Piccadilly Selfie Indulgences

What is a selfie ?
Beyond the primary narcissistic characteristics
The transfer of cherished or less cherished moments
Into an essentially forgettable memory chip
The gadget is now in charge of your history
You may fly like a butterfly from flower to flower
And at a flick of the mind or the finger erase all and start anew
Long before the advent of technology
Pope Urban II sold indulgences for the lazy and wealthy
Who would not go fight at the crusades
Front row tickets on Heaven steps
