One Week

"in one week...

you retreat to the desert - if you are found - you will be
arrested.

you share in a meal prepared in your honor...
teaching others a lesson in what it truly means to honor.

you are celebrated by the masses with cheers of gladness and hope.
and yet you remain
humble.

the turmoil and
stress of knowing what is about to happen begins to creep into your mind.

you
foreshadow the inevitable. but they don't understand."
