Doctor Ponsonby's Patented Empowering Electrical Rosary

Doctor Ponsonby’s Patented Empowering Electrical Rosary

 

*This ilke Monk leet olde thynges pace,

And heeld after the newe world the space.*

 

Chaucer, The Canterbury Tales

 

How out of date are simple wooden beads

An upgrade is what the Rosary needs!

 

Something to give your meditations spice

Connected to your electronic device

 

Beamed back and forth to The Cloud, you see

With mega-mega gigs of memory

 

Doctor Ponsonby’s Patented Empowering

Electrical Rosary is just the thing!

 

The Ave Maria is so out of date

It’s Ave ME now, ‘cause we’re all so great!

 

Make your prayers less about God, more about you

Signal yourself through sacred Tooth of Blue

 

A camera hidden in the crucifix

Enables you to take your selfie-flicks

 

The Pater beads count each joggery mile

Or kilometres if those are your style

 

The Ave beads are recycled with care

To save the forests, the rivers, and air

 

 

Designed in Germany, made in China

High-definition beads; there’s nothing finer

 

Buy the first (as advertised on tv)

And we’ll send you a second all for free

 

Remember: for weddings, funerals, and daily devotions

Let RAM and ROM go through all the motions

 

Doctor Ponsonby’s Patented Empowering

Electrical Rosary – O make it sing!
