(The highest point capable of being attained)

A twist in time,
When the strong,
Mighty in valour,
Powerful beyond definition,
Took the form of a weakling;
Rejected and denied a chance to survive.
If he had come in His armour and might
Would the story be any different?

A shift in space,
When the rich in glory,
Wealthy beyond measure,
Took the form of a slave,
Not a place his head to lay,
Denied a robe to shield the cold.
If he had come in His magnificent regalia
Would the story be any different?

A turn of event,
When the immortal,
Without a beginning or an end,
Time, space and all events
Wouldn't have meant a thing to Him,
Took the form of a mortal,
Led on through streets,
Upon a Mount and a tree,
He hung and left till the ghost he yielded.
If he had come in His power and might
Would the story be any different?
