"Ok Tough Guy" a poem

[Brian37]

 "If It Sounds Too Good" By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet On Facebook and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)

 
The soothsayers 
And Seers
Oracles 
And prophets
 
Psychics
And Ouija boards
Homeopathy
Don't doubt them
 
Of holy men, old writings
Blindly beleive them
Don't ever dare
To even question
 
They are the fine print
In any contract
There to serve you
Payday loan or cell phone
 
They are the woman
Sawed in half
PT Barnum 
Has the last laugh
 
You'd have me believe
The claims of antiquity
Don't thrive on the same marketing
Of infomercial TV
 
Deities remove stains
Get your carpet clean
Read the fine print
Before you subscribe to Dish
 
Oxi clean
In omni fashion
Get's the mouse on the wheel
To chase utopia cheese
 
Reverse mortgage
Is what religion is
Henry Winkler 
Is a scam
 
You still own
Your brain
Until the bookmaker
Demands you pay
 
Racketeering
Is all the same
Be it old 
Or oxy clean
 
If it sounds too good to be true
It probably is
And that is why
All gods are dead
(end)
