Sacramental bread

[tmanzano]

----edit---


At home
I can hear
when sitting quietly
the gnawing

It eats at me
being so clean

Sweeping smooth tile
in long strokes
behind the walls
beyond my broom

The unconquerable pest
exists on an intangible crumb

This home
I can hear
when sitting quietly

The gnawing
eats me,
being so clean

Sweeping
smooth tile
in long strokes

Behind the walls
beyond my broom

The unconquerable pest
exists
on an intangible crumb
