We share the same cup
and a slice of bread
and call it communion,
but we’re not drinking
wine or grape juice,
and our slice of bread
is the last one we’ll eat.
No one is coming
to save us.
We don’t know this,
so we smile
when our fingers brush
as they reach for the cup,
as we feed each other
the final crumbs.
