Talking of my worldpeace project
(the self-styled one, lest you forget)
yesterday i watched the cardinal of manila
bein' interviewed on the tella.

while he was answering questions
quite astutely
displaying an intention
to be progressive
championing rights
quite impressive
already.

nevertheless
it behoves one to mention
that the questions asked
were bang on target
i'm sure even Margaret
(from the days of Maggie)
would've agreed
'tis time to rein in
this breed.

which brings me to my other alma mater
not the catholic school
(you phools) wink emoticon
but the church of england-
-my college (where i gained a bit of knowledge)
-Stephen's.

The point being made
is that it's about time
for the non-pagan world
to call a spade a spade:
while it might be high science to say
that mary was true in her own way
'tis quite another matter
to force one's will
on populations
to not take the pill
or use rubber
or whatever.
(As they apparently do in the Philippines
But not in India and elsewhere, those philistines!)

And on top of that
to force
the flock
to not divorce.
-Chilling.

so since we already have
a whole lot of global conversation/s
on state/s of nation/s
and opinions
in the books of human rights
-figuratively speaking.

its now possible for the so-called
christian world
to come together
and recognize the realm/s
Of Darkness Visible.

that's outer-space to you:
-UV rays and spectrum, broadband and the lectern/s
from which natural resources are debated.

how these arguments play out
would then be a good shout-out
to the administrative world
to do its job
without fear or fervour.

This too shall pass
into the swirled tinsel-way:
we're humans.
human rights are in our DNA

And these corrections might be made
by a greenish thought
in a greenish shade.
