Easter Today
We only kill to save our skin
From the cross
Too much blood flows
For one repentance
One unconformed to lash of tongue
Or bickering bruises of bricks
Shall I state my preference
Though whichever way I pay the price
Justice deferred is not nice
I drink no gall
To dim the diminishless pain of the fall
Let me content alone
In the shining promise pledged by the throne
Of cross lifted
Drawing my will changed and sifted.
