Conundrum

Sister Sidewinder just can’t take old Sister Snake.
They battle in the apses all night long.
One says "chalice," one says "malice;" it’s real hard to take.
Their dogma tells them everyone is wrong.
It would not surprise to see them battling with crosses,
en garde about the pews and sacristy.
It may be time for Saint Sublime to simply cut its losses
before one gets strung up by rosary.
