here's a poem i wrote a while back called...

doctor, doctor

doctor, doctor
my heart hurts
in case the scenario gets any worse
take this stethoscope and put it in your ears
put it on my heart and tell me what you hear

immorality, impurity
idolatry, jealousy
to gratify this creature
to indulge the sinful nature

does it beat with hatred and rage?
pumping the things that make me a slave
living contrary to the Spirit
shackled you will not inherit
the kingdom
the freedom
from these
dissensions, discord, and envy

some medicine
some fruit
can you hear?
are the blockages all clear?
love, joy, peace
no longer fear
now it's self control, kindness, patience
and a right relationship between doctor and patient

doctor, doctor
what do you prescribe?
the sinful nature crucified

(Galatians 5:16-25)
