I was strolling around a heritage site yesterday
When I stole a small stone from near an archbishops grave
I was told that I would be cursed for my dishonesty
And expected to be run over by a bus within the hour
But nothing happened at all I was not even vaguely punished
About an hour later I saw a delivery bicycle on the pavement
Which apart from being dangerous was obviously illegal
Within seconds the rider had collided with a homeless vagrant
And had fallen from his machine on to the road with much violence
There had been obvious injuries caused and a crowd quickly formed
I did not intercede as I was deep in thought
Was I free of the dreaded archbishops curse
Or had I passed it on to others less worthy than me
I asked God for an answer but I was told he was fishing
As Wednesday’s and Friday’s were his days off
