Holy Orders From Far Above

Sister Mary Catholic never tells a lie Trust her in her order to be pure Every word spoken under the habit screams Penance requires suffering Nuns are likely to be abducted Taken aboard an alien ship for treatment Bug eyed tentacled creatures travel through space Looking for old ladies in long black robes with rosaries Who simply accommodate the flavor of the day in prayers Probes that don't always offer pleasure come with a price She returns from beyond the stars not quite the same Some orifices are considered sacred Sacrifices must be made for science Some times she cracks a smile while being violated These heathens will be converted by her touch A bar of soap to cleanse their awful breath Scalding hot water to purify dirty filthy minds from sin Is what religion requires for non human beings Sister Mary tells her story to the priest Who vows to keep her secret safe from outer space
