Observing the flesh ...
Proverbs 5:11
11 And at the end of your life you will groan
when your flesh and your body are wasted away.
Flesh
Observing the flesh … life is like a vapor
Here one day … and then it’s gone
Searching for purpose … questioning motive
Hanging on to time … in search for the morning sun
Daily chores get done … by the keepers of the clinging
When we depart however … do we leave work behind?
Can we not accept to be … failing temporal beings?
And death seems not real to the flesh … and acts so blind?
As long as there is breath … and some consciousness
The flesh redeems its power … who knows from where?
Is it mental evaluation … or psychological weariness?
Talking about the “wish of death” as a solution under stress?
Not knowing what to wish for … some remarks are made
It seems that by instinct … we’ll hang on to existence
Is not what is mostly prayed … for the flesh’s health update
So to be delivered through perseverance … quickly in an instant?
