Goddess Worship
Posted: June 29, 2008
Oprah's popularity has become a religion…
Her temple is in Harpoville.
Her mantra? Simply "O."
She's worshipped as if God-in-flesh.
She thinks she is, you know.
With wealth and power, Oprah reigns
from sea to shining sea.
Her faithful sing her praises
like she is Divinity.
This goddess loves her worshippers.
From her all blessings flow.
She gives to those in desperate need
and those who watch her show.
She's on TV and radio.
She has a magazine.
Her profits speak a new-age truth.
Here minions have a scheme.
Her book club dictates what we read.
Her O Ambassadors
are missionaries for her cause
Her kingdom's evermore.
