…but the news about Canon Giles Fraser resigning from St. Paul's Cathedral because of the deliberations about using force against the Occupy London protesters has occasioned a higgledy-piggledy.

Higgledy piggledy
Canon Giles Fraser
Protected the people
who camped near St. Paul's

The funny thing is that
Ecclesiologically
Camping in churches
Is for canons in stalls.

It also puts me in mind of the old limerick, slightly altered here, collected by Gershon Legman:

The venerable old Dean of St. Paul's
said, "Concerning them cracks in the walls,
Do you think it would do
If we filled them with glue?"
The Bishop of London said, "Balls!"
