CAMPIN' IN CHICAGO by Hilary McRee Flanery (based on my own family life)

CAMPIN\
"Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy birthin' and I will give you..." "Yours, mine and..." Who cares! From the heartland of America meet the "Fighting-Flanigans", that's Flanigan with one "n" in the first syllable because someone dropped the other "n" in the ocean on the way over from the Sod!

CATHOLIC

IMPORTANT INTERVIEW"Similar to Opus Dei?"Schmidberger responds: "Somewhat."
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.
