Senseless sin



Soldiers pierced Jesus’ side with a spear.
His death was not in vain I’m told.
“TASER, TASER-“
Bang!
Blood spilling onto the spring damp pavement.
Who is he dying for?
His age? Gender? Race?
Maybe a combination of the three.
Police pierced Eric Harris’s side with a bullet.
His death is not in vain I’m told.
Roman soldiers are closer than we think.
Modern day crucified.


Is this what it is like to live in genocide?
