History Sees a Man
The cross is a symbol
of abject suffering
and base brutality,
lacking humanity.
Jesus nailed to the cross,
is a vile depiction of
cruelty and torture
causing anguish and death.
I find it curious
that Christens would select
such a gruesome image
to symbolize God's love.
How many innocent
souls have died on the cross
in the name of Jesus,
by so-called popes and priests?
A crucified figure
hanging in agony,
in no way represents
a caring, loving God.
Through His own testament,
Jesus was born a Jew,
and He prayed to Yahweh,
His one and only God.
Although a great healer
and a Jewish Rabbi,
history sees a man
and sadly, so do I.
