when looking evil in the face
my reflection mirrored
it's possession.
for without restraint
footholds of destruction
will obstruct
a true and faithful path.

Yeah, no kidding
Wonderful write.
footholds of destruction.
Who's?
And who made the footholds?
Okay, stupid and senseless question.
This is an amazingly vivid write, an I wish you all the best.
