What are the grapes or grain
that you could leave untouched
for others to
be nourished by?
Perhaps it is the wheat and grapes you leave behind
that go
to make
the bread and wine that will become
the Body and the Blood of God.
What
extra miles have you trod down,
or coats or cloaks provided —
and has your
cheek once felt
the sting of an unearned slap,
and yet you’ve not
returned it
with a blow or protest?
