Poem

Le Christianisme

Wilfred Owen
So the church Christ was hit and buried Under its rubbish and its rubble. In cellars, packed-up saints long serried, Well out of hearing of our trouble. One Virgin still immaculate Smiles on for war to flatter her. She's halo'd with an old tin hat, But a piece of hell will batter her.
