Dying for Your Sins (Free verse) by drnick

See this godless man, his head hung low as if he's self-crucified. All his sins, insecurities, regets -they find a way through his flesh. Let it all out in those rusted tears. They'll laugh, they'll cry, for two thousand-some years.

Good stuff, I think I agree with Dovina about "he's" and "insecurities", maybe replace it with "passions"? Love the wordplay in "rusted tears" (tears cried, tears in the skin).
One suggestion; after regrets, how about 'every one finds a way out...' - a little more working around the double meaning in here.

Good to see you about, I hope the semester ends well for you!
