The word King on Christ’s sign – v21

Words of defiance, to shame them
to speak out loud the truth
The bold assertion, the power
the speaking of truth to their claim
Caesar’s emissary, their oppressor,
sticking his thumb in their eye;
The word, “King”, on Christ’s sign

Not something less than that
the word, “King”, on Christ’s sign
Pilate proclaiming, speaking
truth to their power, false
Naming their crime, blasphemy
not seeing, eyes blind;
Killing the Son of God
