Sese Immolatus Est

Epigrammata XLIV

“They have ears, but cannot hear.” - Psalm 114:6

Rachael Corrie they say began
The modern tradition, to the man
Of sacrificing men to the jaws
Of that creature without laws;
Now a man, Aaron Bushnell 
Also to this sickness fell;
No god will hear them from the grave
Though 'gainst the devil they were brave
In that church that does not save.
