At Cyrene, 2

When we had reached the knoll, He could not speak,
so injured was He.  But I did not seek
His thanks, nor Rome's.  Simply to get away,
I hoped, and salvage some part of that day.

I did not understand, then, the event;
or what, to worldly sin and mine, it meant;
or how that man, by dying, salvaged me
not just that day, but for Eternity.

So true. Jesus was such an inspirational figure, and he inspires me in every clause of my writing. What a holy, true, and incredible poem. It captures the soul quite amazingly.
