here the breaking of the bread
veiled in context of their stark hotel room
as she undoes her belt
he his buttons
he a poor and broken god
coming to her
in the shedding of clothes
the wary looks
quiet gestures
intent unspoken
this is my broken body,
for you
take this
for the forgiveness
of whose sins?
