Idol Life When you've read the holy scriptures of countless wise fanatics When you've pondered the tallied tales of positive thinkers When you've sailed the seas of helpful suggestions and poignant promises When you've chosen choices cast in caring coy iterations When you've jumped up and down embracing the enthusiasm of enthusiasts When you've done years upon years of carefully crafted…eating…praying...loving When you've walked down endless miles of isles to alluring altars When you've run, climbed and stood in search of joy And When you have nothing more to show for it than a collection of geometric idols and savvy souvenirs Cast in cried out salt and stripped marrow… Are you done?

An Idol Life?
Idol Life When you've read the holy scriptures of countless wise fanatics When you've pondered the tallied tales of positive thinkers When you've sailed the seas of helpful suggestions and poignant promises When you've chosen choices cast in caring coy iterations When you've jumped up and down embracing the enthusiasm of enthusiasts When you've done years upon years of carefully crafted…eating…praying...loving When you've walked down endless miles of isles to alluring altars When you've run, climbed and stood in search of joy And When you have nothing more to show for it than a collection of geometric idols and savvy souvenirs Cast in cried out salt and stripped marrow… Are you done?
