting 5, 4, 2, 3, 1, 6
…with six numbers
And allowed an angel to use 3, 5, 4, 2, 1
…for his five numbers
2, 3, 1, 4
…for his four numbers
And 1, 3, 2 for his three numbers
God turned the numbers to be fair
So the stakes are up
