in Nuneaton"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whenever you are alone<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Remind yourself<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That God has sent everyone else away<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So that there is only you and him<br><br><br>God<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Joe here <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Really I thought it was the Avon Lady <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What is troubling you Joe <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Have you seen a fat woman on the beach again <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No not as bad as that <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then what <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was that quote from Rumi <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Which one <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The one above <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hang on Joe let me get my glasses <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Oh that one <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why does it trouble you <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am on a railway platform <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I can see that <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Well as you can see there have been a number of cancellations today <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I love Nuneaton as much as the next man but I do want to get home to see Josie <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are no trains <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I see <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Well God if what Rumi says is true then there will be no people to run the trains and the coffee shop will remain closed<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is only a quote Joe designed to help those who are troubled <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am in each of you <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Open your heart to me Joe <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If I do that then I might drop dead <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Funny Funny Joe <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For that dose of wit I have cancelled the 12:17 as well <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sorry God <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Accepted <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But there is one thing that irritates me about you <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Is it the Josie thing <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not in the least <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One has to move with the times <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then what <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I have been reading some of your poetry and fictions Joe <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do you like them <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes although you can be rather oblique <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But you do have a bad habit <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sorry God it irritates Josie as well <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She does not like washing the sheets <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No not that <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then what <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In your work you sometimes refer to me as Sky Daddy <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is my pet name for you God <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Maybe but remember that I created everything in the universe and beyond and it is bad enough being called Phillip without you calling me Sky Daddy <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sorry God <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Joe <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you look up the line what do you see <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nuneaton Railway Station <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No further <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The road bridge <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Further than that <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I can see a train <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Is it the 12:17 God <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Has it got a trolley service with overpriced KitKat&#8217;s <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It has <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All stations <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sadly yes <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No matter <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thank you God and I promise not to call you Sky Daddy again <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Have a safe journey Joe <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I will <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speak to you later in my prayers <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hopefully but remember you have not seen Josie for three days <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She will be all over you <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Point taken <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speak soon <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not unless I speak to you first
