Am I Sacred

I want to write a poem about idolizing someone
When you idolize someone, know this
God will never let you two be close to each other
As He will always have first place
You will see that nothing you do
can bring you two together
He will put a wedge between you and that person
So you can never say I worship the ground you walk on
God is like that 
When you put someone on a pedestal
He will knock it down
And make sure you learn the hard truth
So don't do it my friend
Don't worship someone
Only God you will worship
That is all I want to say about that
So you can like me
Just don't worship me, okay? 
Lol comprende?

Inspired by reading a member's poem

All people are born equal , it's true they shouldn't be worshipped. we can have admiration, we all have our favourites. people ca take things too far. Loved Michael Jackson, but some fans treated him as holly. Like Demetrios has said. the creator should come first. Take care Pete.

Yes, my dear Toquyen, worshiping someone in the place of God constitutes a form of blaspheme and of hubris. The created should never be placed over the creator.
