Mass

in front of alter
celebrating Eucharist 
down on bended knee

bringing together 
for strength and serenity
suffering heart prays

What America needs right now is bended knees in prayer. Enjoyed reading your faith based work. Sara

Lovely, Eve, and yes, that one contest was confusing but I just tried to figure it out. Thankfully I figured it right!

I love the way this counters Colin Kaepernick's irreverent (and I ought to say irrelevant!*) bent knee. Kudos to you, Eve. : *The 'poor oppressed' fellow just collected $11.4 million for three years for (not) tossing a football, and now is a national spokesman for Nike. PROOF positive there of 'systemic racism,' I guess.... Thanks again for your worshipful write! Blessings, Gershon

He has done more for the oppressed than you ever did or will do, and yes only someone with white privilege would make such an ignorant statement.
