Carrying: A Poem

Judas

He went away alone to die, into

the nothingness. Carrying sins

his own

Gave up his spirit in despair.

Jesus

He went away alone to die, into the

nothingness. Carrying sins

not his own … and Judas,

Gave up his spirit in hope.

  1. I like it, though I’m a little confused: do you mean Jesus was carrying Judas, or that he was carrying Judas’ sin?
