Maria’s Awful Disclosure

Mike Cooley

An uncontrollable child, given to fantasy
A leaded lobotomy left Maria wild
With a mob in her head holding Magdalene's down in asylums

Ghost-written pornography
Tailored to readers in need of a righteous excuse to indulge
Maria’s awful disclosures

Born of illicit liaisons the babies of Hôtel-Dieu convent weren't meant to survive
Baptized then strangled then buried mass infanticide
Something worse done to something more innocent's consistent presence
Alongside the tales of the times
The monks of the presents connection to Maria’s mind

If some know nothing, nothing's keeping some from knowing it all
What nobody saw is anybody's call
Predispositions turn spaces in men
Into thirsty pages for a hell bent pen

Professional victims with recycled lies
Stoking satanic panic in fear addled minds
Maria's awful disclosures

Ghost-written pornography tailored to readers
In need of a righteous excuse to indulge
Maria's awful disclosures
