~ OVERCOMING CONCUPISCENCE ~

{carnal temptation}

~ OVERCOMING CONCUPISCENCE ~

If it is within the desires of men
To savor sensuality
To salivate over the salacious
Or to receive
Still greater consolation
From falsely perceived 'Godly Delights"
Rather than
To despise the temptations of this world
Or renounce
All pleasures
Anticipating the archetypes
For they will subtly morph
Into the wings
Of angels
Where copious amounts of consolation
Would surely be yours...

For the carnal will tempt you
Coyly invite you in
To that which offers no hope
Do, fervently endeavor
To eagerly embrace your faith
For it will lift the veil
That portal into prayer
Or that which holds the power
Power of the word
The Love of God's
'Strength in wisdom'
His divine guidance
Pristine,
And completely,
Devoid ,
Of guile....

Tony Taylor

Quite the picture Tony. ?
sex is a biological act for procreation.Ā 

Dealing with this reality in a civilized manner
has been the down fall of many.Ā 

The endocrine can easily overwhelm ones logic/intelligence.

Great write.
