His Religion

By Angeline Vine

Every night he went 
into Mrs. Foosebah's bathroom
and whizzed all over her seat

He confessed this
to a guy named Sal who
was sitting at the snack bar
at the bowling alley

so he felt as if
he had 
some form of religion
due to his confession

When someone asked . . .
he said he was Catholic

I was raised Catholic. And I thought to myself when I was 4-5 looking at those pics of Jesus & Mary Magdalene that those two are a couple :)
