Having enough ties!

Mr Rope,
don’t get yourself in knots.
You’re not on trial yet
however, it has come to light
to ask you some questions.
Were you not placed
around someone’s neck
hanging from a high place.
I was told to hold, to support, your Honour.
Did you know the subject?
No, your Honour.
All necks are the same.
And why did you not
use a slip knot?
I felt the subject to be guilty, your Honour.
So you admit to being
an accessory to murder.
To a degree, yes!
Order! Order!
Will all things tied and tried settle down.
I herby sentence you Mr Rope
on the evidence provided
that you be burnt at both ends
until you become a thread.
I hope you cotton on!
Case dismissed.

I always know that when I find a new poem of yours dearest Andrew that I will be laughing..
You should consider putting all of these into a book. They are wonderful and delightful to read.

Your whimsical and surreal stories are a delight in the way they are told.

Thank you Ken. I have read three of yours of late which require a delayed response on thinking. But will delightfully comment on your exquisite writes soon.
