51st and Fifth. There stood<br />

Sam, gazing up to marvel<br />

at St. Patrick’s Cathedral.<br />

“A monument to the great<br />

Catholic Church,” he thought<br />

noticing the local marble<br />

and lavish Tiffany altars. Spires<br />

three hundred feet tall reach<br />

towards the heavens and<br />

shout a proclamation of power<br />

and wealth.<br />

Sam tiptoed around the<br />

stately figure, peering into<br />

the church through the mural<br />

of intricate stained glass<br />

that caressed the light rays<br />

into the building. Rows and<br />

rows of hard-backed pews<br />

silently preached restraint and<br />

discomfort inside. He could<br />

hear the pipe organs blasting<br />

symphonies of sound that<br />

echoed into every corner. Sam<br />

was in awe. He felt his chest<br />

inflate and an electric current<br />

run through his heart. It was a<br />

feeling he could only describe<br />

as divine. Sam felt safe, like a<br />

baby being swaddled by its<br />

mother.<br />

But it didn’t last. As he<br />

stepped back, the rest of the<br />

world rushed back into view.<br />

Stumbling back he could see<br />

the whole picture. This marble<br />

giant wasn’t as formidable as<br />

it once was in the 19th century.
