odd

new orleans
the days hotel
broken remote
broken clock
broken phone
 like a Bob Dylan song
my 18 year old son and i walked burboun street last night
a carnival
a circus
milling humans
bizarre
strange
 like a Tom Waits song
i kept thinking
"Jesus, You died for all of this
You love every soul walking this broken street
this boulevard of the beguiled"
He whispered to me,
"I even love you with all your hidden sin"
i thanked Him for reminding me
today after Mass at the St. Louis Cathedral,
we will see the saints play
what an odd world..
