P>CHESAPEAKE, VA. (Catholic Online) - I have rarely published prose and poetry, but it is my favorite style of writing. After reading Bobby Schindler's story I offer one of the pieces which I wrote when his beloved sister was killed:
"For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work..." St Pauls' second letter to the Thessalonians
The eyes of the world watched, As one more "judge" ruled for death over life
The Rule of Law they cried...while Terri Died
Who is this one who cannot speak? She is a vegetable, of no use in this world of power and utility
The Rule of Law they cried...while Terri Died
Forget the smile; it has no productive value, disregard the mothers' plea, misguided sentiment
The Rule of Law they cried...while Terri Died
The one on the bench, the blind guide leading the blind, has the power now in this brave new world unanchored from truth; his word is the sword
The Rule of Law they cried...while Terri Died
All this talk of religion and solidarity be damned, let the one who cast the bride aside decide
The Rule of Law they cried...while Terri Died
The triumph of the Will ascends, the meek and the weak shudder, the reign of lawlessness begins
The Rule of Law they cried...while Terri Died
