TWO OR THREE – by Bruce Prewer.
When was it that
the mind-set of the church
forgot about the two or three
and became more impressed
by quantity?
Did they default
and lose the Christly plot
when homes gave way to ornate hall
and liturgy was bent
to crowd control?
In whose new name
did the thanksgiving prayers
of ordinary enthusiasts
became a solo act
for specialists?
How did the bread
broken by common hands
become elite exclusive dues
dispensed by robed priests
to solemn queues?
When will we count
the two or three as blest
and learn before it is too late
the secret of the Guest
who makes small great?
Matthew 18:20
