Time to die

Realization
Not really God’s will
Time to die
Not ready
Sorry

Forgive?
Pardon?
Please God!

Sorry!

Need a priest—
Need a lamb!

Who is that?
Governor questioning
No response
Silent before accusers

Not like me
Not at all

Governor questions
Crowd this time

They shout my name
What was the question?

“CRUCIFY!”

Time to die
Not ready

Soldier approaches
Sneering and smirking
Raises fist
Jingle of keys?

Hands unbound
Shoved down hall
Pushed out door

Bright sunlight
Blinding

But now I see
I am pardoned
I am free
He took my place
