Magdalene
shows her room
to Martha
(her parents
said not to
bring Mary)
Martha stares
at the walls
sees a small
crucifix
above a
single bed
glad you got
Jesus here
Martha says
Magdalene
looks at her
in a long
black slim dress
hair cut short
you still want
to be a
****** nun?
Magdalene
says to her
bride of Christ
I'd call it
Martha says
turning round
and looking
deep eyed at
Magdalene
want a drink?
what you got?
gin all right?
make it large
Martha says
no need to
**** around
half measures
Magdalene
pours two gins
both large ones
want music?
who you got?
Bill Fury
or Elvis?
Fury's best
Martha says
sitting down
on the bed
Magdalene
puts on the
Fury disc
then sits down
by Martha
both girls sip
their large gins
what would you
say if I
kissed you once?
Magdalene
says softly
just the once?
unless you
wanted more
why kiss me?
thought Moran
was your one?
like you both
equally
(though Mary
was more hers
sexually)
its a sin
you know that?
Martha says
just a kiss
no sin there
don't want to
go further
Magdalene
informs her
(lying through
her back teeth)
further what?
Martha asks
I don't want
bed you here
(fecking liar
her mind says)
why bed me?
I'm not one
for sleeping
in the day
Martha says
she sips gin
and ignores
Magdalene's
hand touching
her plump thigh
Christ sees us
sees all things
Martha says
Mary says
that some times
Jesus turns
a blind eye
does he now?
Martha asks
that Smithy
boy tried to
get his hand
underneath
my school skirt
I thumped him
on his nose
Magdalene
informs her
did it bleed?
his big nose?
on his white
fecking shirt
just one kiss
on the cheek
Martha says
taking off
Magdalene's
hand from her
plump warm thigh
finishing
off her gin
with a sigh.
