Final Suppers
by Mandla Gobledale
The loaf is plentiful
I give and receive
I eat the bread
It is passionately red
Bitter as betrayal
I drink the wine
Prayer is uttered
Everyone is fed
I eat the bread
Everyone is offered
None refuse
I drink the wine
All are forgiven
None are abandoned
We eat the bread
We drink the wine
