What I Have Written

The words of the governor now says it all. It appears that, in the governor's heart, there lies a 'Me Moment' that he cannot escape. There is so much to be captured from this historic moment, but I was arrested by this one. Can you feel the emotions of Governor Pilate expressed in the frustration that says, "I have had enough!"? "I have handed over a faultless man now condemned to die as the worst of criminals. Enough, I say!" "Neither I nor the king found fault in him. I have washed my hands of this man, but I still feel guilty. And you come to me with your religious trivialities, requesting that I alter what I have written! Away from me! What I have written, I have written!" 032725PS
