The Wold, Flesh, And the Devil

The World, Flesh, and the Devil

Drugs and liquor.

Cigarettes are my very cancer.

I am the very destroyer of my very own entity.

It’s hard to love at times, but I do so because I believe love was responsible for the very creation of me.

I’m sober now and I find peace in God, music, and a cup of tea, but I still miss the weed.

I walk with a limp because I was once lost, but now I have found my future.

I see the world, flesh, and the devil.

Logos.

Words of blessing.

The cosmos!

Government of the planet.

Day and night, good and evil, life and death.

Committed to the lord and warfare began.

They disguise themselves for temptation.

Coming as an angel of light to derail our purpose in life and sometimes they take life in those closes to us and even in ourselves.

I can take my mind back in the past, but not my body.

My essential self is what it is, non-worldliness.

I not live or cater for myself unless it’s on your behalf.

Your opinions don’t make me feel any better.

Soul no longer remains cold because God’s blessings cover me live a sweater.

During the hard times my watery eyes cry and I must say at times I don’t mind…

As humans we are always battling the flesh. "Live in the Spirit and you will not give in to the lusts of the flesh." :)

I liked the ending to the amazing poetry.

Pretty good flow. You have a lot going on but what poem doesn't? I always enjoy reading your poems.

I can't seem to put my finger on only one aspect. There are so many, some noticeable, some hidden. It's similar to life. I think you resumed life as it is. Great job!

The vagueness of this really allowed for a strong mood to sliver through, and really contrasted and gave power to the strength of the lines "I see the world, flesh, and the devil...They disguise themselves for temptation." I really enjoyed this from last line to finish!

Hard to find a unified theme in this one. It comes across as a set of musings that sprang to the poet's mind separately, although many of them seem to deal with religious or spiritual principles. It sounds like the speaker has had some kind of experience that has delivered him from a dissolute life. If so, all the better.

"I am the very destroyer of my very own entity" Very powerful! The words speak true, let's the reader into your world!
