THE YEAR ONE
Striving with a new season
rebels throwing stones
for their liberation
from Rome
On a hellish Styx of treason
by cursing earth and river,
near a candle,
an ancient prophecy
sparking
an enlightened rebirth
reporters covering a sacrifice
of a god king dying for a price
by offering his long suffering
in his shiver of bones
on an enlightening
day spring.
