Mary Did You Know?

Mary, did you know?

Mary, did you know that your baby boy would eventually become one more brown child killed by state powers?

Did you know that while your baby boy was hanging on the cross that his cause of death would be suffocation?

He couldn’t breathe. He couldn’t breathe. He couldn’t breathe.

Mary, did you know that our hearts break beyond all the words we have to give for all that is still wrong with our world, for all that your son came to heal?

Mary, did you know?
