monk meaning

drove home yesterday
from the abbey
me n the boys
the best n bravest
spent the weekend
said the prayers
entered silence
drunk the wine
(n the whisky)
listened to the word
n hopefully the spirit
were fed
in da stomach n da spirit
sang our hearts out
raided the library
talked with our monastic friends
grieved their loss
discussed our pain
tired to heal some hurts
slept
talked
read
walked
waited
hoped
loved
looked back
looked forward
just were
there
