Harsh Eucarist

Blood soaks the streets in your name Eating offal in the rain The dogs of war are howling As the rain washes it down the drain Empty shells fall to the ground Everywhere rotting bodies are found We are bound, gagged, beaten and raped Blood soaks the streets in your name.

beautifully penned; Holy Eucharist is the Sacrament in which Jesus Christ gives his Body and Blood ... Jesus also prayed for His disciples, who likewise had to suffer harsh trials
