SAFE

SAFE

His every cell was torqued with pain
As He partook the cup –
His back already torn to shreds
As He was lifted up.

His agony was so complete
It left no hurt unturned –
His empathy was infinite –
He perfectly discerned

The anguish of humanity –
Inequity’s deceit –
The widow and the fatherless
Redeemed by His “defeat.”
