The Morsel of Bread – v15

Sharing in that meal, as did all the others,

the meal, Passover, but totally different

Christ’s invocation, the intoning of the words

these words of the teacher, the master, Rabbi

changing the ancient words of remembrance

saying something entirely new, a new covenant

the morsel of bread dipped, shared from His hands

His words to go, to do that which is planned quickly

not knowing what to think, to do, in this moment

doubt, confusion, but steps already set in motion

unable to return, to pull back

the wheels of time turning

his body, his blood, his sacrifice,

dripping on my hands, running in the night
