Habemus Novum Papam <br />Yes, indeed we have a new Pope. <br />I wonder, however, if we have a new hope. <br />As a matter of facts, we have two popes: <br />One is active and the other is passive, <br />Which means that one is inactive, <br />The latter was a hell of a man who shocked: folks, <br />Foes, rivals, parishioners and cardinals, <br />By resigning his post, <br />By becoming a different host. <br />He is still a holy man, in accordance to the latest polls, <br />A courageous priest, who reminds us, <br />That man is immortal and fallible. <br /> <br />Pope Benedict is enjoying his golden hiatus, <br />His retirement in a humanely divine castle. <br />I don't know much about the new one. <br />I can only hope that he is someone, <br />Who's at least similar or equal, <br />To the former, who was wise and simple. <br />May God bless his soul, <br />‘Cause he was able to realize <br />That he was becoming unable <br />To lead effectively, and to prioritize. <br />As a matter of facts, habemus duo popes, <br />Yes, indeed, habemus duo pontifices.<br /><br />Hebert Logerie<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/habemus-novum-papam/
