Redirected Poem by ivor or ivor.e hogg

The Phantom spoke. He said repent.
I replied I’m innocent.
The Phantom spoke again annoyed
You must repent or be destroyed.

I can’t repent what I’ve not done
I think my friend you should begone
You seem to have your wires crossed.
It seems to me you have got lost

I am Mother Superior.
I’m not who you are looking for
Why don’t you try the Vatican
where if you try I’m sure you can

find many there in residence.
Though they protest their innocence
Evil men, so called priests
who have behaved like rutting beasts.

Protected by the Mother Church
Which has obstructed every search
Misuse of power to delay
every attempt to make them pay.

The Phantom groaned, apologised
confessed he had been ill advised
and would go to investigate.
The Holy See, The city state.

I understand he is there still
his sacred duties to fulfil.
I rather think that he will be
kept busy for eternity.
