Gods and Goddesses without Free Will
The palace of the glamor kings and queens
Is guarded at its gate by guys with guns.
They will not ever let the silver screens
Around the world show us the blemished sons
And daughters of semi-divinities.
The chosen ones must flash their polished teeth,
Smooth torsos, and thick hair as trinities
That Plato would admit. Nothing beneath
That sacred standard will be bowed through by
Those sentries. They are under strict command
To keep a cruel and unforgiving eye
Peeled. Imperfections stringently are banned.
..To reach the realm of walled up deity
….Requires the death of spontaneity.
