herself on the altar – v8

she gave but two coins
how it looked, in object terms,
to the onlookers, to the priests
she gave but two coins
but she gave herself on the altar
the widow in the Temple
offering a gift to God

all that she had, her life,
she gave but two coins, a pittance,
to the onlookers, to the priests
she gave but two coins
but she gave all of what she had
she gave herself on the altar
her life offered unto God
