I found this on some feminist website :'(
The Pope's Penis
<small>by Sharon Olds</small>
It hangs deep in his robes, a delicate
clapper at the center of a bell.
It moves when he moves, a ghostly fish in a
halo of silver seaweed, the hair
swaying in the dark and the heat -- and at night
while his eyes sleep, it stands up
in praise of God.

Well, then you're one lousy Catholic, because, unless you've been ordained, you have no power to give penance to anybody. ;) Secondly, I don't think Sharon Olds sinned by merely writing about the Pope's penis. It wasn't erotic or insulting, I don't think; it's just weird. It's like listening to your parents talking about their sex life.

Lol i found that one quite funny, even if it was a bit short.
Still what escapes me is why should that description just go for a pope? Doesn't the same go for any guy who wears a robe? lol
