Skin for Skin

The Adversary walks to and fro

upon the earth and sea

seeking to corrupt and stain

creation, you and me.

He whispers in your ear at night

and fills your head with dreams

and goads you on to worship self

but never mind the screams!

When one dives in and takes the time

to peel the layers of sin

you’ll gleam like gold and, all be told

reveal the beauty within.
