Messiah
Were I to sit at the back of a church,
A whole pew to myself, my thoughts, and I,
Could I look at the cross at the front of the room
And know that is where the Messiah was left to die?
His sacrifice is a faint memory
From immortals and Gods of old,
No one nowadays truly knows
The exact words he spoke, the stories he told.
The Bible is written by Believers,
By those worshipping everything he was,
Or, everything he could have been for them;
A holy innocent caught in avarice-soaked claws.
Their names were written and recorded,
Millions named after the twelve.
Jesus could have been arrogant and proud,
But that’s in a past into which we can never delve.
So, Messiah and Lord,
Who watches us from his Fathers side,
Were you pious and pure or hubristic and loved?
Why did you end up on that cross where you died?
#poetry#christianity#God#jesus#the bible#I wonder how many Christians I'm going to offend with my poem#I believe in God but i have doubts and this is the shit tbh im an undiscovered genius#yes i am insinuating the apostles lied about some shit#yes i am saying jesus was ratted out by more of the apostles than just judas fight me#he was a man saying he was the icarnation of god#of course people would be jealous and envious#some would see him as a populatity-cow and some would see him as a dick#all behind devotion and praise to a god standing before them#humans are all the same tbh and it's not a large jump to make
