I Thirst

Simple words, yet layered with import
written to understand, in these simple words
hidden details, clues to a deeper meaning
for this purpose, to fulfill
to teach the Jewish people
hyssop, to see the connection
the Passover, the Lamb
blood to protect them
the Lamb, the sacrifice
the same, the same with Christ
the blood to protect us
written on the cross
