In the Wine
I offered up my truest and best love
for you
Leaving wishes on the altar
for everyone else
A first and last supper combined
into one
Judas getting fat from a promise
denied
Starved within the memory of a feast
uneaten
My bread forever disappearing
in the wine
(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2016)
