catholicknight:
Seriously, just for a moment, imagine Fox News writing something like this about Black people and a Black president.
The “apology” that followed the next day added insult to injury as he made fun of confession.
Ree Dic You Luss and bigoted. Worst part is that society doesn’t give a hoot. Be tolerant, but only if someone agrees with you, apparently.

in your absence.
And now
to welcome you
our father says
it must be slain.
The little cow,
so stuffed with grain,

anything to tell me
just where I should go,
what to do,
how to serve
Waiting for a word,
a sign from up above,
a shower of grace
to lead the way
towards God Most High
