Reminds me of the joke: Moses comes down from the mountain. “Men, I’ve got good news and bad news. The good news is that I got the commandments down to only 10 in number. The bad news is adultery is still in there.”
I know I’ve posted my poem on a few other comics, but not here, far as I remember, and if I did, I’m sorry. But here we go with “The Ten Commandments Are Obsolete”:
The Ten Commandments? Obsolete, my friend
On me (your anti-conscience) please depend
Instead of one god only, have a few
If you get lucky some might follow YOU
And honoring thy parents makes no sense
Unless you move back to their residence
And never take the good Lord’s name in vain
Unless, of course, you’re pissed off or in pain
And Sabbath-honoring? So yesterday
In these enlightened times sin every day
And don’t create an evil graven image
Unless thereby you do your rivals damage
Bear no false witness against your friend or neighbor
Unless, of course, it lessens your own labor
And stealing in this modern day and age?
Both Wall and Main Street think it’s all the rage
Adultery can be a lovely game
Preventing sex from being “same ol’ same ol’ same”

Both Wall and Main Street think it’s all the rage
Adultery can be a lovely game
Preventing sex from being “same ol’ same ol’ same”
And coveting thy neighbor’s wife and ass
Can be a treat, but only if the lass
Be well and truly formed, so here’s my rule:
Where wife is lacking, covet only mule
Concerning killing, causing rigor mortis
Only R.J. Reynolds ever rivals Phillip Morris

My silly literal inner eye pictured Moses spinning those tablets like a Chinese circus acrobat spins plates on the end of a stick.
