HERE COMES RELIGION - AGAIN

Here comes religion - again

with its huge pillow for your bed

creature comforts.

To go with it you may include

      television, sofa, slippers, car

      etcetera  etcetera. 

      For the ladies a kitchen that's blessed

      in the latest hue

 creature comforts

 

and a hint of sky to cover you by.

For the race

      a human embrace when it's over

      (glory is always Godlike and greedily accepted)

creature comforts.

 

This way please for the chance

of a lifetime

a fantasy ride

a perfect bride  for now

'til the pillow subsides.

 

religion
