the room became silent


I must admit it, to be honest,
I went through the motions
of the words of the liturgy
of the Passover Seder
we did it each year
the same, repetition
losing the power
of our salvation story
the room became silent
those of us gathered
hearing new words
changed by Jesus
words of ownership
of a radical transformation
the ancient words now personal
my body, my body, the lamb before us
Christ was foreshadowing the day to come
