Nativity of Mary



THE
NAZARETH


MINES

When Rome was
Of the world –
And Master Moon
Was free –

And Mistress Midnight
Bedizened -
In show-star
Finery.

A tiny sparkle
Caught,
Miss Mistress Midnight’s
Eye -

And captured Master
Moon,
Who paled
And gasped a sigh -

But Rome still
Of the world,
Had doctors observe
Ceiling signs -

And missed the Immaculate
Diamond -
Debouching from
Nazareth mines.










“But a bud is springing from the root of Jesse; and the poison of the serpent shall not infect it, nor shall his foul breathings blight its beauty. The Adorable Trinity is about to pronounce the creative word: "Let the Mother of God be made".

Sons...


BROTHER’S
KEEPER

I remember
Little boys
Running all day
Long in noise.

Kicking balls
To the others
Sometimes kicking
Their own brothers.

Then a fist fight
On the ground
In the leaves
Roll round and round. 

I would grab
Each one by ear
“You don’t stop?
There’s much to fear!”

Put them in their
Bedroom, hot
Forced to sit
And talk a lot

To learn they were
Their “brother’s keeper”
Crucifixed walls
Drew them in deeper

Into the mystery
Of the cross
The sign of life
A sign of loss.

Would they be
Just passers-by
Or like the “good thief”
In Him, die.

I remember
Little boys
Running all day
Long in noise

And as the slope
Of sin grows steeper –
Be Christ’s “good thief”
And “brother’s keeper”.

SSPX Priests & other Christs

DO
NOT
TOUCH

(meditation on hands of the Priest)

She who had
Washed His feet
With silver tears
At Jesus’ seat

“Do not touch Me”

She at the tomb
To Him did speak
Did not recognize
His glorious physique

“Do not touch Me”

He then said,
“Mary”, she turned…
“Rabboni”, she cried
Reaching, she yearned

“Do not touch Me”

“Whose sins you shall forgive
They are forgiven
Whose sins you shall retain
They are retained”

“This is My Body”

Appearing to His men
The chosen, in fear
“Now it’s complete”
From the Last Supper to here

“This is My Body”

“Put in thy finger”
“Put it into My Side”
“It is…Myself” you “ handle”
Glorified!
