A Catholic Conscience
Who would have a Catholic conscience? After the inquisition the torture After the burning of books. After the Jew hate and ghettos The bonfires and screaming pain. After South America After Chile and Spain. After Franco, Tiso and Pavelic After Pinochet. After the ratlines and the Nazis rescued by monks. After child rape and torture across the globe In Ireland and Chile and the cities across Spain. Who would have a Catholic conscience? Those who still chant clutching of beads In an institution which Has scarred mankind and made so very many sick.
