BREAD

Bread broken, sliced,

cut, shared, sitting

with you at this table,

sharing words, wine

and each other.
This is me.

This is my body

and if you betray me

in the night or crucify me

on some Bad Friday,

I’ll make it good with

forgiveness and love.

I’ll make it a Good Friday.

This is me. This is how I love

and how I want to eat with you,

how I want to be with you,

how I'll rise with you 

every Easter Sunday morning.
