This poem was written contemplating the correlation between Paul and Gideon after I was given a dream that there is proverb about the two of them. After some research, and connecting the dots, the clay pot correlation between the two of them was shown to me.
2 Corinthians 4:7 But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us.
Clay Pots

With such ease does the clay pot break
When our mind is not vigilant and fully awake
To the snake that peddles lies and vicious deceit
So you slumber in misery and feel incomplete
The clay pot is empty and needs to be filled
With the Spirit of God to the rim and then spilled
Over the rim to the world which is dead
So they hear the good news and their hunger is fed
When the Spirit of God is not in the clay
It’s open for evil to enter and stay
Their wicked bands break when you fast and you pray
In the name of Lord Jesus who showed us The Way
These clay vessels are fragile, but can become strong
