image and simile of him who lives...
touched by a poet's words
[ 1 ]
[ 2 ]
[ 3 ]
[ 4 ]

[ 6 ]
...and thus became one of them that are inhumane...
Image and simile of him who lives,
a son of man.
Did not desire power,
neither reputation,
and did not surrender himself
to the form of this world.
[First verse of a song for Good Friday
Text by Dutch theologian and poet Huub Oosterhuis.]
