the shouts became cries – v2

the shouts became cries
the climate changing;
the joy of Sunday
became their cries of Friday.

the shouts of “Hosanna!”
of the triumphal entrance
of the Messiah into Jerusalem
before the Passover.

the cries of “Crucify Him!”
echoing on Friday
the judgment on the people
resounding off the Stone Pavement.

the shouts of joy
became the cries of anger
the Messiah before them;
but they did not believe.
