Skin for Skin

Fränz Müller

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.

    A poem of the battle between good and bad well written

  • Tristan Robert Lange

    Fränz, what a thoughtful reflection. The poem acknowledges the subtle ways temptation works while ultimately reminding us that our deepest identity isn't found in our failures but in what God continues to refine within us. That hopeful ending ties everything together beautifully. Wonderful write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
