SUNDAY BEST

If Global Warming hadn't happened,

and if all churches in the Philippines
were as cool and breezy as St. Joseph's in Baguio,


then I really wouldn't mind this:


as things stand, however,
this Catholic Schoolboy has to buy a whole new
NIKE Dri-Fit wardrobe that wicks away sweat
just to hear mass in reasonable comfort.


There's a silver lining to this edict though:
I'll have less room for impure thoughts during mass
once spaghetti straps, sleeveless blouses, miniskirts,
short shorts, and plunging necklines
go the way of the Latin High Mass....
