An Open Poem to Episcopal Bishop V.Gene Robinson

An Episcopal Bishop, says I,

Can have sex, if I wish, with a guy.

An act damned in the Bible -

Yet he claims he's not liable,

Thereby living his life in a lie.

Even worse, he would preach this to others,

To children, their fathers, their mothers.

Though God destroyed Sodom

From the top to the bottom

This lesson the bishop just smothers.

In claiming he knows what God meant

By the biblical words Heaven sent,

He dismisses Saints Paul

Peter, Jude, et al

While preaching his words of dissent.

May The Lord help this bishop recover

From his ill-fated choice of a lover.

May he give up that life

Reserved for man and wife

And help others the same truth discover.
