Two Catholic Girls Talking In 1963 Poem by Mai Murphy Venn

Ann, Did you go to mass?

Lilly, No, did you go?

Ann, What do you think?

Lilly, You did not go.

Ann, Does your mother know

Lilly, What do you think?

Ann, No she doesn't know

Lilly, Will she find out?

Ann, What do you think?

Lilly, Sister Mary will tell

Ann, Will we go to hell

Lilly, What do you think?

Ann, Is there a hell

Lilly, What do you think?

Ann, Sure I do not know.

Lilly, Will you find out

Ann, How can I find out?

Lilly, Go to mass and listen.

Ann, Why don't you go?

Lilly, I am afraid to find out.

Ann, Why

Lilly, Why do you think.
