Tv. Bible Calf Poem by JOE POEWHIT

Tv. Bible Calf

Rating: 2.8


My golden calf before me.
Sit I do - sometimes for days.
Worship your images - chair style pew.
Your idols are the being and way.
The religion cast to all and few.

Idol hours spent with you.
My Heaven - hand on cue.
Many Gods you bring to me.
They cross the mighty sea.
Cruise ships like NOAH - receive.

Is it Satan's true religion?
The other channel shows division.
One more turn of the cue.
I'm in a church - Mark: 2
Such a question in all life.

What do I really worship?
Are they my Gods or Slapstick?
Yet, there on the big chair.
The one with the fluffy, fuzzy hair.
My simple Bible talking to me.
