Why
do you
sin so much
In Satan's clutch
No yen to get free
Going down very fast
How much longer can you last
Is your fate forever to be
In the shadows of declivity
Or will someday perhaps, reason you see.
In a list

Effective use of form...
I found the inclusion of yen attractive;
but felt reason did not fit the build-up given.
Seems like it should have been a word that deals
with spirit rather than mind.
