The bread
They said
Was alive
It entered me
Like paracetamol
Designed to make me
\'Better\'.
But I\'m not ill.
I don\'t need a placebo
Spiritual or otherwise.
I\'m happy alive
No rush to salvation
I\'m already saved
By those I love
Those who know.
I\'ll take my chances.
Others breath sustains me.
Despite death\'s dances
Painted holy for me
I know what\'s right
What\'s wrong
Since the age of 4
I\'ve known all along.
I wasn\'t born in sin.
I\'m good within.
It\'s the word
That scars
The church that scares.
This is the world.
So eat your bread
Drink your wine.
It\'s good as it is.
And yes...
Divine -
A gastronomic sign.........
