Fortitude

sin sapped my soul, Y'all.

must tell it how it is. 

lust leering in its limbo lie, 

down on God's good garden, 

down on my fraught fortitude. 

but savior saved my soul, Y'all. 

must burst my bubble with babble. 

love looking in its laughing likeness,

up into God's symphony Spirit, 

up into my forged fortitude.
