Ripped by the Passion

Aug11 by justhappeneduponthis



Has it ripped you?
That look on His face
As the mother caught
A glimpse
And they yanked Him away.
_____
The momentum
Of prosecution
Sweeps over Goodness;
The chains, the sweat,
The martial pace.
_____
A rude woodwork
Lades His shoulders.
Streets once rejoicing
At the message
Now curse and scrape.
_____
But has it ripped you?
Seeing many falls
And lashings.
The Peacemaker
Inciting matchless hate.
_____
And friends stare mutely
But dare not step up.
Even the governor
Flinches at this task.
God’s will be done.
_____
It ripped Him…God
To see a Son so
Badly shamed, pained,
Rebuked and drained,
As per Plan.
_____
That target hill on
Which salvation stands.
The spikes that butcher
Feet and hands.
The ridiculous crown.
_____
But show me, Man.
It rips and rocks you.
Or else REMOVE!
Another broken reed,
Christ’s worth to prove.
