Replying to a comment on:

Silent Night (Free verse) by Dovina

Silent night Wholly night Little calm Little right Neither virgin Mother nor child Wholly fragile Vibrant and wild Sleep in his heavenly peace Sleep 'round his heavenly piece

“Wholly night” is parallel to “Holy night” in the carol. Maybe you know that and think “completely” is better. Maybe so.

I don’t think St. Peter will be impressed with the prosecution’s argument. We are made that way by his Master, and he’d have to explain why this case is sin.

Your “eggshells” comment appears based on the idea that I took a sacred carol and made it vulgar. But think about the words of that song and tell me if you think they should be sacred.
