Pride Goes Before A Fart

A Funny Holy Dream

"Pride Goes Before a Fart"

 

I walked into Heaven, feeling quite fine,
A total boss, with a halo that shines.

 

I told the angels, "Hey guys, I'm the best,
Passed the test, and I've earned my rest."

 

But then one said, "Mortal, you're not quite right,
Just a sinner, with a silly sight."

 

I said, "What? No way! I've got the certificate too,
Printed on holy paper, with ink that's brand new."

My halo slipped, and I let out a toot,
The angels laughed, and God said, "What's the hoot?"

 

I tripped and fell, and my pants dropped down low,
Showing my sinful undies, with a "Sinful Sinner" show.

 

The angels laughed and said:

"This guy's a joke, a holy mess!"
"His pride's bigger than his holy dress!"
"He thinks he's saintly, but oh what a sin!"

 

God shook His head and said with a grin,
"Take him away, his pride's locked in."

I said, "Don't worry guys, I'll be back in town,
With more sinful delights, and a holy frown."

 

The lead angel cried, "Get the holy mop!
We've got a saintly spill, and a pride flop!

Call the holy plumbers, we've got a clog!
This guy's pride is bursting, like a holy bog!"

 

The angels laughed and laughed with glee,
As I was dragged away, still proclaiming I'm free!

 

I woke up with a start, in my bed so bright,
Realized it was just a dream, and laughed with delight!

My cat looked at me and said with a mew,
"You're no saint, human, you just farted here too!"

So... Was I right about it being more fun to write after picking the brains of those who came before?
