Why is the loan different from the knife?

High Mass Easter Sunday at the Duomo Miserére mei, Deus, secúndum magnam misericórdiam tuam Bread and wine The body and blood of Christ White doves in the sky Sandro Botticelli in the studio Working on Primavera The delicate hand Painting the flowers in the mouth of Chloris Fioretta Gorini She cuts the sweet wisteria For the child she carried eight months Bells ringing in the towers Watch the crowd surge Like the wind in the long grass Shudder then pull back The dead man Blood on the ground Assassin fleeing the people. First part of a longer poem. Comments welcome.
