Cilice
inspired by The Da Vinci Code

Muttering silent oaths under his breath
A master zealot looking skyward for vindication
Redemption can't come soon enough
Clothed in only scars across his back
and the barbs around his thigh
With only a tug his punishment will come
and he will be cleansed
The barbs pierce the skin, but not his heart
To him the path to salvation leads through pain
