It's spiritual election time!

It's election time

and a new God will be elected

to rule the universe.

Amongst the psychological,

psychedelic, sociological

spiritual shamanism

there is a God,

and angels are giving out

how to vote cards.

In the election of a New God

which is the Old God in disguise

but just revised.

Votes are coming in now!

The Biblical All Stars are polling

very well.

God's left wing

not so well

while the right wing

appears to be storming through.

Buddha is doing favourably

but the Catholic God

not at all....( a pause in remembrance )

due to a long line

of abuse on its followers.

Hence the Methodist God

is picking up in the ballot,

looking good.

It's quite a spectacle

everyone dressed in shining, wondrous white.

I wonder what laundry powder they use?

Looks like its a close call everybody.

Who will be elected as the New God

to carry on the belief legacy?

Apologies from the Sun God who

could not attend due to its

highly regarded position, sky high.

The blasphemous group

was disqualified and the Atheists

were not allowed to attend

because it was Gods only.

There you have it!

Stay tuned for more 

bombastic hilarity 

in the future.

Great poem with humourus touch. Some scientists may be opposing gods of the world. I want to favour demons instead of God's as demon's understand emotions more than God's

Thank you Arundass for your words.

You know, dag nab bit... its gonna be the monetary god he always fixes the elections and wears the best clothes:) Why don't they sell heavenly white soap powder absolution in a box would be a great ad slogan I would buy it... "how many people did you sacrifice for your ego today? look no further my friend... heavenly whites got your back and rinses away all of your stains!" I wonder why they didn't send Bad Bunny a ballot? Rodents deserve a vote too.... LOL

[andrew mitchell]

this is so clever...where do we humble poets vote?
i'm not sure it matters because i don't think i am registered...
i like "the belief legacy"---reminds me of how Emily used to see her friends as needing that crutch of religion...belief in something, that belief she did not share.
maybe she saw the "bombastic hilarity"---

Thank you J for your kind words, and yes I have seen this too with people who believe but it’s mainly a crutch or a security blanket or like people need guidance to function properly. Anyway it’s just a satirical write.
