step back from the journey, the road
the revelation of his fate
Like Socrates and his hemlock
brought to his own lips
a cup of crimson
a blood sacrifice
the Passover Lamb
blood shed
for me, for you
A parable in wine
a cup of crimson
shared at his supper
the table of remembrance
repeated and believed
an act of ritual and faith
in the communion
