An Ex Alter Boy's Quick Witted Letter to the Catholic Church
Dear father,
Oh father
If that be your 'name'
'Your kingdom come'
'Thy SHALL be done'
But you are the one to blame
You are the cause of all this infamous fame
The cause of all this burning pain
You tarnished my bible
Twisted my friends
Cursed my children
But that isn't the end
Countless others felt your wrath
And travelled down this sinful path
You ruined innocence
You pleaded and begged
With the 'head' of the 'steeple'
You lied through your teeth
Claimed to be 'good for the people'
Then the 'man'
With the toothy mouthed smile
Clouded their heads
Got to stay for a while
Ruined more lives
Caused more pain
Begged for forgiveness
The routine was the same
The church covered up
Because you were so 'good'
'The best they have had in years'
If only they understood
You lied and lied
Like a good convict always should
Father,
Oh father,
Don't deny the facts
You've made me so dark
There is no going back
Father, I must do this
I hope you truly forgive
For there is no escaping
What you did
When you open this
You will see all of your lies
Your pathetic life
Flash before your very eyes
You probably won't be alive long enough
To finish this letter
But maybe that will be
For the better
Father oh father
For I have sinned
Father forgive me
I have no will to live
Father oh father
Have a nice time in hell,
Very
TRULY yours,
'Shh, Don't Tell'
