Just Two Pieces of Wood Knoted Together

just two pieces
of a coarse wood
binded together
is where our trust
is knoted to
oh yes,belief would
whether if it could
but not ours

one horizontal
the other vertical
like two woods
will ever have a significance 
but what was pinned to the wood
is more of importance
than anythang other should

fancy the wood made rugged 
from driping blood
from the flesh of one
same as you
picture the skin decarated with stripes
from whips and spears

and at golgotha
the fate of woods
were to change forever
for a king moaned 
onits stems
and is blood
transformed the bark to gems,
precious gems
that bring another breed of hope
at the thought of the ordinary wood
