Judas' Carrion

Judas’ Carrion
	

Gossiping in such a furtive manner
Determined to raise success’ banner
Murmuring eloquently in the dark
Calumny where there’s no spark,

In the coven of conspiracy gather
Passing the Cup of Hate to another
Greedily imbibing to quench thirst
Competing to see who wins first....

To the contrary, let God be blessed:
He’s not with limitations distressed
When from another we plan to steal
To the affected He plans to heal!!

There is much to ponder here, JM, and I enjoy that you've made me think. Great job, my friend! :)

I took after you in using pun. This is Judas Iscariot! He betrays with a kiss! Since he is dead too, he's now carrion! That's how God heals the affected. THE PASSING CUP WAS INSPIRED BY THE LAST MEAL. Friend, JM
