Judas
The one who dips with me
My betrayer is at hand
Do what you are going to do
Do it quickly
Caught red handed
Betrayal—
Betrayer, I am branded
Sealed with a kiss
The deed is done
I’m exposed. All is amiss.
30 pieces of silver
Clash against cobblestones
Splashed out under the overtones
I was paid and now I am alone
Hung from the proceeds
Buried in the land that bleeds
In the Potter’s Field
Dangled from a tree
Blood spilled out and burst asunder
Buried under guilt below broken noose
Turned inside out and cut loose
Death and consequences revealed
