Whiskey Band-Aid

preacher soused
thirst aid drunk ego
where'd it get him?

me? a film or two
and him hogshead breath
as vile as lucifer's crotch
offscouring refuse of society
where he hit revetment shattering
his dark glasses where he hides might
he be identified by others he ruined by
illicit ecclesiastical penile invasion

homosexual closeting
poetry sonorous of church
bells stained with tergiversation
tarnished by evil cover-up even the
supreme of gods couldn't stomach; ratsbane

who is this man?
he's your enemy and
quidnunc who interferes
in others' lives, he's a
predator among predators and
an adult version of a guttersnipe
of one who plays in the gutter

bishop of owls
in the forest know
his prelacy connections
which are no better than
he and indeed pedophiles
are cast examples of euthenics
in science of race improvement
through betterment of environment

whiskey band-aid
over the little social
blunder because life is
so much more than dirty
religion and sloppy mismanagement
of extortion and blackmail wasted
of life's seasons smite in the old
testament kill or slay demons of hypocrisy
this man is effete worn out by age and welcome
