         Reversal<br />


Pilate sat upon his judgment seat
Considering the man.
“Have nothing to do with that just man,”
His wife had said.
He could have listened to her,
But the multitudes were louder.
And so…
Almighty God sat upon His judgment seat,
Considering the man.

JH, A clever way of looking at the situation. Ell, I have never liked that saying, and I'll tell you why. Years ago, when I got into a big fight with my stepfather and left home, he said to me 'The worm always turns'. I have forgotten all the other unkind things he said, but that one. I dunno why, maybe because worms are slippery and slimy, live in the dirt, and are used for bait. JP

JP, Thanks, usually when I try to be clever it never works out. Especially if I correct someones spelling. jhs

I haven't heard from John in a couple of years. I hope he's doing well. We all miss his writing.
