Clerical Error

CLERICAL ERROR

Mother Superior's no paragon.
Francis is not the Pope's real name.
The arch bishop with his dry wit
Doesn't impress me one little bit.

Mother Theresa is not my mother.
Father Harney means nothing to me.
Brother Benildus is not my brother.
Believe it or not, I have a family.

Sketch for a cartoon, clerical figures “not my father/mother/sister/brother”

If you like parodies, I have a dozen or so more on the Willesden Herald blog

"You want a little pepper with that?"

I dabble in cartooning. Sometimes I even amuse myself. I expect this gag has been done before, not sure, but probably a lot better. That’s one of the problems with cartoon ideas.
