Put Down the Rosary and Step Away from It
Police interrupted a Catholic mass in Australia on Thursday after they received a tip that some parishioners may be violating a COVID-19 mask mandate
-Police stop church service to make
sure parishioners are wearing masks (msn.com)
Police have bravely raided a
church in Perth
Some old folks at prayer on a
Thursday night
Acting on a serpent’s tip
(for what that’s worth)
Thus giving the wicked a
righteous fright
Advance, Australia, thou land
of the free!
Where prayerful insolence
will be suppressed
And by the way, how much was
the Judas-fee?
(Thirty Woolworth’s gift cards?)
We would want a snake to have
only the best
One doubts this was only
about some masks
What other reasons might
there be? one asks
