"Sextons of the churchyard

Have seen unblessed things; Ground no longer hallowed Has sprouted new graves. Descendants of clan That unsurped maternity hear whispers in their blood; This summons of the Fathers. Adherence to the principle Of 'man by woman born'... Anachronistic ritual Soon to be obsolete. 'Forgive me Father For I know not what I do; My grave beckons As irresistable as drawing breath.'"
