He shone his flashlight around, looking for valuables
when a voice in the dark said,
'Jesus knows you're here.'
He nearly jumped out of his skin, clicked his
flashlight off, and froze.
When he heard nothing more, after a bit, he shook
his head and continued.
Just as he pulled the stereo out so he could
disconnect the wires, clear as a bell he heard
'Jesus is watching you.'
Freaked out, he shone his light around frantically,
looking for the source of the voice. Finally, in the corner of the room, his flashlight
beam came to rest on a parrot.
'Did you say that?' he hissed at the parrot.
'Yep', the parrot confessed, then squawked, 'I'm just
trying to warn you that Jesus is watching you.'
The burglar relaxed. 'Warn me, huh? Who in the world
are you?'
'Moses,' replied the bird.
'Moses?' the burglar laughed. 'What kind of people
would name a bird Moses?'
'The same kind of people that would name their Rottweiler Jesus...!'
