A winning team is like a cake
To make one, eggs get broken.
And if you hear or see one break,
It’s better left unspoken.
The screaming in the locker room
Stays there. And the showers.
Don’t ask, don’t tell and don’t assume
You’ve got some special powers
To intervene to change a life
You’ll only cause a scandal.
Curse the darkness to your wife.
But never light a candle.
Our world revolves around our Sun–
Glorious, eternal–
The One who made us number one.
All-Knowing and Paternal.
He wears a whistle on his neck
And only he can blow it.
Call the cops and sure as heck
He’ll be the first to know it.
The DA will throw out a hook
And hope to haul a fish up
So turn away and never look.
Just ask your local bishop.
When the status quo is defended over the individual rights of human beings, that is one of the most awful things there is in this world.
A person who willingly takes advantage of someone’s compassion, empathy or in this case, the blind trust of children…and not just that the blind trust of disadvanted children with no power. It’s disgusting. Really, beyond disgusting.
The perpetuation of it, the act itself….
What isn’t there to be outraged about?
I hope the victims of Sandusky find some peace in his arrest and conviction and I hope there are more convictions to come since it was more than just sandusky and paterno that knew what was going on.
Also I really really hope people stop worshiping Paterno. Seriously.
