Holy Martyrdom

Unlike those in this age
blowing themselves up in the marketplace
an image of martyrdom in the life of our Lord
dying that we would live again

Standing before the Sanhedrin,
before Pilate, the king,
the Emperor, Pharaoh
sacrificing himself that we may know God
the innocent lamb, the king
going as a servant,
a true follower of God,
a martyr on the cross
