Ilene Bauer Poet Rhyme

Biblical

A California Costco
Labelled all its Bibles fake;
In other words, as fiction – 
Then recanted their mistake.

A pastor who was shopping 
Tweeted photos to his flock
And when they saw the “fiction” label,
Many were in shock.

The proper tag – religion?
Seems the answer to the question,
But if you have a thought, well,
Costco’d welcome the suggestion.

Funom Makama November 22, 2013 at 12:01 PM very interesting. I enjoyed it.

Andrea Dietrich November 21, 2013 at 10:52 PM good grief, what a blunder for them to make. Probably one of those dudes that doesn't believe in saying Merry Christmas was manning the store that day. I sure enjoyed this.

Jon A Cavanaugh November 21, 2013 at 10:32 PM Another wonderfully witty poem. Costco's bottom line is the almighty dollar as we know / So sycophant they'll recant and feigning error they'll eat crow.
