The Trans Haggadah Companion BY BEV YOCKELSON

 The Trans Haggadah Companion 

On this night
             I remember Nachshon
             who was not Moses who
                         walked into the Red Sea
                         and called for God
                                                  to meet him there
On this night
             I am only a body and you
                                                  are only a body
On this night
                         nothing is hidden
                         only the afikomen
On this night
                         God was here and I
                                                            I knew it
