The Passion: From Gethsemene to Golgotha

After the torchlight red on sweaty faces

After the frosty silence in the gardens

After the agony in stony places

The shouting and the crying

Prison and palace and reverberation

Of thunder of spring over distant mountains

He who was living is now dead

We who were living are now dying

— T. S. ELIOT, The Waste Land

I want to be bruised by God.

I want to be strung up in a strong light and singled out.

I wanted to be stretched, like music wrung from a dropped seed.

I want to be entered and picked clean.

– CHARLES WRIGHT, “Clear Night”
