'A prophet is without honour in his own country' <br /> Jesus Christ <br /> <br /> <br />Oh, lover of sweet honeycombed boys <br />Lost within a turbulent love <br />That dare not speak its name <br />Imprisoned for two years hard labour <br />In Reading Goal with only a small barred window <br />Giving a patch of blue to keep you sane. <br />Dying disgraced and alone in Paris <br />Crucified without a lover's farewell kiss.<br /><br />Colin Ian Jeffery<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/oscar-wilde-4/
