Letter to the editor: A poetic rejoinder to the Mead Chapel controversy
No Good Mead Will Go Unpunished
Swooping down, a righteous vulture
Points his talons at “Cancel Culture”
Enough! he squawks, leave the pastard be
Let wrongs live on in history
Look the other way, you say
Disgrace ignored is quite okay
Just pretend Mead’s family name
Is not forever stained with shame
The truth, you insist, must be denied
And all the tears the victims cried
So what if they lost their testicles
Drown their screams with chapel bells
Even if you win your suit
The voice of God will not be mute
The Divine’s judgment you cannot quell
Heaven’s not where Mead will dwell.
