Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

Unrighteous, unholy tribunal
illegal trial, false witnesses –
Love ridiculed, mocked as blasphemy
The shadow of accusation, of cruel judgment
of innocence branded sin
of the sin of man heaped on this noble soul
unblemished sacrifice, the Messiah
denied his crown, thorns to come
after accusation, lies, and the spittle
the curses, the false sentence
hanging heavy on his soul
