Though we are all sorry sinners, not worthy to sing God's praises, we must. The trick is to not let concerns for "Christian stealth" transform us into poets who end up serving a second master. "Platform" has its draw, but we can't let a wide concern for Catholic culture become no culture at all. We can't be so concerned with success that our poems lose their distinguishing content. Jesus is Lord of all the earth.Using a conversational style lifted from Collins and Coleridge, these poems seek to bring a world to light where He has always been alive and active, where he reigns in complete power, worthy of all our praise.May He forgive us all our sins and change us in the twinkling of His eye before our journey ends.

  • THE HAY AND THE BARN
    DAVID CRAIG
    The Hay and the Barn is a joyful, profound poetic meditation, based on the penultimate year of Gabrielle Bossis's devotional classic, He and I. One might even call it a conversation. Jesus reveals Himself in both her entries and in the poems which come out of them. (This should not surprise us, as He does so in every moment of our lives.) In this book we see Bossis move toward ...

  • THE LEFT HAND OF GOD
    DAVID CRAIG
    It's a mistake to insist on an upper middle-class gospel. Orthodox Catholic universities can fall into this trap, as any privileged person can. What matters is spiritual poverty. This is what we are called to, to take the lowest part--always. After all, the only sins we can really know are our own. These poems are an attempt to foreground that problem, that solution. May they g...

  • MERCY WEARS A RED DRESS
    DAVID CRAIG
    The work of a wonderful secular poet, Billy Collins, provides a great model for Christian writers. His Coleridge "conversation poems" allow for real play and comedy, all in the service of profundity. These are veins that have not been suitably mined by poets who have access to the larger humanity that only Jesus can provide. But there's more than comedy in this collection. The ...

  • PILGRIM’S GAIT
    DAVID CRAIG
    In the last twenty years, Orthodox Catholics have come to expect their art to be necessarily about beauty. They expect it always and everywhere to lift one up, to be tinged with, to linger in the dimly-lit rooms of old-moneyed Europe, to be passed around among the best families, among like-minded gnostics, generous Jansenists. But these expectations have nothing to do with real...

  • TROUBLE IN THE DIOCESE
    DAVID CRAIG
    Trouble in the Diocese is a petulant, funny book of poetry. Its contrary protagonist/antagonist, the Apprentice, embraces life in both the large and the absurdly small. At the same time, he emphatically rejects the easy rigidity of doily-headed orthodox Catholics as well as the impulse in the Catholic literary Pixar world that seeks to serve two masters.Jesus and his Church are...
