Dial a Priest.

Dial a Priest.

A Poem by andrew mitchell

Dial a Priest.
" Forgive me Father
  for I have sinned."
"Go on! Confess my son."
" Well, I've written down
  politically incorrect statements
  on the church, women, society in general
  followed by wicked, wicked thoughts
  on procreation methods."
" If you know what I mean!"
" What are these writings called?" asked the Priest.
" Poetry Father."  Said I.
" Wait a moment please."
"Son, are you there?"
"I've just had a word with Mother Teresa."
" Just have six Bloody Mary's
   and keep writing."

Wish the Catholic church was as sympathetic in reality! As always a humour filled piece of poetic mischief!

Man, this just made me thirty. Hahaha I could use a Bloody Mary right about now, but I'll only got beer.
Holy s**t, I was trying to forget to remember to forget what I said on my last confession. But the drink was the one talking...so I guess, I'm absolved. Lol. I loved this. Thanks for the chuckle.
