Penance

Will I walk through flames
To purge these thoughts
Of lust and lechery

Will I bleed away
This need to feed
And pleaseure this gluttony

Will I lie down
On my face
To pay for my avarice

Will I be made
To show my strengths
Hard work and diligence

Will I promote
The need for peace
To offset my spite and wrath

Will my eyes be sewn
While envy's pleasures
cloud my every path

Will I fall from heaven
And follow Lucifer
In pride and malevolence

Will all be lost
As I bide my time
For the answer to my penance
