He set his face resolutely
and a rising star was born
he loved his own absolutely
absorbing undiminished scorn
set his standard on a cloud
he would not compromise
his compassion was disallowed
and proved his demise
he ignored revered traditions
establishing as present fact
peace with no preconditions
grace in an unforgettable act
he came to be considered
as one unfit to live
the callous and embittered
he prayed, "Father, forgive"
he left no debt outstanding
no monument or shrine
no law more demanding
to let our light so shine
we who indeed are poor
unclean and defiled
are loved to the very core
as the resurrected child
a new and living path
in joy all else to serve
in Christ the end of wrath
karma thrown a curve.
