First Communion
Three bells rung thrice boys kneeling,
a candle at the altar burning,
god’s portrait on the ceiling,
priest lifts a holy wafer,
do mythic circles make us safer?
Priest bowing priest turning,
golden chalice drunk dry,
should I laugh or should I cry,
once more, with feeling:
a greenhorn skater on the ice,
a mythic dance can be appealing
a greenhorn skater on the ice,
a mythic dance can be appealing
