it is held by some Christians that, during communion, the bread and wine used is, when consecrated, the actual body and blood of Christ. this is called transubstantiation.

some scientists hold that the atomic number of an element can be changed by bombarding it with neutrons or other atomic particles. they call this the transmutation of elements.

wine turns into blood.
bread turns into flesh.

if people in a village are bombarded with radioactive particles they are turned into ghosts when they begin to believe.

for Vaughan

” Corn, Sunflower raise their faces toward Sun as she slides into
place among blue heavens.
Squash send floral swirls orange-red up into ground fog mist.

-
An ant angles his way watching constantly for morsels along the
path.
Violet morning glories stream upward reaching with their petals
wide open for bursting light.

-
Rays split seams of blue casting hopeful yellow-white strokes
beaming brightly. Seasons later,
Red Sioux Quartzite speckled white by snow and fully ice-crusted,
holds firm hallowed Sioux Falls grounds nearby.

-
Glass flows, creating prisms in century-aged windows across this
room. Rainbows flourish here. Long ago,
Black Dog spoke to his master, foretold the coming world flood in
time for a raft to be built sparing Real People.

-
Children in Quebec, before encroachment, pleaded for maple
sweets each fall. Were pumpkin lanterns lighted?
In my Huron grandmother’s midwifing beaded bag, the entire
universe gleams at me through pointed stars in dreams.”
