Is he a mythical biblical character?
Familiarised in religious practices across the world
His name has reached immense popularity amongst believers and pegans beyond
The ghost of his past rattles the minds of philosophers alike
Seeking to find scientific methods to his acclaimed miracles
Tales of his crucifixion associated with his bravery and sacrifice
Rumours of his godly powers,by those who claim to have bore witness
Recollections on moments of brief but meaningful encounters scripted over centuries,
In all languages of our time
Descriptions of experiencing greatness in his presence
With the wisdom of a many men before him
At a close but subjective proximity
May be a neurotic response to a deem view,stitched together over historical moments
May be a fictional creature created by our need to belief in something bigger
The imaginings of a man that was afforded no mercy by followers who claimed allegiance to his faith
He that was said to have carried the burden for the sins of humanity
Walked over splinters of thorns to shield our continued existance
Weapons formed against him and his ideals may have indeed prospered
Enduring a pain no men should
As his blood bath soiled the land were he stood nailed
