The Closet-Clergywhether you like it or not, your priest, your pastor, your minister,

Coaches and Catholic Clergyas the kids begin to come out
again
to declare the violation of their innocence to the world
so that finally these pompous pedophiliac pederasts
can be dragged out of their lairs in order to face the world for
what they are

Every Clergy Is An Oxevery clergy is an ox
wearing heavy yoke
drawing wooden plow
across the farmland
of people’s vibrant sins
endeavoring to weed

Lecture Given By ClergyLecture Given By Clergy
We were given a lecture by the clergy,
With much energy exhibited in liturgy,
Done deal;
No appeal,
Who later had been accused of perjury.

Sinning Saints Once MoreWhen I was in seminary

Wonderland
A country in Africa's kaleidoscope of culture,
Unique and blessed, with natural and human riches to nurture.
Roles blur, names defy convention's might,
Husbands are "Baby," sons are "Daddy," in this whimsical sight.
Saturdays are sacred for weddings' joyful sound,
Car keys and iPhones float, pocketless, without a bound.
Relatives rush...
