INKling No8—fear

There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with
punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love.
1 John 4:18

he leaves  you   d e a d   upon  the  altar,  naked
building you up with dread furnace-inflated
he  p a r a l y s e s  every nerve
w h o s e  price  no  n o b l e
p u r p o s e   s e r v e s
a  thousand  t i m e s
before your death
he sucks you dry
of every breath
fear masquerades
in  p u r p l e  light
then feeds his preys
unto the night
