Suburban Christianity

“I have no window to look into another man’s soul.”
-attributed to St. Thomas More and others

O pray in silence at the foot the Cross
In humility before the Altar of God
The ancient usages honored aright
Befitting the dignity of His Church

And place all hopes and sorrows quietly there
Along with any haloes, skipping the selfies
And the waving moments of look-at-me
He knows, you know, so let the drama go

Suburban Christianity? Well, yes:
Golgotha is a suburb of Heaven
