JudasA Multi-Verse Haiku by Dorothy Flint |
|
When was yesterday? Was it only yesterday That I supped with him? That he washed my feet? We had been all together In the upper room But, tempted by greed, I agreed to point him out To the waiting guards To show which was he So that they could arrest him And take him from us Thirty silver coins Thirty pieces of silver That was all it took To betray my Lord But, after, filled with remorse, Cast the purse from me I, overcome by grief I cannot live with this guilt Better to end it My name is Judas Judas Escarriot I'm the betrayer |
