Sunday Sports Bar
It was Sunday and we slept in
and skipped Mass
instead settled for a cozy little
tavern offering a brunch buffet and
make-your-own Bloody Mary bar
Flat screen TVs lined the upper
walls between knick-knacks and
artwork and craft beer signs
airing multiple football contests
and golf and X games
In the far back corner a dozen
patrons encircled a table
the television above them
airing the Papal visit in Philadelphia
every once in a while whooping
it up and pumping their fists
signaling to all the faithful
the Pope had scored again
september two thousand fifteen

How dare they introduce religion into Sunday sport. Is nothing sacred?
nothing has been sacred in my lifetime – not that I can remember….
I think this is a most interesting take on the papal visit. Your imagination has scored again.
thank you very much and so happy you think so
