The Man Couldn’t Find Peace (Lrs) Poem by Jordan Legaspi

The man couldn’t find peace

Name is given unto him:
-the bloodline of influence and power,
-the Jewish emblem of unity,
But unto the eyes of Jesus:
-the corrupt nature that wills to kill,
-the man whose greed is his fill;

Crown is given unto him:
-the king of Galilean province,
-the title he clings on as nobility,
But unto the eyes of Jesus:
-the puppet of the Imperial Rome,
-the malicious lord with his empty throne;

Authority is given unto him:
-the trial against the criminal,
-the pronouncement of brutality,
But unto the eyes of Jesus:
-the ruler who mocks his own ignorance,
-the man compels on his own arrogance.
