The holy 12 gather for the Last Supper of bread and wine.
In there intoxicated stupor ---- wondering who will take the silver!
As the candles fall one by one.
While wondering whose hands will caress the sacks of gold?
Angel ---- floundering into the void.
The shadow from the cross has already fallen strangulated.
