Ringo Starr on Vatican Forgiveness: ‘A Publicity Stunt’
Ringo Starr is right: forgiving is a stunt.
Media focus on the clergy’s sexual crimes
Make the Vatican’s reversal in these times
Distracting from confession, being blunt.
Christian 60s fling with Sgt. Pepper’s band
Shocked Jesus’ band of preachers, even Rome.
Beatles bashed by pope from lofty dome:
Sex, drugs and rock and roll be damned.
Fearing laity and clergy swinging to the left
The church hung a right, hiding the nasty fact
That covering paedofilia was the internal pact:
Avoid public scandal with global moral heft.
Is Beatle John now yanked to heaven from hell,
To be with other Johns, once popes, pray tell?
