Luciferous Silver
thirty pieces
melted into
a costly ornament hung.
Gleaming icicles drape it
in a stream of tears,
for Judas who
denied the Christ mass,
long after the shimmering star,
of the virgin birth,
led to his meteoric death.

The instant I read this, I fell in love. Not even kidding. I am a huge Bible freak, so this caught me right off the bat. I love it.
