The freeing of Legion (Mark 5:1-20)
There are
No words.
Only screaming
Silent agony
Black despair
No future
Only death
Utterly alone
And lost
In all
The universe.
No light
No sign
Of grace
No place
To hide
No shelter
No arms
To hold
Only instead
Limitless grief
Overwhelming rage
Paralysing terror
Helplessly trapped
An end
To good
No end
To pain
No rescue
No one
To care
To see
To understand
Reach out
Or touch
And find.
Hope lost
An eternity
Of isolation.
Only silence
And darkness.
This, then,
Is hell.
And then
A boat landed
On the shore.
