Skeletons In A Cupboard Poem by Aniruddha Pathak

The church and Catholics are shocked,
A Cardinal has been defrocked,
He was found soliciting sex
That left many a clergy feeling vex.
Sure, the powerful prelate
For long was not celibate,
Defrocked, he now lives in a friary
Along with common hierarchy,
And cannot wear clerical vestments,
Of course, he still wears some garments,
Yet, thanks his cupboard-of-skeleton,
It has the old faith in church shaken.
