Reaming screams, ranting raves

Life is a trip to the grocery store
no double coupons today

The produce manager shrieks
and throws wilted heads of lettuce
at passing customers

Outside a tow truck driver wrestles
a pregnant patron to the ground
her car intent to impound

"too close to the fire hydrant"

Hardcore sexual deviance is alive and well in Kansas City

The city council tried to pass an ordinance

The local churches formed prayer groups

The local middle school built a theme park

32,000 feet overhead a 747 purged it's holding tanks

A condom fell to the ground in the middle of the park,
wrinkled in a shape oddly resembling a bust of Theodore Roosevelt

Letters were written and the Pontiff paid a visit

A bronze statue was constructed at a cost of $154,000

The plaque read: "On this spot at precisely 9:04 am, December 15 1997, a miracle occured for which we have no explanation".

Hominy, Dominy

Does the Pope eat grits?

Does the sacred gown have a bib?

Does he sop his biscuits?

I've wondered more than once if the circumstances
were different, and Rome were in Alabama

Would the popemobile have a confederate flag
and fog lights
and huge knobby tires?

If coercion were all it took to snatch food from the starving
and build huge cathedrals in the middle of slums
Would not the pope maybe hit you over the head
with a beer bottle....and steal your car.
