Couple
-She has a reputation for sweetness.
-Deserved?
-Now and again.
-When not?
-Lady Macbeth!
-That tough?
-Add fists.
-How terrible!
-Oh I don’t know. She gives
as well as she gets.
-I don’t believe that, Coward!
You’re certainly stronger,
-But it’s all a kind of Catholic
Mutual Aid Society. I’m Head Priest,
she’s Head Nun. So, worry not.
-Uh huh? And who gets you under
control, Father?
-The Bishop! Her brother. He’s not
much in the pulpit, but practicing
his active brand of the Faith?
-I can remember your face marked
up once or twice.
-Never removes his ring!
-Well it’s all of it goddamn sick!
-Heal thyself!
-Gladly, since nobody gets smacked around.
-Many varieties of Truth.
-None bloody!
-I usually just begin agreeing with
Saints like you, and they eventually
depart with thumb up righteous ass!
-Won’t wave goodbye, then.

The Conference
Faith(s)
-So you represented the laity?
-Midst priests, ministers, rabbis, imams.
The whole ilk.
-What to report?
-First, expropriated our cell phones!
-Good! Isolation from the mean world’s
frenzy.
-We wandered the desert--actually the grounds
of the rococo pile.
-Encountered fellow pilgrims face to face?
-And I’d forgotten how gothic faces are, generally.
-Oh well, did the experiment work?
-Like they all do.
-Phone come back to you?
-They fucked that up too, I got the Bishop’s.
Great porn!
-Surely you couldn't unlock…?
-I prayed for a miracle.
