Soul: too often in your life, you have been spiritually slack
("a day late, a dollar short," and always hanging or sliding back).
But if this is to be your final experience of Lent,
be sure, by every effort of prayer, that it is better spent.
Remember the pattern of exile in Autumn, 1976
(against which the evil one will deploy insidious tricks):
that season was the template still available to trace
for you a contrite path through repentance to PASCHA's abundant Grace.
