Pontius Pilate's House, Monday
PILATE
I dreamed I met a GalileanA most amazing manHe had that look you very rarely findThe haunting hunted kindI asked him to say what had happenedHow it all beganI asked again – he never said a wordAs if he hadn't heard
And next the room was full of wild and angry menThey seemed to hate this man -They fell on him and thenThey disappeared again
Than I saw thousands of millionsCrying for this manAnd then I heard them mentioning my nameAnd leaving me the blame
The temple.
