That I
Patrick Benignus Bennett copyrighted
Symbolism; suffering; sign
Of cross
Symbolic of
Complacency, maybe
Compassion
Can sign cross
For numerous reasons
Pass church, ambulance siren, misfortune
Good fortune, death news, near misses, for a winner
For job, for better job, for better boss(es), leaders, for better through worse and beyond…
Can sign cross, can sign cross sign cross…
Symbolism: through fable
Once upon some two and more thousand years gone-by
Some say there came an almighty boy child cry, that
reverberated across the planet
An altering wailing that was to bring about
As child grew to boyhood through adolescence to manhood, encountered
he inner conflict
As dutiful to Mother and tradesman guardian, he toiled trade
whilst gnawing bid seek
Deeper journeyed, until conflict stilled
Darkness about eased for those who tread his footsteps
Or so the’story goes once upon some two and more thousand years gone-by
Orators then and since have retold, BEHOLD!
Behold boy child, behold man that is not of mankind
Behold water walker; water to wine illusionist, behold
What has been lost on Time’ journey
What has been misrepresented by orators ego jaunts, what
What is not being heard
Why do party tricks overshadow achievement
the’Message!
Why do listeners become enamored with orator and not
the’Subject
Journey two thousand and more, that I
Can sign cross
