The Numerous Crucifixions of One Man
One Lamb of a Man
Often let his body’s aspects reset
Into whatever the biased
And calloused despised.
Sometimes the changes
Were ethnical,
Racial or sexual.
Many thought
The Lamb of a Man was harmful.
Bearing RED hatefulness,
WHITE supremacists
Had a drought in their BLUE eyes
When they killed that Lamb of a Man.
32 seconds beyond then,
Found in another location,
Bearing RED hatefulness
And GOLD teeth,
Black supremacists
Killed that same Lamb of a Man
To glom his GREEN.
His tempest-uncalm mom
Could not observe
Another undeserved slaughter
Of what her divinity-ensured uterus served.
The father,
While having the appearance
Of a mist,
Did resist
Viewing his son
Join another obit list.
Prior to every time
The Lamb of a Man was killed,
His request spilled,
“Father, forgive them.”
32 seconds beyond then,
Resurrected, undaunted,
The Lamb of a Man
Found other mortals to be tested.
