THE
REAL
GOOD
NEWS
The Good News is…
In fear and joy
That apprentices are
Still altar boys.
And Tabernacles on
Sacrificial altar
Rebound the sounds
Of David’s Psalter.
The entire year
Our missals hold
Celebrating cerebrally
The new and the old.
Sarcophagus seasons
Of abstinence and fast
Absolves the flesh
Buries sins past.
And liturgy’s vernacular
Constantly feigned
Pales ‘fore Precambrian
Death’s Latin had reigned.
For truth nails eternal
In Catholicity
Through minutes of centuries’
Mediocrity.
