Poetry

---

To you as unto spiritual I could not speak,
Since you are after the flesh that you seek;
As children I gave you milk instead of meat,
But unable to take for not being as sweet;
Still into flesh you being of envy and lust,
A division of what girls with a nicer bust;
Retain carnal thoughts and feel the strife,
Arising short of the glory in eternal life.
So easily tempted through this day in age,
When pornography seems to be all the rage;
Right on the TV in the brightness of day,
The store magazine rack helps you stray;
Even on the Internet the web is just full,
Packed with every type of perverted fool;
No way you be of the Spirit and the flesh,
For this earth and Heaven do not intermesh;
It is an either/or situation no in between,
Either go with God or the stripper queen;
The carnal truth Satan has you in control,
Allowing sinful lust take over your soul.
