BLACK FRIDAY HAIKU



Three on a Hill, Jamestown, NC
Bowed, Jamestown, NC


Three were led away,
carrying Roman crosses.
They were crucified,
high on the place of the Skull.

Two were criminals,
while the third was innocent.
One found faith at last,
and was forgiven by one.

The innocent one,
cried “Eloi, Eloi”.
It was the ninth hour.
“Why have you forsaken me?”

Three hours of darkness,
acquiesced to heaven's light.
And Jesus cried out,
as He bowed, “It is finished.”
