we have to let you go

when the church
says
they're done with you
for a variety
of reasons,
you get a letter in the mail
saying that you've
been ex-communicated. 
you read down
their list of grievances
on the stiff piece of parchment,
stamped
by the bishop.
notarized by God,
you imagine.
sorry it says, but we
have to let you go.
your kind is no longer
welcome here.
