Bitter Sandwich
The scavengers
followed not a word.
In the cave, time merely sped,
blood quenching thirst,
flesh dissolving
into idea -- then the Lord's day.
Certainly the most vital part
of the gift, gratitude
to Himself
being His fulfillment.
Whereas ours
is the consumption of
the loaf,
our freedom to live
mere will to hunger.
