After His Time in the Desert

After his time in the desert
after his baptism
the spirit upon him
steeling his steps

Denying the devil
he returned to his hometown
claiming the mantle
his calling from above

The carpenter’s son
no longer his persona
claiming the words of Isaiah
to guide the rest of his life

Changed forever, the Christ
and his hometown
unable to see the Messiah
standing in their midst
