Have its lobster claws times two pincered off
One way sticks of this crustacean’s underwater trap?
Eight leggedly it gallops off among arthritic, bulbous trees.
And waves its spiny tail to cover up its tracks.
Dogs have joined the spirit of the game,
Spaniels with foreheads as regally as high
As their master princess on a unicorn
And will play this pint sized monster-knight to death.
Undistracted by surrealistic fish camouflaged in dark,
Untempted by sea horses following her braid.
Never can crustacean hunts be lost
When hounds are hot upon a trail of lobster sauce.

Temptation isn’t Sin
Written: by Miracle man
October 19, 2020
We don’t have to sin each time we’re tempted,
* because God makes for us an avenue of escape.
A Christian doesn’t go through life untempted,
but with each temptation our character we reshape.
Like leeches on skin Satan adheres to your soul,
not always leaving telltale scars in sight.
It’s always little things until he’s gained control,
but on judgment day all will come to light.
* 1 Corinthians 10:13
There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
