WEEPING MULTITUDES
Beaten and bruised. Broken bodies.
Mangled by starvation. Lack of vitality.
Trapped or tripped. Tricked with no choice.
Human slaves. Left to rot in misery.
O, what a Eucharist!
Every tree. Shapes like a cross.
One thing is free. Torture and mis-trust.
Heroes and villains. Keep pushin' and pullin'
Caught in the middle. Have no voice but to saddle.
O, what a Eucharist!
Strewn bodies. The Body and the Blood:
Broken for you. And shed for you.
Death is indeed a resurrection for us.
In dying we liberate the terror of living.
O, what a Eucharist!
[Dedicated to Tamil Civilians in Sri Lanka]
