For Maria

In deeper Catholicism are revered Victim Souls
Who’s suffering helps everyone in the whole world
If that is true, the rest of us play far lesser roles
In this intermission before the great afterworld

I believe Maria’s temporary earthbound fate 
Might be like those Souls and a prelude to something great  
I believe when she leaves this ever uncertain world
She will be like an angel in the great afterworld.
