"It was fitting"
Strange words to utter
From the mouth of God
Scholars stutter
"strange words indeed”
and writing, proceed
their commentaries
God’s word made fit
Unfittable things
Unstained majesty
Nailed up, and spit
Bedecked
and wrecked
the majesty
To infinite degree
Horrific travesty
What makes some stutter
Makes other sing
or leap, or weep, with deep
Joy, transforming
For what was fitting
For him
Is fitting
For his brothers
And sisters
Flesh and blood
Who find themselves
Bedecked
With spit
Because that travesty
Was not the floor
But the door
That exploded
To majesty
Reloaded
Far better than before.
