Right After The Bell
The Baltimore Catechism,
mornings at eight
Sister Marcella,
don't ever be late
Its message didactic,
the devil to run
Each question, each answer,
with God zero-sum
Who and what made me,
and why every day
Resistance was futile,
dissent not displayed
An altar boy's memories,
his sacristy torn
Still missing the process
-where freedom was born
(Saint Thomas of Villanova Chapel: December, 2021)
