An Insect's Punishment for Piety

There once was a church infested with bugs

Where a priest was giving a sermon

He didn’t use the Bible much

Except to smash the vermin

When a bug landed on the pulpit

He’d whack it and not blink an eye

Then he’d continue with his sermon

About how God was a merciful guy

But he later glanced at what he killed

And he found it rather odd

That he’d smashed a praying mantis

On his hard-back Word of God
