By Chidi Anthony Opara
Amid the mutiny
Of mutinous messengers,
Amid the murmur
Of the multitude,
Paapa arise
And pronounce the ones
Robed in red robes
Princes,
The basilica brims
With the bounce of Paapa's princes,
The holy sea simmers.
With eyes
On the basilica's booties,
The princes
Proclaimed
Pledge allegiance,
The holy sea simmers.
Paapa retreats
Into the chalet of infallibility
Sipping from the chalice,
The holy sea simmers.
