To any and all Catholic friends in PoetBay, this poem is written with tongue
in cheek....No disrespect intended


It's Good A Catholic I'm Not

If I was a catholic, I'd be,
When speaking confession-ally
Nervously frightened
As this priest I enlightened
All about terrible me

I'd find it hard to relate
My wickedness to this prelate
Wouldn't know where to begin
Fearing my numerous sins
Would cause me a hell of a fate

So it's good a catholic I'm not
As I hate being put on the spot
The High Holy See
Has no use for me
About me he couldn't give squat

My way of life's not theistic
My journey's more realistic
It's a really good bet
The wiser I get
I'll secularly remain atheistic

Alot of people feel the way you do. I never grew up in religion but found it in my teens and wanted, needed the bible truth desperately. Still finding more of the truth.

I used to be a catholic.
I was so much a catholic that I had gotten cath-a-holic.
Now, I'm an atheist, thanks god!
