Pilate didn’t wait for Christ’s answer

Reading between the lines
a precarious moment
did Pilate understand,
what was he thinking
asking Christ, “What is Truth?”,
but not really waiting
not wanting to know
to confront God’s wisdom
Stopping Christ,
moving on with the motion
the tide moving them on
to the conclusion, the cross
Pilate didn’t wait for Christ’s answer
maybe he knew not to listen
for he did not want to hear
