A Prophet Has Walked Among You
They shall know that a prophet has been among them
Ezekiel 2:5
You should be able to tell
by the imprints left by his sandals.
Is there evidence
that a heavy beam was dragged behind him?
You should be able to tell
since he was shunned
by those who knew him most,
by those who'd seen him
when he was less serious about life.
You should be able to tell
by the words
spoken from his mouth,
or by the results of his hands being laid
on the afflicted.
A prophet walked among you.
The lamb stood in your presence
and you said,
"Not him. He is just a carpenter.
Not him. He is unacceptable,
even in his own home."
