The temptation of young Eve
She was so easy to deceive
She didn’t even seem to mind
Following soon thereafter
A parade of easy victims
Hardly even need to trick ‘em
Easy snare is all it takes
The golden calf, that too
Was a glory to behold
One could have easily foretold
They would fall away quite soon
The Master was more difficult
No stones turned into bread
No angels’ wings to spread
I was banished for a season
But judas was the best
For such a pitiable price
No need to tempt him twice
Such delicious suicide
The end game now in sight
Another blowout to expect
For He surely will accept
An easy out from painful death
Then I was dealt an awful blow
No embrace of easy victory
He did not succumb to trickery
But endured the cross until the end
And still surprises yet to come
Instead of ending with last breath
Erupting from the ties of death
The easy victory snatched from sight
Not easily dissuaded yet
I still roam earth and ply my trade
In spite of knowing I am made
For full destruction at the end
The truth is thus that victory
Was once for all won at the cross
Turns out the easy thing is loss
The win is blowing death away
