“Call of Flesh”

By: Janine Tenoso

Seeing through these world right now,

Today was much different.
Scars of one’s purity,
appear now for all to see.

Distant past man was created naked

Adam epitomized the man, Eve the woman.
Both of them are pure
free from sin and obscene.

Until one day in disguised Satan came,

promised them long lasting power, lure to err.
The fragile faith instantly vanished,
God abhor, then there was shame.

What was happening today

children of Adam and Eve?
Impertinence and lewd men were everywhere,
Where is shame? Shame! Shame!

Vulgar flesh of human,

Used for pleasure and money.
Even the young was not excluded,
in the abusive world of impurity.

What should we expect bestow from God?

For us men ruin the body- His temple.
Innocence was gone and world was hateful,
Tell me now should we hope for salvation?
