Around us. Everyone needs
Something to worship.

Your God is a man,
You say mine is a monster.
Religion judges.

So I worship the
Flying Spaghetti Monster?
I enjoy pasta!

where once the prayers of many rose
now silence, sacred silence
where once the holy beads of water purified
now dry and dusty, unforgiving
the smoke plumes all around
the shriek of jets, the thud of bombs
no longer piercing the air
but still piercing the memories
the city surrounding still ablaze
but the cathedral
the steeple, still standing upright
for all teary eyes to pay homage to
still rising above the ashes
and soon the citizens
steadfast and hopeful, prayerful still
the flock, they will return
st. paul will guide them
as he always has

said, “because some like it hot,
go eat more kung pao.”

Mother Theresa:
seen in a cinnamon roll,
made religion sweet.

The Virgin Mary
appeared in salsa.  Again,
’cause some like it hot.

Assignment: salsa
