One Yeshua of Yahweh,
a scandalous God
of suffered love,
full of sweat, sinew
and blood in obscure
Nazareth, no news
in the Jerusalem tabloids.
Breathing in sawdust
in the carpentry shop
while telling a joke
in Aramaic with a
Hebrew punch line.
Started walking the
hills and teaching
loving the enemies.
So Jewish a man
he enraged some
religious leaders;
slaughtered upright
naked then rises
from rigid death.
Who does that?
