The lines of defense are broken. The walls have crumbled. The little ones are in danger. The woman grows anxious. She sees the church withdrawing, no longer standing strong. They are confused, like sheep without a shepherd.
Voices are raised but of little avail. The Holy Father speaks too quickly. Words flow which should not. He chooses people who like his thoughts. The Church moves far to the left. People are dismayed. How long? His pontificate stretches into its second decade. He wants to plunge ahead. The dates and the agendas are set. The people to guide his projects are in place. Soon, the Woman will step in.
