Replying to a comment on:
sic homina ad papyrum (Free verse) by bondjedi
we didn't understand the sinister
intentions of the parish priest
when
he
volunteered to change the diapers of
all the young men in the village
if this were the late twentieth century he might
have derived no uncertain pleasure from a website,
maybe
but it's 1923 and we live in Italy so no one dared to say
a word to the Cardinal
Now our shame is manifest and real and the implications
are stunning especially if you
believe in a trinity
when I offered to substitute altar girls for boys I
was exorcised, excommunicated and shunned, shut out of
my
heavenly
host
now my wife and I wander the barren wastes and curse
the parish priest and his strange lusts
