Growing up in an Irish Catholic household, I was awash in that religious and social culture. I end up tapping it in poems every so often because it holds such a rich lexicon of meanings for me. As comic/actor Denis Leary comments wryly during one of his stand-up routines, you may leave the church, but the church never leaves you -- no matter how hard you try to give it the slip. Atticus
