A Poem from Chenjerai Mhondera | He is Risen Issue 11 | PAROUSIA Magazine

sirene to cyreen

along Dororosa road
tumbling over
and
somersaulting,
trudging
his cross coming over
him
sweat drops,
bruises,
wounds
of infliction

simon the african
hearth
the cries and wails
shouts and screams
he comes –
face to face he comes
with a burdened son of man;
they’re forcing him ( _he is risen_ ) to carry a log
the weighty of it, the world to bear,
he nears
and is forced to carry the log,
he shares the burden
with son of man

sun saw it unbefit
to shine
to death sanctioned
son of man
unclothed

the tomb refused
to hold in its mortuaries
the almighty

the earth wreathed
on the day –
quacking
in fright and with sorrows

and death –
no odd,
hangs there awhile in regrets –
life to release
to
He
is
Risen
