OOMs ?
Belted into the haze, marked with beak and shading plume, made a spectacle to ciphers that crawl and laugh. In the pinching layer, under the cosmostrata (six down and towards the middle), belly upside-downwards takes the bait.
A chance, a change, a turn, a name - and none will know the wooden whispers spittering under the arm, two can make the tread.

Found OOMs!
Something from Chicago Imagists, a wolf spider with her babies, and a strange mirror.

For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
Romans 8:13 ESV
If, having been redeemed, you go back to living according to the flesh, rejecting the priceless gift that God has given, there is no more sacrifice to cover your sins. Nobody can take God’s mercy away from you, but you are capable of rejecting it, even after having received it. If you do so, don’t be surprised if God’s wrath against you is even greater than it would have been if you had never received the truth at all. Yeshua’s blood is the greatest atonement there can ever be, and if you reject it, you reject all hope for eternity.
So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.
Romans 8:12 ESV
We are debtors because God gave us life when we could not have given it to ourselves. We don’t owe the flesh anything in regard to our salvation, because it is unable to do anything in our favor. God enables us to live in the spirit even while our flesh continuously tries to drag us back into the grave.
This is a debt that we can never repay because it is of infinite worth. The only thing we can do to repay God’s gift is to live as God instructs us to live, according to his commandments as disciples of Yeshua, and making new disciples along the way.
Paul uses the word spirit (pneuma) six times in Romans 8:12-17, and he uses it in multiple ways. They don't all refer to God's Spirit, not even when most translations capitalize the word. There's a chiasm in these verses that might help you see the idea that Paul was trying to explain.
A - V12-13 - Killing the flesh per God’s Spirit leads to life
B - V14 - Spirit of God reveals sons of God
C - V15 - Spirit of slavery vs spirit of adoption as sons
B - V16 - Spirit of God reveals children of God
A - V17 - Suffering in flesh per God’s Son leads to life
