Jesuit McNitt

the carpenter,

a prominent Jesuit

 

by name of Tom McNitt,

 

did his requisite

quite handy bit,

 

most anyone would admit:

 

he worked at that damn kitchen

sink too long and hard,

 

then made the counterfeit

allegory appreciated

after googling, but you and Mark should remember most of the world hasn't heard of obscure american anchormen and wrestlers, and don't want to. Will reach for a dictionary for any poem, happily, or just for fun, but to have to google these two losers was a waste of time cheers, Jess

Googlers

Well, Jess, now you've got me doing it. Trying to figure out what you googled and why. Anyway, I've never heard of any Jesuit Tom McNitt in particular. I made him up. And seriously, I don't want to have to first google each proper name I choose for a poem just to make sure it's not some real person present or past. Chuck
