there is no original
sin.
they are all old and dusty.
used
and reused.
the ten commandments
are apparently just suggestions
to most of us.
those tablets held by
moses, those words
carved in stone
are simply an ancient text
no longer in need
in these modern times.

people used to be scared
when the car
was invented.
how the lonely and
disappointed will stray
from their mates
and find love
in the next town,
so easily reached
with a tank of gas.
but now sin is just
a click away by phone
in the bathroom
with the door closed.
