A revelation


After Luke 2:25-25 and 2 Corinthians 5:20

He knew, within
the confines of
the place, the city,
because it had been
revealed, only to him,
a personal prophecy,
the time of the wait,
the long wait, that
he would not greet
death until he saw
the king, the one
promised, the one
foretold, the one
named messiah.
That time came,
unexpectedly, a thief
in the night, and
he knew the promise
was fulfilled. He knew
he could now die,
a believer before
believers.
