Story Outline (c)
By Michael Casey
well I was up at 5.30, I think
Tinnitus horrors keeping me awake
so I had toast and tea, hence my waistline
let Totoro our Ninja cat out
and then said a Rosary
and no I'm far from holy
and if you say I am I'll curse like a foundryman
so %%**()*()*)*90 , ok
So I sad a Rosary, 3 in fact
then as I'm dead on my. feet I almost fall over
which makes it dangerously going back up the stairs
as my Barry White dressing gown is so long
but at least I can sleep
until I wake again, 2 hours later
and I'm on a battlefield such is the noise
Anyway
as I said my prayers, I thought to myself
how reassuring is the noise the rattle of a rosary
so that instantaneously gave me a story
Here's the bones you can write it yourself as an exercise
DIY story
old lady on the wrong. side of the track
in the dark
is going to be attacked
but the sound of her Rosary jangling
strikes a chord, so the attack backs off
and follows in the shadow, now protecting her
this is repeated 3 more times
obviously when written up it is put together nicely
Finally the old lady reaches her destination
she is visiting an old friend
or maybe bringing Communion to a sick old lady
So she was protected already
and the sound of the Rosary was coming from her handbag
or maybe she was being accompanied by Saint Michael
invisible until he strikes faster than lighning
You decide you are writing this up as homework
So on her arrival
the old lady look all around and 4 very large men/boys
emerge from the shadows
Come inside, you look like catholic boys
I can break the bread, my dear old friend
would enjoy the company
for she is dying and this is her last communion
she had an eventful life
she was a prostitute, she said she had 4 sons
with 4 different men
the only way to protect them was to name them
Mathew, Mark, Luke and John
she lost her boys but she did name them well
And yes you have guessed it
The 4 lads in the dark, were the dying prostitutes 4 sons
So now they met again, and broke bread together
Communion Bread
and if you decide the 4 boys unite and their mother lives
Communion is Bread of Life after all
and that's the story from inside my head
before Dawn broke
Tinnitus has a lot to answer for
but maybe, it's God's voice calling me
to Pray More
or maybe Tinnitus is the sound of Sound or Souls burning
so I need to Pray More
On cue My Sweet Lord by George Harrison just started playing
on my Amazon Music Unlimited
My Sweet Lord......
