THE FRYER

Michael Edwards

 

THE FRYER

 

 

 

In the monastery kitchen

in a break with tradition

was a man cooking chips

with a fag in his lips

 

I was moved to enquire

if he was a friar

To which he replied

with consummate pride:

 

 

That suggestion’s untrue

it’s one to debunk.

Please let me tell you

I’m a noble chip monk’
