A prayer

So sweet it is to the eye
and the serpent says
"it will satisfy"
and the head nods
"aye"
and so,
indulged inside the mind
just a little compromise,
so slight a conscience div/ide
and so,
fondled lust is fortified.

Strengthened so,
"whose to know?"
Besides-
"He didn't provide"
and the serpent sides.
And what is in the heart
sinks its roots deeper inside.

Called by name
they are profane
but in darkness
they have no name.
but in darkness
there is no shame.

There is no light of the glorious gospel of Christ.

How long, how long will you fend,
as He is crucified again?

Deceived and hardened
putting off repentance for a future uncertain.
This pleasure, is it worth more than your soul?
This fruit will surely be found foul,
a rotted core,
a thorough stink,
and you cannot assume your next blink.

Oh, man, this is no trifle
when you scorn the living God for an idol!
for a Lust
for a Body
for a Night
for acceptance so temporary.
for a Vanity.

There is no stained and alloyed life
allowed in his pure and perfect wife.

Turn now, oh heart!
Break in two!
His heart breaks for you.
Our hearts break for you.
Come home, MK.
Come back to the light.
The burden-lifting glorious gospel of Jesus Christ
