The Battle of Senses - a poem

Thinking is the battlefield
Senses take the stage
Fiery darts of Sight
Noble swords of Hearing
Volley
A heart is in play

seeing...
futility
hearing...
achievement (Gal. 6:9, Matt. 5:16, 2 Cor. 4:17)

seeing...
betrayal
hearing...
involvement (Heb. 12:7-8, Rom. 8:28)

seeing...
abandonment
hearing...
commitment (Ps 22:24, Heb. 13:5)

seeing...
failure
hearing...
triumph (2 Cor. 2:14)

seeing...
obscurity
hearing...
compassion (Ps 56:8, Heb. 6:10)

On the floor of Thought
Sight is conquered
Hearing the Word of Christ

2 Corinthians 5:7 & Romans 10:17
