Christ's Body For Sale

The Body of Christ has been mutilated,
Placed on scale balances for bidders, 
His blood used yet still in profanity-
Drunk by freemasons and the guilty.

The devil has seized it, in it he bathes and laughs!
Why not? why not?
Our Holy Lord has been desecrated
By clerical cupidity and nominal indiferences.

Look ahead son, look over there!
beneath that roof where congregates
menfolk and clerics
The Body of Christ 
is being weighed for the buyers.
