Non-Erotic PoetryMother Theresa's Moment of Doubtexcept when she thought that she heard
the dulcet voice of Mother there
and thought perhaps her waiting tomb
might really be another womb.
Indeed, she might have hoped for that
for all the foreheads she once wet,
but for the habit she still wore
when she dropped her beads to the floor,

#2 BUT THE FAITH OF THE LEADERS WHEN QUESTION

Nice in its way
This poem belongs a well respected in the Western tradition artistic orbit (type, genre), it is placed about the top of its orbit, and I gave it top score without any hesitation. It's great that GM can write such a poem now and then.

The two commas at the end of line 10 is a typographical error. The periods at the line of line 12 is not.
