What Went ye into the Desert to See?

What went ye into the desert to see?
A pale liturgist swaying in the wind?
A theologian dressed in soft clichΓ©s?
But what went ye to the desert to see?
Thyself, holier than anyone else?
A profit on your Catholic Me-β€˜blog?
But what ye went out there to see?

Go back.  Go back to the desert, and there
See the least grain of sand, larger than thee.
