Being Bad: A Good Friday Poem

Inspired by an unholy article …

tableware-237798_1920

Being good on a Friday entails:

stifling a yawn;

washing up the dishes;

mowing a parent’s lawn;

reading an article called ‘I used to be a lesbian’ in a holy magazine;

and deciding to be tee-total bore!

 

Being bad on a Friday entails:

yawning with mouth wide open;

washing up the dishes in murky water;

forgetting to mow a parent’s lawn;

accidentally depositing said article in a recycling bin;

writing a response to the said article with the title ‘You used to be a person I would like to have known, but now you are a bigot!’;

and slinking off to the pub for a Friday evening tipple!

 

Today, on Good Friday, I am bad!
