my own little world

Tear drops spill
to the blood scarred dust
execution on a hill
the man they called great

Thunder clouds and rain
he cries out in pain
split aching ground quivers
30 pieces rancid silver

Rocking
staring down
knees too weak to hold me up
muddy reddish brown
swallowing stones
it should be my pride they slaughter
should be him on the throne.

His body writhingly pitiful
his eyes deeply beautiful
to myself he whispers:
"Even if you where the only one..."

to fight the stabbing pain I look away
only to meet his arms that take me in

forever.

Oh My, Bonnie . . . this is beautiful . . .
it should be in spiritual . . .  
but it is nice to be HERE
where it is needed most . . .
