Sunday School<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s Sunday
\nand You\u2019re
\nDriving,
\nbut not to
\nChurch,<\/p>\n

Where a
\nChild-Like You
\nwas once
\nInstructed
\nto Turn Off
\nThe Radio,<\/p>\n

Lest the Beatles,
\nor the Stones,
\nor, God Forbid,
\nthe Doors,<\/p>\n

Should
\nLead You into
\nDancehalls or
\nTheaters or
\nWorse.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s Sunday,
\nand You\u2019re
\nDriving,
\nbut not to
\nChurch,<\/p>\n

Your Ears
\nplugged in to
\nSlow Dances by
\nWinnetka Bowling League.<\/p>\n

Feeling
\na bit Guilty.<\/p>\n

Perhaps, instead,
\nYou Should Be
\nPraying or Meditating,
\nContemplating
\nThe Divine,<\/p>\n

Not the Likes of
\nWalk the Moon doing
\nAnna Sun.<\/p>\n

Then Your Angel,
\nYour Guide,
\nThe One You call
\nElizabeth,<\/p>\n

Appears in the
\nDancehall of
\nYour Mind,
\nGrinning and Swaying,
\nand Flinging Love,<\/p>\n

Reminding You,<\/p>\n

Thus Sayeth
\nThe Lord:<\/p>\n

Let There Be
\nDance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
