“The Christ I Bear (Sonnet 1570) The Christ I know was a colored arab, who took a stand against intolerance. The Christ I know is the antithesis of christian nationalism. Naturally he became object of hate crime, he was the classic case of persecution. Thus the mortal man died for nobody's sin, but due to his own activist intention. The Christ I know was a friend to love, The Christ I know abhorred cruelty. Yet you've made him a badge of horror, justifying your most heinous atrocity. The Christ I bear is a spirit of love, no puny institution can contain him. I am Christ, you are Christ, when there is love, whole world is him.”
