Vestry’s Underbelly
Saint Paul, 16 April 2005
In the vestry’s underbelly
Vibratos of dominos vobiscum
Obscure allegory with fuming censers
Wherein the unimaginative abide
In the vestry’s underbelly
Shrill shortcomings in
Illustrious adornment
Revered by bankrupt supplicants
In the vestry’s underbelly
Prescribed paeans of praise
Behold black leather missals
Notching betrayal's betterment
In the vestry’s underbelly
Depraved bottomless erections
Cloak silken vestments and
Carouse with cassocked celebrants
