THE MIRACLE OF THE TALKING BREAD!

A Brighton based Christian group claim to have witnessed a miracle, with members of their circle maintaining contact with the divine—through talking bread!
A. Fossil, speaking for the group, said, ‘Our circle met for a buffet last month and several members were holding pittas in their hands when, suddenly, one of them spoke! The bread, that is.’
Ms. Fossil, 72, claims the holy snacks astounded her and others by exclaiming: ‘Behold, man does not live on bread alone.’
‘We were shocked,’ she added. ‘I said, Crumbs!’
Since then, Ms. Fossil and her circle have met regularly to listen to their spiritual pittas.
‘We hold pittas close to our ears and listen to what they say. Sometimes they stay quiet, but on other occasions, we’ve heard them making strange noises. We’ve heard the sounds, emanating from the bread, of tiny footsteps, like children’s.’
So, it seems, when the bread is lost for words the group still manages to hear their ‘pitta-patter.’

THE LAW

The law is an ass!
It’s now an arrestable offence to visit a friend’s house if you fart on arrival—
It’s called ‘breaking wind and entering.’
The law is a blunt instrument,
But you have to be sharp to play with it.
‘Breaking the law’ would suggest that it’s fragile,
Exploiting ‘legal loopholes,’ you have to be mentally agile.
Law and order are electoral banners,
Dictating what acceptable behaviour, right down to manners is.
A thorough review of the law requires diligent scanners.
Naturally, society is based on rules, but why are they made by fools?
To ‘follow the letter of the law’ is frequently advocated, but seldom done.
A man receiving an entire judicial system through the post one day,
Knows these things are ‘sent to try us,’ or so they say.
