 Guess the pope?

 Candidate in the list of the Piggery

 

 “Guess the pope?” (who is in hell with us). The carthusian avoids any curiosity.  Treating them is spiritually and physically dangerous. “Candidate in the list of the Piggery”: they would prefer his silence about the «Epistula de delictis gravioribus». The Piggery is the pedophilia which smirches the church. They love the non transparency, concealment and postponement of problems. Their darling is the wonderful Wojtyla, politician and mystic.  “Guess the pope?”. Him? Possible? Hesitation of the carthusian.

 

Wednesday 10th March. The carthusian was impressed. On the tv screen, on the papal throne, instead of Benedetto XVI, a little monster. Cramped, wrinkled, bent, greenish. Phobic. Very slow.

 

Thursday 11th March. Morning. She invited him to sit next to her wonderful brazier. Quite cheerful. She was his old teacher of lyceum Miss Ina Brigida, dead some years before. Genius lady. She inculcated the taste for classical Greek and the beautiful into him. He woke up from the vision almost inebriate with joy: he was next to the goal, the Brazier, the burning Heart of God. And she communicated it with crackling cheerfulness. That very day the carthusian went into raptures for the comment of Origene to the Canticle of Canticles: the Divine Eros is everything.

 

Saturday 13th March. In the morning the carthusian is visited by the guardian angel of a young man from Farullo, a little place near Trevico, Vallata. Fresh, smiling, serene. Under a sky filled with light and prayer. The angel is named Nemi.

 

Sunday 14th March. Villanova. Port. 7,20 p.pm. In the car. Contemplative rest. On his right suddenly a cosmic explosion: huge globes of light, a red-purple meteorite of a superb beauty. Certainly angels. In jubilation for the success of the press release on «Epistula de delictis gravioribus». His companion cannot see anything.
