leavened bread
eaten at the Last Supper,
another name for yeast,
dough without leaven
is powerless, absent of
extra flavor, a break with
the past,
flour and water
kneaded well, the
dough rises, Jesus
had his reserve for a
starter, saved a little dough
each time to add to his next
batch,
leavened bread
is an invisible force
that spreads, symbolism
from the one who is an ancient
writer, leaven is a powerful image,
Mt 13:33 Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
Lk 13:20 And again he said, Whereunto shall I liken the kingdom of God? 21 It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.

Or is it the perceived impression of my own consciousness?
Which for me (this photo) allowed my mind to see a relic of
the Paleolithic cudgel femur bone, scourged from battle of nearby war tribe…
Or from the German Nazi concentration camps…
but it was a “Buford Stick” at first sight either way.
Then I seen the char markings which also upon this look-
looked like bruises or aged human bone. But then looking more
at the chars I thought fresh tortilla & tied that into the title…but then
my mind’s eye seen the portrait symbol & “Jesus Ate: The Story of Leavened Bread”
unfolded to offer and share these gifts of your words….and then
my mind recalled my Salvational Rescue Cookies I made last week…
(you see how my mind races around?)
polite people call it the gift of gab…but some call it bi-polar,
but I wonder why does it have to be an “it” anyway? See what I mean…
Let’s break & share life’s bread
I know how to churn butter
