Pharmakos [Scapegoat] edit
PHARMAKOS
the world I knew had never seen
a madness such as this
for Man has fallen a second time
and there is no Lamb to crucify;
was one man’s Blood not precious
enough to satisfy this God’s fury
for the failure of Creation:
we are lost in a never-ending vortex
of transgression and retribution
’
and sadly n many ways, we are
Victim and Executioner.
