ichthys JUNE 7
PAIN BARRIER * crystalline
Beads of sweat drip onto eyebrows,
tears of relief greet the baby's cry
Beads of sweat drip onto eyebrows,
tears of joy polish the medal gold
Beads of sweat drip onto eyebrows,
tears of pain filling His stripes again
Note:(ichthys), or XIesoûs Khristós, Theoû Huiós, Sot?r;translates into English as 'Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior'
