Now, I can sleep.
The last man on earth sat down in his chair. There came a knock on the door.
It was a woman.
So, Pope Leo XIV said Mass and the woman translated his Mass.
The Sequence of this “Mass”, of course, is Gordon Lightfoot’s “Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald” translated into Latin. And you know, in a strange sort of way it would work sung to the melody that Lightfoot wrote, which has a chantlike repetition.
Nope. I can’t sleep.
I forgot Saint Teresa of Calcutta and her Missionaries of Charity. Whenever I sent Mother Teresa money, Mother Teresa sent me a handwritten thank you note.
