Cedar Communion

Blood and body consumers
Check calories and the price per ounce
When once again grabbing groceries
From Harmonious Fallen Angel Mart

You may no longer feast beyond heaven's gates
But your benedictions resurrect
The faith and love and heart
That lay across every ring
Of the tree that won't be hugged

Cut to be sure
It's the opposite cure
A poison taken 
To slake the thirsty throat

Sweat box evenings 
Are built from brewed mornings
And walks that extend from
AM to PM to dusk
