The Crucifixion
Trembling on a high hill / wind-tossed and closed
hanging-Christ / with dead eyes
sees no star / which has light,
clings to nothing / but sorrow-banner
held high, clings to / nothing but cold blast
baring frailty / that feels nothing,
not wind, nor hunger, light / or thought can feel
nothing but pain, / this pain will quiver
to this hill, how long? / He will, yes,
broken only by His / sighs, forsaken, why
hast Thou, God, / why? shall linger
this question on / but not bound
unanswered the wind / roars, must say Son,
for Son forgives His / sins, too, cries
for quivering pain / of Ours, shall wash
away this storm, / this blood shall
flow throughout.

You've used a very effective light gradient going from fully illuminated at the bottom to the darkness at the top of the photo. Also, you've captured wonderful detail in the walls that give the photo even more depth. Nice work.
