April 18th

"You shall not make for yourself an idol, whether in the form of anything that is in heaven above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth." Exodus 20:4

how blessed we are,
God
that we no longer worship
those idols made of stone,
of wood, of various metals
now seen as artifacts in
museums with little cards
implying how foolish those
ancestors of ours were, 
which gives us more 
energy and passion and
focus for our devices we
keep in our pockets and
mounted in our cars 
so that we are not alone,
who are next to us 
as we sleep to keep 
watch over us and 
to awaken us for any
and every meaningless
text, meme, reel from 
our new pantheon of gods -
InstaFaceXSnapTokTube
residing high on Mount Cyber.
