Malachy
The end of Rome is soon enough according to St Malachy,
An old Irish saint whose prophecies; the hierarchy tends to hide,
He prophesized a hundred and twelve more popes from that time,
That makes for one more pope; so watch for a sign.
Or put 'St Malachy' into Google to get the information,
It's not pleasant and the whole place might be headed for damnation,
But the pedophile-priest scandal didn't help one bit,
And many former religious people; now don't give a shit.
