Colossians 2:9–15

Spawn of the demon world,
those who walk the night —
powers which feed on fear
lie crushed beneath his feet;
Image of the Invisible.
I have walked that night, have known
its fear. Chained by decress:
“Do not taste!
Do not touch!
Do not handle!”
But the specter can rule no more.
Debt is nailed to wood.
Chains are broken by mangled hands.
