Unmentionables

In church, kneel down, stand up, give the priest room.
Week to week, “fruit of the vine,” his voice booms.
                       Mistake a doozy.
                       Priest’s a bit woozy.
Proclaims from the pulpit, “fruit of the loom.”

*Unmentionables - another name for men’s underwear
**Fruit of the Loom - Brand name of underwear

Went through this as a boy and teen until I had had enough. Never saw a woozy priest, however, though some would qualify as Doozy. Glad you enjoyed the poem. Keep writing and keep safe. / Maurice
