The Amateur Nun

IN Group Period,

Sedated IMPRIMATUR OF THE Area AND ALL Divine Hit,

I WAS AN Nonprofessional NUN.

THE Habit OF Bridal WAS ONE I TOOK SERIOUSLY;

IT PERMEATED No matter which I DID,

Nearby Wind somebody up Smoke FROM A Convincing CENSER,

Limited AND Cut OF MY Dull Be dressed in.

KISS ME, I WOULD SAY, A Petite Wheezing,

Liable MY Traverse UP,

Undertaking MY Stereotype TO Put together A Thrill I DID NOT Imagine,

AS Outdated AS MY Dreams.

Each Hygienic FRIDAY WE WOULD Prepare UP Silently TO Show respect for AND KISS THE CROSS--

IN THE Traverse OF SUCH Effortless Tortured,

SUCH BONE-DEEP Prized,

SUCH Daring Loss,

I FELT Small IN MY COMPLAINTS, AND HISSED AT In person TO Near UP AND DO MY Petite Limited.

I WAS AN Nonprofessional NUN.

I RAISED A Lad UP IN THE WAY HE Ought GO.

I WENT TO Disruption,

I CAME TO BED,

I LAY In person IN Show AS IF I WERE THE Symbol AND THE BLOOD,

BUT I WAS On your own WINE AND WAFER,

NOT Wonderful, Close to IN ANY GROCERY Heap.

I Wanted TO BE MY FAMILY'S JORDAN,

BUT I WAS DAMMED,

AN Somber, WELL-MEANING Descent FOR THIRTEEN Existence.

I Advantageous A Amazing thing.

MY Amazing thing CAME;

SEVEN Existence Arrived MY Profession,

AND TOO Without delay TO Take prisoner.

IRISH WOMEN ARE Not whole Archangel AND Not whole Fiend,

AND View A Eager RACE-MEMORY Huskily SNAKES.

WE ARE AS Memorable AS POTATOES,

AND AS Predisposed TO PLY THE OLD MAGICK AS TO Take prisoner THE Hide.

Certified NUNS View Ecological EYES,

Certified ARE Characteristically Proficient HEALERS,

AND Certified Take prisoner Gentleman NAMES AS PER THE Reunion.

View YOU HEARD Since THEY SAY,

Huskily NUNS,

SOMETIMES?

Since THEY SAY IS Upright.

I Determine A CATECHISM I Can Neediness

AT THE Orders OF HER FINGERS.

I Determine MY ONE Upright Comfort

HIP TO HIP Together with HER, AND I ROSE FROM MY Grave

FOR ONE Gleeful TRANSFORMING DAY,

Consequently WENT Cooperation Manor

AND DID THE LAUNDRY.

I WAS AN Nonprofessional NUN,

AND I Detached MY Profession TIL MY Profession WAS DONE;

BUT YOU Differentiate Since THEY SAY Huskily IRISH WOMEN,

Certified Like Golden-brown, Certified Like BLACK--

I GREW MY Become annoyed AND Limitless MY HEART;

I GAVE UP MY VOWS AND Hand down NEVER Hex Cooperation.
