DOMINIC

 

He certainly wouldn't like me

Nor I him but I admit that Dominic,

Godfather of the Inquisition,

Was a hands-on saint, rescuing Servando

By tossing him a small magic hammer 

That broke his chains and then

Throwing him a rope so the saint

Could, hand over hand, pull the scoundrel

From the pit where he was imprisoned.

What adventures they must have had

Making their way back to Christian lands,

Stealing food, sleeping in trees or barns

Or, on cold nights, burrowed in haystacks
