TOO CLOSE TO CALL

(For the Parish Priest)

By Tikum Mbah Azonga

The debate is on
And its on in earnest
Call mass boys and the mass boy girls
They are the new breed
They know how to prepare wine for mass.

Don`t tell them at high mass
Nothing will sink in because they are full of wine
Tell them at low mass
Because the tides have receded
And do so before the catechist locks the sacristy.
