THE LEVITY OF JESUS
THE LEVITY OF JESUS
When He, pale from the grave and risen in all places,
Came back to the doubting world, what excuse is left
After such proffering of the greatest of all assurances.
But, we, with such a strong attraction to guilt, would
Keep mounting the same cross in the belief of ongoing
Unforgiveness; it is the greatest of all deadenings.
In his rising, the saddest mien of hell is healed, and with
Infinite simultaneity all guilt assuaged for there are no
Accusers left but modern Pharisees dying by attrition.
No one went further than He; however, it can happen to
Us who raise our blood to an extended work. To become
A risen one, one must not stay dead among the dead.
The dead have their task; they assist in a way that does not
Distract. What is furthest away from the living reminds us
Within, that like He, we rise and lift them up towards us.
He had his dead but let them go, knowing they were not
Ready to grasp eternal natures believing in the pull of mute
Gravity; having seen his levity, we must go and do likewise
Brilliantly crafted and presented!
