TUG OF WAR
Bloody barren battlefield
Scarred from years of conflict
My mortal enemy
Better known as me
I am my own destructive nemesis
Clarity
Solution
Awareness
Slowly clears the emphysematous brume
Ego
Self centered greed
Lust
Stubborn belligerence
Conceited audacity
Lightly dusted with impatience
Perceived ultra intelligence
Potent ingredients
Sautéed idiosyncratic gumbo
Consistent clash
Classic battle between light and darkness
The casualties
Excessive at times
Soul tug of war
Splits my very being
Fractured psyche
Each ripened quadrant
Fighting for dominance
Loving Dad
Cheerful optimist
Humble servant
My preferred bailiwick
Degree of difficulty
To maintain contact with my good side
Depends upon my willingness
It’s funny
The deep dark secrets
I harbored so fiercely over the years
I now share with the world in modest text
Thank you Father
For these lessons learned
And wisdom gained
All praise and glory is yours
My Savior
My best friend
