Blueness

Six million dead

and the blueness

of a wound, scars

in the inward parts,

is there a blueness

to revive us? None.

But the bruises

of a perfect lamb

chastised for peace,

for justice, for mercy.

His blue bruises mingled

with scarlet cleanses

white, weightless white.

See hidden here in the

prophets’piercing pages

of shadowy mysteries.

Blue and scarlet mixed

turned purple, fitting

for a king,

while the blind behold

blinding sunlight and

Him, whom they pierced.
