Heavy-laden

Pax 3d

Heavy-laden

I'm made of lead
as I'm laid in bed,
heavy-laden.

sells salvation 'til tomorrow.

Love is the Narrow Way

Pax 4d

Love is the Narrow Way

I drown when I divert from love,
dragged into a crushing depth;
and lo, the way whereon I trod—
one whose gate is wide and broad—
does lead me unto certain death.

Le colère

Pax 6d

Le colère

The quickness of rage—
that murderous blight—
discards self-control
for counterfeit might.
