The Last Supper

His disciples dined on fishes
As Jesus heard all their wishes
The die was cast
Judas was last
And had to do all the dishes

Who wouldn't? I saw The Last Supper at Forest Lawn, so doing all those dishes would be really depressing, but I understand Judas was tipped 40-pieces of silver (ware?) ... Aloha! Rico

Awesome, Rico. I once heard that Da Vinci painted Jesus first and Judas last, using the same man to model for both because he had changed so much. I cooked all my life and don't recall a man ever offering to do dishes. LOL Hugs, Carolyn

So many are complaining about lockdowns that I thought a reminder was in order that when people get together, someone has to do the dishes! Thank you for reading and commenting! Aloha! Rico
