Sacramental

 

It is time to lower our heads and prey
on thick tendons, blood-worn thin.
The grey ones stumble and shriek,
necks outstretched past the eucharist.


We bound and leap for tender young,
fresh meat scurrying to futility.
Savage rhythms bless torn verdure —
anointed bones on which we feed.
