Take Away the Stone

How the words must have sounded
within his own head
only he alone knowing
what the words meant
the one in the cave
in the cold tomb
called out by Jesus
that he would be healed
reborn, in this life
take away the stone
the dead, walking living
take the clothes from him
and let him go
alive, reborn
removed from the tomb
