Subject: transubstantiation
I just came upon this note to myself written 5 May 2001:


this is not hocus pocus …
nor does it implore dominocus.

this is my body.
this is my blood.

this is not someone else’s story.

it is personal history:
born into humble stable
of human heart;
sacrificed in homage
to human ignorance;
glorified in obeisance
of massing devotees;
defaulting to observance
of evolving norms and beliefs;
realized in awakening self
as everything-nothing-one.

this is mystical body.
