breaking bread
passing muster
serving the under served
with time and a half
in half the time
loneliness blankets
provokes and pokes
weakness stabs
strength jabs
empirical miracles
refreshing spirits
unrelenting madness
recovering rhyme and reason
of the season
no particular reason
humans gather to break bread
souls rise and shake their dead
hallmark cards seal the deal
each meal
every bite
hands held tight
holding prayers and promises
hoping they float
on the river denial
warm bed and roof overhead
fire or might
through the night
wait
listen
hear jingling
feel shaking
smell baking
angel's wings and sparkling rings
equalizer
baptizer
cold and sold out
bitter and exhausted
turnstile lines at double doors
assemble masses
arrest routines with faded magazines
wait
hurry up
catch the conga line
step up to the plate
speak up
decide now
act later
feel today
forgive tomorrow
float hope
