Raymond A. Foss Poems

Both of them
“sons of the father”
their names parallel
but such different paths

The revolutionary
insurrectionist
trying to overthrow Rome

The preacher
Messiah
bringing love instead

Standing before Pilate
the seat of power
from outside
Jerusalem in fire that day

Barabbas to be freed
love going to the cross
to die for all our sin
to heal the breach within
