If you're an agricultural enthusiast,
Or gifted tower dwelling urbanite,
I know a priest who’ll bless your cockerel, favorite cow,
pig, sheep (with a predilection for lambs), tractor and
two-seater outhouse,
(I once saw a priest bless Farmer Paul’s load of manure).
He’ll lift a hand over
dog, cat, gerbil, cockatoo,
Foster children, adoptees, naturals and the unnatural.
They will bless people in love;
they will bless their love;
But not the union born from their love.
All love, he will say,
Is Divine.
God does not bless sin, said Papa.
Tsk, tsk... it's only a blessing, for Christ's sake.
Shame on the RC Church.
