Two processions

Five days earlier they'd cheered the coming King.
Simon had been looking forward to a peaceful Passover.
The earthly Powers had been shaking.



But the Hosannas echoed back as "Crucify", and died away as sobbing.
Simon had a job to do.
And it wasn't the earthly Powers that were shaking.

"Stations of the Cross" from St Alban the Martyr, Holborn.
