threads of sin – v5

threads of sin
strands of present evil
of my past, my life,
still woven in the fabric
thick fibers holding on
holes in their shape
hard to cut out, to pull,
to remove completely
without doing damage
like the tares from the wheat
interwoven, fused,
melted, joined together
a part of the body
the struggle day to day
to be more faithful
threads of sin,
strands of evil
roots still buried
a part of my body
grafted in my flesh
hard to remove
without doing damage
