They said, they will make me Prophet,
It will profit.
They said, I will be demigod,
It sounds good.
They said, being God, bears no loss,
To be a gloss.
But, they also said, have no flaws.
Stop being it,stray or take rest,
Exploit this life, then, they shall wrest.
It will profit, It sounds good, to be a gloss.

Entry for Mindlovemisery’s Menagerie – Saturday Mix- Double Take.
Our homophone sets this week are:
Profit – money earned
prophet – seer
and
rest – stop working
wrest – take away
Also I came across Ovillejo Poem – while reading Whittled Words series of Brad Osborne.
So decided to write the Saturday Double take in Ovillejo Poem format.
Thank you, dear Nima, for your mention of my weekly series. You have tackled the Ovillejo with precision and beauty. I appreciate your generosity, kindness, and continued support! Much love! ❤😘
