Before the feast, an anointing,
which is to say I see you
which is to set the table
in hope
that when bread falls
like grain of wheat to soil
we may break
and eat a chorus
of amens.
Oil of perception.

Now THIS is a graceful poem!
Bartholomew, thank you.
I love the phrase “a chorus of amens.” Beautiful.
