The Day History Changed

Roman whip, an evil scourge bringing death Blood Drips throughout history stained by this deed Pilate asked " Was he God " if so confess His duty, to die for our sins, to bleed His burden written in antiquity's words Scrolls of lashed parchment read by Priests, to street Spoke from a sinless mouth where love is heard To share in peace,five loaves, two fish to eat This evil wrought from whip splays man's warm flesh Ancient script played out for humanity's fate Bloody cross behold this crush of man's thresh Husks and stems from God and man separate And the joy bought by Priests becomes far worse To kill the shepherd, for devil a curse
