Reading by Tim Foley: There are Polymarket ads in fortune cookies. There are pop-ups in our prayers. There are paywalls on the monasteries, and the monks are millionaires. Well little Johnny’s gone to war. He joined the McMarines. The Iranians must be liberated and blown to smithereens. Light a candle in the chapel, John, and pray to Western God, and listen to the homily the preacher wrote with Claude. “Oh Western God, please guide our drones,” the pious Johnny prayed. “That we may safely bomb their schools and turn their children gray.” The candle disappeared from sight a minute into Johnny’s prayer, and was replaced with hologram ads for DraftKings and Wayfair. Johnny placed his hand upon his heart with reverence and love and worshipped the blood-soaked, hungry god in the great big bank above. __________________ Reading by Tim Foley.
