“Sonnet for Francis

When the queen kicked the bucket,
I felt zero loss - unless they go out of their way,
to make amends, like did real Queen Diana,
the entire bucking(ham) bunch are irrelevant.

However, upon the passing of Francis,
I do feel a certain loss, mainly because,
despite being the head of an atrocious church,
he had the potential for growth and tolerance.

Not everyone is in the position to be
outspoken against all inhumanities,
but if you have the guts to call out even some,
you have a life-long friend in me.

I cherish every human who shows
even the slightest trace of inclusivity,
as strongly as I feel resigned towards any ape
that thrives on prejudice disguised as piety.”
