The Vicar


Outline: One shot at a job interview and the question takes almost a lifetime to answer. A 10-minute 'Flash Poem' still at development stage - hmm . . . maybe.
The Vicar



"Where'd you get that cauliflower ear?"

"Bar fights after too much beer."

"Have you heard 'The Message' yet?"

"Corse I 'ave, ya stupid git!"

"How was your nice Honeymoon?"

"Divorced the drunken Looney Tune."

"How'd you fancy being Vicar?"

"Will I get to meet my maker?"

"Take those clothes off put on Cassock."

"Don't be such a feckin Wassock!

"Dressed in best is not the biz

"Give me sandals just like His

"And a mucky coat to lose

"If a robber's on the loose.

"Don't make me a Big Flash Star

"Or give me fancy flash new car

"But people who can hear His word

"That stop resorting to the sword."

I enjoyed this witty rhyming bit of conversation. Only thing I would change is 'get' for 'git', or it may be that git is pronounced that way! Great idea.

Thanks Patrick,

Laughing I like the idea of a beer-swilling bible-bashing rough-and-ready vicar-like guy down amongst the yet-to-be converted. Cool Laughing

Thanks for that suggestion too; Wink I had 'get' originally but changed it to its correct spelling - with a Northern accent - and because the word was also in the first line.

Very Happy

Cheers
