Whitechurch
“Funny place most of the time, but on a Sunday morning after church is letting out it’s a differently funny place than usual. Particularly considering that it’s a town named after the very church almost everyone is piling out of. And added to that we still do black Sunday clothes here, so we can be a pretty scary lot, dark-clouding it up and down our streets.
We’re on our way home from church. It happens a few times a year. It is Pauly’s idea. It is never my idea to go to church. Not that I have... anything against church. There is plenty to recommend it. It is the tallest building in town. And the pointiest. There is no spot in town where your eye isn’t pulled to this brilliant white god rocket of a steeple, and you can’t help thinking, Yes, something goes on there. Board this rocket, and you will go someplace.
It is a suggestive building, and maybe if services consisted of walking around and around and around it, then that might be the thing. But now and then I go inside and—no bang.MoreLess
