Bless me Father
Bless me Father, for I have sinned. I have been with a loose woman.
The priest asks, Is that you, little Tommy Shaughnessy?
Yes, Father, it is.
And who was the woman you were with?
Sure and I cant be tellin you, Father. I dont want to ruin her reputation.
Well, Tommy, Im sure to find out sooner or later, so you may as well tell me now. Was it Brenda OMalley?
I cannot say.
Was it Patricia Kelly?
Ill never tell.
Was it Liz Shannon?
Im sorry, but Ill not name her.
Was it Cathy Morgan?
My lips are sealed.
Was it Fiona McDonald, then?
Please, Father, I cannot tell you.
The priest sighs in frustration. Youre a steadfast lad, Tommy Shaughnessy, and I admire that. But youve sinned, and you must atone. Be off with you now.
Tommy walks back to his pew. His friend Sean slides over and whispers, Whatd you get?
Five good leads, says Tommy.
