VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: Hail Mary

How's your faith these days
Father...
Does it lie dead,forgotten
Dismembered
The masticated pieces
Spat at the feet
Of your stained glass Gods,
Choking your private sanctuary
With the stench of
Decaying hope and rotting promises
How's your faith these days
Father...
Does it hang heavy,cold against
The collar
A bloodstone Rosary strung on
Viens of attrition
Confessions sold in confidence
To cast the Judas cross
In tarnished silver, buffed in repentence
How's your faith these days
Father...
Does it have the sweet persuasion
It once had
Or has the hypnotic drone of
The comforting doggerel
Lost its melodic allure
Or is it all finally
A figment of the contrite collective masses,
Blind moths drawn to fat candles
Lit by weary wanderers here
To illuminate the path
To salvation
How's your faith these days
Father...
