Forgive me, father, for I have sinnedA Poem by Guillaume CouguéThe Pope goes to confession.Forgive me, father, for I have sinned I have stripped dead Papa of his fingers And thrown him like Romulus himself. 'Your sins are forgiven; go in peace.' Forgive me, father, for I have sinned Many men have died so I may clutch Salem, I wonder has any land soaked more blood I wonder could a land be less Holy. 'Your sins are forgiven; go in peace.' Forgive me, father, for I have sinned I confined them for two centuries and locked them in in darkness. 'Your sins are forgiven; go in peace.' Forgive me, father, for I have sinned I have let my force make clean children dirty I have told those who need to, not to protect themselves, and they die. Forgive me, father, for I have sinned. 'Forgive me, Father, for I can not, you have sinned too much,' © 2011 Guillaume Cougué |
