rudimentary method



During our recent writer's strike....

the editor's attention was again drawn to the famed poem by UW Professor Ronald Wallace's ode from his book of poetry entitled Long for This World - BLESSINGS.

It is rendered strugglingly above, as read at the editor's Knights of Pythias lodge meeting last week. He felt enfranchised to read it (during The Good of The Order time) in his role as The Prelate, offerer of divine invocations, benedictions and dispatcher of spiritual guidance.

The lodge sat hushed after the reading. The secretary, brother Gary Parker, deeply moved, asked for a copy of the poem for inclusion in the minutes.
