A Poem: The Knife and Fork Degree

by A. J. Disbrow

I don't attend the meetings,  for I've not the time to spare. But every time they have a feast, you'll surely find me there. I cannot help with the degrees, for I do not know the work. But I can applaud the speaker, and handle a knife and fork. I'm so rusty in the ritual, that it seems like Greek to me, But practice has made me perfect, in the Knife and Fork degree.
